I want to buy a good, reliable and accurate bolt-action rifle that, with a good scope, can easily achieve 600 yard and beyond shooting. So what rifle and scope would be the best for the price. I am willing to spend up to 1200-1300 dollars. Maybe 500 dollars for a quality scope and the rest on...

Hi I recently purchased a PTR 91, a HK91 clone, with the intention of a SHTF rifle. Upon shooting though, found that it wasn't exactly the experience I was expecting. Because of its high recoil and "odd" design, I found that my accuracy was suffering. Also came to the debate of whether .308...

I haven't gotten a chance to go shooting yet, but she is functioning ALOT better after all the internal cleaning.

Thanks. It really wasn't about the cost. It was really more about the amount of pitting. In order to have removed all of it, they would have had to remove the brand markings, so yeah.

@Baba Louie- No, as far as I know, he wasn't an FBI Agent, but he was a police officer here in New Mexico during the 70's-80's. Also, just a quick question. Was the Model 13 ever used during any wars like Vietnam.

I recently recieved a revolver from my Grandfather. It is a Smith & Wesson Model 13-3 with a 3" barrel and it has the round butt. It does not have the original grips, instead it has the Pachmayr "Gripper" for the Ruger Security Six. He would always have it stored in a leather holster. Also, he...
