Okay I bought the rifle because I wanted a 243 and I liked the nikon scope. But my question is, are all the savage (10,11,16 ect) recievers the same? I heard they're the same as a model 10 just with a better bolt and spotter barrel. If this is the case that should mean anything from a model 10...

I know each gun is different and each kind of action is different but let's say a semi auto. My marlin 60 gets realllyyyyyy dirty with any wet lube and I noticed even my bolt actions get rather dirty with rem oil with teflon in it. I want as many people opinions, stories ,ect on this. What do...

Hey guys i was just reading on some wildcats Specificly the 22-243, I know the 243 is a little "brutal" on barrel life. Not bad but certainly not good. Just wondering what the worst wildcat for barrel life or just period was.. I think the 22-243 would be quiet bad on barrel life and with the...

I made a thread reguading SS223 however I didn't buy a 223, im buying a 243.. First off im getting a BOLT ACTION, please no replies saying it won't cycle in a semi auto. Secondly if you live in Indiana you may know that they're proposing 243 and up for deer, I know it's not going to be...

I went squrriel hunting with a 16gauge modified choke #6 shot , ar 30 yards i dropped a squrriel that was eating a nut, as I was cleaning it i seen only very few pellets hit and almost all of them was a complete pass through, the others stuck in the hide on the other side, this got me thinking...

Silvertip i think is hungarian LPS steel core, yellow i think is hungarian lead core heavy ball and the plain round is i know Chinese light ball, any body ever tested any of this stuff? I have a polish wz44 (polish m44) and i know some of the 7.62x54r rounds has caused sticky bolt badly but i...

I'm refinishing a 1955 remington 870, well it looked like it was factory done however! After i got the laquer or whatever they used back then off and kept applying stripper i was puzzled because it looks rather dark for it being stripped but thats not my concern. Those black lines and...

My grandpa gave me 2 remington 870s today because he has a mossberg 500 12guage 3 1-2 inch chamber and he doesn't need these other shotguns. One was a 20 guage, yea nothing special there right? But the one that cought my eye was the 16. I have no experience with a 16 guage but plenty with a 12...

I have a .17hmr which load wise really sucks, its a little to much for squrriel and can be questionable for coyote. So I'm thinking about getting a .223 bolt action and loading some sub sonic loads for squrriel which i think a subsonic fmj will just pass through and do what a .22lr does, but i...
