    I'm pretty sure it's Josef Rakušan.

    at what distance does a .223 become = a 22lr?

    According to my copy of the Sierra Infinity Suite, a 55 grain .223 bullet will be going approx. 900 Ft/Sec and carrying 100 Ft/Lbs of energy out at around 800 yards.

    Best target ammo for 22?

    By all accounts, the vast majority of the field shooting .22 in the upcoming Olympics will be firing RWS R50/R100 or Eley Tenex.

    A 2nd amendment poll

    It appeared to accept my (Yes) vote just fine, in that it didn't spit any sort of 'Poll closed' message or similar at me. By the way, congratulations to you guys on the success; don't get complacent though, use it as a jumping off point to enhance and reinforce your rights.

    Made In America Does That Include Your Guns?

    Three of my nine are American (S&W, Remington, Mossberg), but like Shung above, I'm in Europe, so I consider that to be a pretty good effort. Just for the record, the others are Italian, Czech, German, and Finnish.

    Can we not all go back to contemplating this quote?- :evil:

    Shooting a Cow! Help!

    Another vote for the .22LR. I've dispatched a fair few cattle over the years, and a properly placed .22 will drop them like you cut the strings on a puppet. The diagram on this previously posted page (http://www.cdfa.ca.gov/ahfss/Livestock_ID/Euthanasia.html) shows the correct shot placement...

    Nit-picking Col. Cooper's Third Rule

    Resting on the 'bump' on the end of the slide release on my CZ-75 TS. Our IPSC Range Officers will DQ if they can't see clear daylight through the triggerguard.

    Irish hunting poll

    Thanks to everyone for responding, and thanks too to those who felt unable to vote in favour of the hunt, I understand and appreciate your reasons. As far as I know, Ward Union is the last remaining hunt of this type in these islands (Ireland and Great Britain), and I don't doubt that in time...

    Irish hunting poll

    Just to clarify my own position on this: I'm not overly enamoured with the whole concept of a carted stag hunt (or fox hunting with horse and hound either, for that matter), and I wouldn't be campaigning for their introduction here if they didn't already exist; they do exist however, and I'm...

    Irish hunting poll

    I deliberately left the link as plain text so that the poll servers don't log the links as coming from here, a heavily pro firearms/hunting site. I've seen on U.S. based polls I've participated in, where the anti side start bleating about 'orchestrated campaigns' to skew the results of 'their'...

    Irish hunting poll

    Thanks for the support folks, there's another one here- http://www.ireland.com/ macFarlaine: thanks for reading my post and your response. As I said, I don't participate in this, so I'm going on the information I've gotten from the people who do. Past experience has taught me to be somewhat...

    Irish hunting poll

    Hi all. Not strictly a shooting/firearms subject, but it's closely related and has implications for the shooting/firearms community over here. There's an ongoing controversy going on here in Ireland about an outfit known as the Ward Union Hunt, and their trials and tribulations in renewing...

    Will a BB gun penetrate 12 gauge wire?

    ... or even the whole hacksaw. Do you guys have Junior Hacksaws over there (the U.S.)? This sort of thing- http://www.diytools.co.uk/diy/Main/p-19413-faithfull-junior-hacksaw.asp They weigh practically nothing and would be easy to attach to the end of a long pole as jeep-2 suggests...

    What forums do you frequent?

    Here and TFL, obviously, and a 'General Purpose' forum that covers all manner of subjects from an Irish perspective: http://www.boards.ie/ We even have a Shooting sub-forum there: http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/forumdisplay.php?f=466
