I had a Gomo Big Cat 1250 that I sold last summer. One day I got bored and took an old cell phone, stuck one of those little orange dots on (you know, the ones that come with the shoot n' see targets) and set it on a cinder block at about 90 yards. Coulda been 100, I just paced it. I fired about...

Tanks for clearing that up for me rc.

Thank you guys so much for helping me out so far. It is greatly appreciated! I have no intention of shooting military ammunition. So, Willie and MistWolf, if I am understanding this correctly, it means that the 5.56 chamber could tolerate hotter loads than a .223 chamber?

Wow! That's pretty much night and day.

@Reloadron, yes, that's the barrel I'm looking at.

Will I see a loss of accuracy if I'm shooting .223 in a 5.56 barrel? Im thinking of going with a 20" 5.56 heavy barrel from Stag because A) It wont break my bank B) It's threaded, and I cant find any other barrels that are threaded that WONT break my bank. I've done some research and I can't...

Congratz on the No. 3. Beautiful firearms. They're getting hard to find these days. I have on in .44 Mag.

I know it's been a few days since this thread was updated, but, Willie, I must say, I'm truly jealous of your lifestyle. XD I live in Michigan and most of my time on the water is spent in canoes and kayaks, most of which I've built from scratch. I've only dreamed of going to the places you've...

I leave my modern in-line loaded (un-primed during storage obviously) during deer season, but that's as long as I'd care to leave it loaded.

For me, it depends on the day. I do almost all of my hiking/hunting with my cousin so we have 2 guns. If its small game we're after one of will have a .22 and one of us will have a shotgun with various loads ranging from birdshot and waterfowl loads to 00 buck and slugs. If I'm "shotgun man" I...

I'm a big fan of the Ruger No. 1 and No. 3 (the No. 1's shorter, less attractive brother). I have a No. 3 in .44 Mag, which is one of the rarer models. It is extremely accurate for a pistol caliber rifle.

Nope. I'd rather drink draino than set foot in Wal-Mart. But I've seen it every time I go through any other ammo section.

I guess I'll add my 2 cents here. I like the idea of a light, but I'm hesitant to put one on an HD shotgun, but IMHO it just gives the bad guy a nice big bullseye to start shooting at. Same thing with racking a round into the chamber to intimidate an intruder. What might cause one bad guy to...

I've been eyeing a Stag Arms upper as well. Since This is my first AR as well as my first build I don't know too much about the quality of parts by different manufacturers, just what parts they make.

Info regarding .22 ammo shortage So I was in a local hardware store recently that has an annex that they turned into a nice little gun room. Anywho, while in there checking out various used guns with my buddy, I got the chance to talk to a Federal rep. I asked about the ammo shortage and he...

I'll shoot this one next time I hit the range. We have rain forecasted for the next few days unfortunately, So it'll be about a week.

I have an 870 Express Mag and I love that thing. I've never had a single jam with anything from light trap loads to 3" turkey loads, 0000 buck and slugs. I put at least 1000 rounds through it last summer alone. I dropped it out of a duck boat once, fished it out and proceeded to shoot 4 more...

I'm new here, but I'll add my 2 cents. In my house the MAX distance to take a shot is about 15yd. And that's in the unfinished part of my basement. An HD type shot would likely be taken at a maximum of 8-10yds. If you've ever shot even a round of birdshot at that distance, you know that the...

I'm building a rifle for varminting (mostly yotes and woodchucks) and target shooting. The barrel will be a 20" heavy barrel without a brake/comp. I was also looking into a 24" barrel, but I want to keep the weight down as there's a good chance I'll be carrying it in the woods. I'm going with a...

Thanks! I'll admit I'm not the greatest shot in the world with iron sights, but I don't suck. And I'm not gonna pass up the chance to enter a competition as it will be the first one I've ever entered XD
