On 23 January this year I experienced a massive heart attack that required double bypass open heart surgery. Complications hit hard and I'm finally due to go home from the hospital tomorrow. They have had to go back and work on even more problems but the doctors seem to be happy with where it...

We are so blessed with all the different designs and capabilities of the guns we have to shoot. No safety DA,manual safety SA or DA,DA-SA with safety and/ or decocker,SA revolver, DA/SA revolver,the list goes on and on. I may shoot most of them in a day's fun and I very well can make a big...

I have only good things to say about mine. I like the modern plastic guns ok,but the handling, balance and accuracy of the Springfield are among the best of any pistol I've ever shot. I wouldn't hesitate to take it anywhere with me. Actually if I'm going to be in a vehicle for any length of time...

They are both very good rifles. I ran into a problem with the CAV I had and it went away. It was a 223 and would only chamber shorter rounds reliably. There's a lot of space in front of the bolt and once a round clears the magazine it has a tendency to catch on the edge of the chamber and not...

One thing to keep in mind is the number of states that are going to straight wall cartridges for hunting. That would probably make me lean towards the 45-70.

I have yet to shoot one that wasn't accurate. I'm sitting in the hospital room right now trying to get started on thinning things out myself. Open heart surgery a few weeks ago didn't get the job done. An operation this coming weekend will make the decision for me.

I use Shilen deep chamber barrels if I'm not wanting to buy a reamer and it's a rifle that I want to shoot well. The last one I did was a 280AI. It's their Select Match Grade and I have only good things to say about it. I have the headspace set exactly where I want it and all I had to do was use...

I've had a 365XL in the Wilson Combat grip module for over 5 years now and I have no reason to look back at anything else. It has a straight trigger that is well broken in with the manual safety and it's by far the best shooting small pistol I have ever owned or shot. Perfect size for carrying...

I have 2 of the M&P 2.0 pistols and they're very dependable and accurate.One is a .40 out of the Performance Center and it's more of a target/range pistol.I also have one in 10MM and it's my in the truck/carry gun that is with me more than any of my other pistols.The M&P design is lightweight...

I think for hunting in close woods I'd also go for something in the 2-7,3-9 or even a 1-4 would all be good choices.I have more Leupolds than anything else.They check more boxes than other scopes in their price range.I like to watch for used ones on Gunbroker,and I just found out today that...

I may have made a dumb decision on what I'm going to hunt with this year,but I'm going to be using my Remington M7 in 308 for my main rifle.It's a very fine little deer rifle.A few days ago I was looking at half a dozen or so nice lever guns on the wall of the LGS.They had Rossi,,Henry and a...

Back in 1980 I was working for my Granddad on the farm he left to me and my brother.Back then there was some money to be made from finishing feeder lambs and we fed about 2,000 a year.A lot of times,there would be a dog or two that got a taste of blood and would chase the sheep until he caught...

I use a Mac Tools work stool.It's padded and the height adjusts with the pull of a lever.It also goes with me to the range.

I have the WC Enhanced P320 with the action tune and it's just incredible to shoot.I also have 2 WC grips for my P365XL.I have the P365XL grip and the P365 grip.I use the XL grip unless I need to shorten it up for summer carry.

I jumped in and bought one.Mine has the tannish greenish synthetic stock.The stock design felt so good to me that I just had to have it.We shoot a lot of offhand at 50 yards and the balance and weight of the 2020 just plain works for me.Like most guns,the action was a little rough for the first...

I have a RIA 1911 in 10mm and when I first got it,it wasn't at all reliable.I found out that the ammo I was using didn't go well with the pistol.I was shooting 165 grain Sig/Sierra V-Crown bullets seated to the length the manual called for.The big hollow points dragged on the feed ramp and the...

I spray a good blast of WD-40 on a microfiber rag and keep it in a ziplock bag.Every week or so,I pit more on it.I usually have 5 or 6 guns a day to wipe down after I get done working on them and/or shooting them.It seems like the kerosene in the WD-40 goes away and leaves the oily stuff on the...

Eight miles from my house is a small public range that only goes out to 100 yards,but it's in a great location and it gets used by a lot of people.There's no R.O. but most of the time it's well disciplined.I've noticed the most misbehaved people are the younger crowd,most of which like to make...

I use Devcon and cooking spray for a release agent.I use the threaded studs in place of the action screws,I think Forster makes the best ones.I put pieces of drinking straws over the studs to keep them from sticking and not letting it come apart once the epoxy sets up.I tape off all but the rear...
