    Elmer Keith's Guns For Sale

    Man, I'm in the middle of reading Hell I Was There right now and would probably do some unspeakable things to land one of those rifles. Maybe they'll go for less cause Elmer was more known for his handgun work?

    What .338 Win Mag Bullet For Deer?

    Took a deer with a .300 win mag, I was looking for elk but saw a deer, tagged a bit of a shoulder and a bunch of meat got shot up. 150 grains out of a .300 win mag at about 80 - 100 yards is basically a hand grenade launcher in my opinion. But as the saying goes, opinions are like...

    Georgia Hog Hunters Wanted!!!!

    They oughta set up some type of a deal for out of staters to come in and hook them up with a local farmer or rancher that needs some hogs killed. That would sound more appealing than paying the fees I've seen on some of the ranches that have hog hunting I've looked into.

    80 percent lower, who has done it

    I've part way done it, bout got as far as ordered the lowers, 2 of them cause I know I'm bound to butcher up the 1st one pretty bad, and the jig kit. That was a year or so ago and they've sat on the shelf ever since. As far as legalities, I'm sure that someone will chirp in with the exact...

    Browning B-92

    I've got a Winchester Miruko Model 92 16" and hated the adjustable windage sight that it came with, I ordered this dovetail semi-buckhorn and it's pretty darn accurate. I've gotten a few grouse with it and lots of plinking...

    What bothers you most about brick and mortar gun stores?

    Lack of customer service. When the employees behind the gun counter or in the shooting and hunting department would rather just gather up and chat amongst themselves than help a customer, that makes my blood boil and my veins start vibrating as I leave that store. From then on I will gladly go...

    Trail Cameras

    I picked up a few Browning BTC6, Dark Ops cameras and for them being the most expensive of the Browning line, while still only costing 130 or so I am happy, these are on the normal setting at 4mp in my backyard while I'm testing them out trying to make sure I get the placement down before I set...

    30-06 rifle/scope recommendations under $1,000

    For that budget, I'd try and find a FN made Model 70, either the Sporter or Featherweight model and top it with a good Redfield scope, they have a few styles and reticles to choose from, and that should leave your budget to get yourself rings, bases, a nice sling and swivels and be dead on...

    FN made Model 70

    I've also got a Model 70 that I bought new for the action, and had a local gunsmith build a custom rifle for me with it, that thing is in a class of it's own though!

    FN made Model 70

    Just picked up a new Cabela's 50th anniversary Model 70 last week, sat in inventory dropping the price until I finally 'pulled the trigger', that is only 220 serial numbers away from my Model 70 Alaskan that I've had for 3 years now. When I got it home and had it next to my Model 70 that I've...

    So, about Winchester...

    Here's what started out life a year ago as a SC made Model 70. Fit and finish was nice from the factory, but my gunsmith made it a little bit nicer, 30-06...

    Holder: We Want to Explore Gun Tracking Bracelets

    Firearms have always been, as far as the 'personal realm' goes, mechanical in nature, I don't really like the idea of them gumming them up with electronics, more stuff to potentially fail on a personal belonging that is more likely than most others to be 'when you need it your life depends on it'.

    Benelli Montefeltro Quick Question

    Here's the only decent picture my cellphone camera picture deemed me worthy of having, wrong side of the receiver, but the other side is just as nice so you can see why I don't want to go messing this one up!

    Benelli Montefeltro Quick Question

    Thanks RC, you seem to always be one of the first to help me out both here and in the rifle section. I tried google, but not much came up for 'thing that makes semi auto shotguns not cycle' didn't post many hits! I was kinda hoping for something internally, spring? I know this is the inertia...

    Benelli Montefeltro Quick Question

    Picked up my first auto shotgun this weekend, a Benelli Montefeltro Silver Ducks Unlimited gun at one of their banquets. As I said this is my first semi-auto shotgun, haven't had a chance to throw some lead through it yet but I can tell I'm going to want to use this shotgun on the trap line...

    I like the look of wood on my rifles, but I am very seriously considering a McMillan 'McWoody' or 'Dark McWoody' for my Model 70.

    Hunting With Classic Firearms

    Have a original 1886 in 40-82 that hangs out in the safe. Trying to get my old man to figure out the history of it, but it had to have come in the valley around the turn of the century. Whenever, if I draw a Bison tag I'll probably break down and get dies, brass and try to figure out how to load...
