Anyone ever voluntarily want to become the proverbial "one rifle hunter"? I've gotten to the point in my life to where I only want to deal with one; a Vanguard in 30-06. It's just easier to deal with only the one rifle, and not have the others messing around in the back of my head. No more...

All I'd like to swap out mag releases on my Gen 3 G17s and G19s. Opinions on what has worked for you is appreciated. Thanks!

Does anyone know anything about this bullet? All I know is that it's a 150 grain 0.284" SP bullet. Would like to know who made this, and maybe find out its BC. Thanks in advance!@

All Need some input concerning fired Lapua cases out of an m96 that I own. Once-fired Lapua case: Case head diameter: 0.478" Diameter at shoulder: 0.443" Diameter at midpoint: 0.459" Case length: 2.153" For comparison, the dimensions for an unfired Lapua case are: Case head diameter...

My experience with this brass is just okay. I'm able to get around 5 reloadings before having to toss out a case. The reason for this is the brass is undersized according to European specs. European made 6.5x55 brass has a case head dimension of roughly 0.480". The Remington 6.5x55 brass...

Does anyone have any load data using a 129 gr. Hornady Interlock, Winchester/CCI primers, and Supreme 780? This would be for a 1903 sporterized Swedish Mauser. Thanks!

All I just recently bought a stainless, Italian made 92FS. I believe it to be an Inox, but I don't see that term anywhere on the pistol. What would be a sure indication that it is, or isn't, an Inox?

All I've got an XD9 Service that I might be selling. The pistol itself is great, accurate, reliable, and sturdy. The problem is that I just can't seem to stop placing my strong-hand thumb on the slide release. Also, the grip is actually a bit small for my hands; the thing seems "crowded"...

I recently bought an M96 and it came with a one piece Redfield base. I need a set of high rings in order to get the bolt clearance I need, and was wondering if a set of standard Leupold high rings would fit on the Redfield base. Thanks!

All Just thought I'd post data I've collected; I've been roaming to and fro on the 'net and have noticed that there's not a lot of data concerning 780 and the 7mm Rem. Mag. Powder: Winchester Supreme 780 Bullet: 150 grain Remington Core-Lokt Primers: CCI 250 and WLR Shot strings...

All Obama's choice to head the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs, Cass Sunstein, supports "animal rights". Apparently, one of the powers of this office is the ability to "...to block rules, including those that protect hunting and conservation." Link to the article written by...

I've got a bunch of 780 and am curious to see if anyone's used this powder in the development of a load for the .30-06. I'd like to try it using a 165 grain Hornady BTSP and Federal 210's. Anybody have an idea of the range of weights for this powder that would be safe?

There's a guy on Gunbroker.com claiming that Beretta 92 mags will work with an XD9. Any truth to this?

http://www.midwayusa.com/eproductpage.exe/showproduct?saleitemid=189223 Bought 1.2K a year ago, and now they're back on sale. Was wondering who makes them?

All I'd like to get into some long range practical rifle shooting. Mostly for grins, but there is the possibility to expand my horizons should I discover that I've a knack for it. I've not a whole lot of cash; about $2,000 for the rifle, scope, rings, and bases, is all I can afford. I...

A month ago, I'd bought a Marlin XL7 in .30-06 for my son to use when we go deer hunting. I'd wanted something somewhat inexpensive (under $350), yet not cheap, and in a common, respected caliber. With those few requirements in mind, I went to the local gun store to browse. The only two...

What a weekend. All day Saturday, there were two young men riding ATVs on the rural road where I live. They were driving a bit fast, but since my grandchildren and children were away for the weekend, I had no problems. Later on, roughly 9:30 PM, my wife was getting a bit annoyed. She was...

All I've run across three rifles that have piqued my interest. 1st is an Interarms Mk X (Manchester England) in 7mm Rem. Mag. Walnut stock with nice stain and no unsightly blemishes, black fore-end tip (assuming it's ebony), bore is shiney, no obvious wear at the throat. Blueing is...

Friend of mine at work just sold me an old Marlin 336 (pre-safety), in very good condition (no rust and just normal wear on the stock). I'll be using it as a back-up for deer and hog, a primary for hunting in thick vegetation, and as a HD/Truck gun. When hunting with my son, it'll be in his...

Does anyone here have any experience with this powder, http://www.rexpowder.com ? It comes in 1 kilo canisters for $26 (what gamaliel shooting supply is charging).
