    Hunting Rifles - Did I Make A Good Choice?

    So far I only have two Contender barrels, a 14" SSK .22 rimfire and a 14" SSK .223. Both have Burris LER scopes in 2-7x32mm. The only difference between the two is the amount of recoil. As you can see, I like long barrels.

    Hunting Rifles - Did I Make A Good Choice?

    I've already bought Leupold scopes with target knobs and Mil-Dots in 6.5-20x50mm for my Sendero bolt actions and already have outfitted several with Harris bipods. Since they will be a little too heavy to carry all day, I think I will concentrate on extra barrels for my Contender and Encore frames.

    Hunting Rifles - Did I Make A Good Choice?

    It's a .300 Win. Mag. I wanted to stay with standard calibers and not get too far out into the weeds. I will be retiring to Western South Dakota. I guess I wanted the .22-250 for ground hogs and coyotes, the .25-06 for deer and antelope, the 7 mm Rem. Mag. for long shots in the wind, and the...

    Hunting Rifles - Did I Make A Good Choice?

    mljdeckard, "Is there a power range or distance requirement you have that isn't being met?" Thank You! You have refreamed the real question better than I did. Is there something else that I need? Why would I need a short action rifle? I hate to admit this but I have been so busy working...

    Hunting Rifles - Did I Make A Good Choice?

    All great ideas! I do reload. I failed to mention that, my family of lever action guns consists of a Marlin 39A in .22 rimfire, a Winchester 1894 in .30-30, and a Marlin 1895 in .45-70. I also have a Freedom Arms .454 Casull with a 10" barrel. I guess I was just concentrating on the calibers...

    Hunting Rifles - Did I Make A Good Choice?

    Among my various semi-automatic rifles, I have an AR-15 fluted, floated, flattop in .223 with a 24" barrel, a Browning BAR Mark II BOSS in .30-06, and a M1 Garand in .30-06. My family of bolt action rifles consists of a Ruger 77/22 rimfire and 4 Remington 700 Senderos with 26" barrels in...

    Beretta 1201FP and Benelli Super Black Eagle Questions

    Dave and the guys, It is definitely a software problem!!! I pitched fastpitch softball 3 to 5 times a week for 20 years. I have very good eye to hand coordination and with a little practice, I have no doubt that I will get a whole lot better. The reason I chose the Beretta and now the Benelli...

    Beretta 1201FP and Benelli Super Black Eagle Questions

    Dave, I hate to admit it but the only time I ever shot skeet was with my 1201 and I was 3 for 20 or 25 … whatever the number is supposed to be. I am just terrible at shooting stuff that moves but am great at stuff that stands still. Now that I'm retired, I promise to buy a clay pigeon thrower...

    Beretta 1201FP and Benelli Super Black Eagle Questions

    Dave, Thanks for your advice. I didn't realize that so many years had passed since I bought the Beretta and I didn't realize that a high tech gun might ever go out of production … silly me. When you drive a big truck all over America, it's pretty tough to find time to shoot. Before that, for...

    Beretta 1201FP and Benelli Super Black Eagle Questions

    I bought a Beretta 1201 FP with a 20" barrel in 1993 and I was always going to buy a 28" barrel but my job got in the way. I just retired and now am able to devote more time to my guns. I just bought a Benelli Super Black Eagle II and then I started to remember that I was going to get a longer...
