    Question for 1911Tuner. Series 70 Gold Cup Sear options

    I've recently picked up a series 70 Gold Cup. It shoots great but the trigger is 5 1/2 pounds. I'd like to drop it to 4 pounds for Bullseye competition. If you'd explain the extra parts in a GC (not to be confused with the series 80 non-Gold Cup) for other readers of this thread, that might...

    Re-chamber H&R model 12?

    I have an H&R M12 that I'll never shoot in competition. I was thinking about rechambering it to 22wmr. Will the bolt/lock handle the added pressure? It looks like there's plenty of throw. Wouldn't this be a sweet little varmint gun? http://www.chuckhawks.com/compared_17HMR_22WMR.htm -Steve

    Rang Report- Marlin XL7, .270winchester

    My son got good grades through last session and wanted an upgrade from his Rossi singleshot 243win. His "Triple Play" (Rimfire, .243win and 20ga barrels), was quite adequate for a starter rifle for his 13 and 14 year old hunting season. Price point to jump up after selling that was less than...

    What entry level bolt action rifles have a detachable magazine?

    OK, I'm looking at a Marlin XL7 in .270win for my son. Only draw back for a modern hunting rifle is that it doesn't have a detachable magazine or even a drop open floor plate. I love the Tikka, but it's a bit out of the tax bracket right now. The boy says to sell his Rossi Triple Play, .22...

    Can anyone substantiate this?

    And we must remember that the military 5.56 round is not designed to kill. At its inception during the Viet Nam war, it was meant to maim and require more of the enemy to attend to the wounded than alow another of the enemy shooting back at our U.S. troops.

    My 13 year old shot Bullseye last night!

    I'm happy with my average right now so I'm taking the rest of the series off, (I think), since I have enough scores submitted for league. So last evening I took my youngest boy. He's a smaller guy so he shot my slightly customized, iron sighted, SS MKII Target Bull barrel, two handed . This was...
