Thanks for the input so far. Mine is a browning X bolt varmint special. It has a heavy barrel. This was a short run rifle by browning. It has a 26” barrel in 22-250. http://www.browning.com/products/firearms/rifles/x-bolt/discontinued/x-bolt-varmint-special.html That is a good point about...

I have a 22-250 and my wife really likes to shoot it. I am considering getting her one. She is short and a compact or short stock would be more comfortable for her shooting than a full length stock. I have a few options, and would like input. The only 3 readily available compacts in 22-250 I...

I can’t speak to the glove, but have a couple of questions and a similar experience to share. First the questions. Where are you at as far as healing and physical therapy? You may need to stick to lighter recoil loads for a while longer. Also, have you asked the doctor? They may be able to...

I buy guns and ammo and reloading supplies and knives and ..... the list goes on. Most of them get used. I find things I want/like, but when my wants change, I seldom sell to buy something different. So the viscous cycle continues. And my safe gets a little more cozy inside.

Very interesting stories. I will share as well. I was raised with both paternal and maternal grandpas who hunted, as well as my dad. I got a Daisy BB gun when I was young, and spent hours in the back yard shooting pepsi cans and whatever else I could set on a stump and knock off with a BB...

I have a question about the Colt that maybe someone can help with. It came with stag grips as well. I am trying to figure out if these would have been original or not. I suspect aftermarket. I may be looking to sell them, but not sure yet. I like the look, but they are really wide and I...

I try to haggle on things I find on Private Party deals. If I go to a retail store and I have found something substantially cheaper online or another store, I will ask them to match it, otherwise I buy it where it is cheaper. Cars, guns, whatever, if a private party lists it, they will usually...

This thread reminds me of an incident at the gun counter of Sportsmans that I witnessed. I was window shopping at the time. A guy walks up to the gun counter with his girlfriend. He asks the clerk to show him a pistol, as he is shopping for a CC weapon for his girlfriend. The clerk hands him...

Depending on the particular bullet, some actually shoot better seated away form the lands. I had a similar issue with a Browning A-Bolt 280 and speer bullets I used to shoot. I started at SAAMI length, and tested one it chambered fine, so I loaded about 15 to test different powder charges, I...

I have a Kimber 1911 and always wanted a Colt, I have always preferred the 1911 platform. I have had a 380 Colt for a while, and it needed a big brother.

Went to the range today. First time out with this Colt. Very happy with it. Pretty accurate (as expected) and no fail to feed with any ammo or mags used. This is my 2nd 1911, I have wanted a Colt for a while to add to the collection

Hello. I seem to keep ending up reading on this site as I search for things related to shooting (reloading, maintenance, general info, etc.), so I decided to join. I am in Colorado, hunt mostly deer and elk. I rifle and archery hunt both. I have recently been more into recreational shooting...
