    Buy a Savage Axis II in .280AI or sell a Ruger Hawkeye to pay for a Kimber Hunter in .280AI?

    I don't have experience with that particular Kimber (shot an axis on several occasions, good gun). I have the same rule on buying guns that I do with tools. If I use it once a year I buy the cheapest I can find. If I use it often, I spend the money on quality.

    30/30 revisited

    I'm sure I'll be called a fudd again, but I agree with you 100% a 44 does everything I need it to do and Is the rifle I pick up when I need something done. My other rifles are for fun, just sitting waiting for plinking. As for being a "fudd" I believe an American citizen should be able to buy...

    some misconceptions about 357 and 44 in carbines

    Mavracer, I believe the only way to reduce the problem is by setting the goalposts AND parameters first. There will still be cherry picking, artificially handicapping etc. So instead of "what is the best pistol caliber" or "which is better the w, x, y, or z" change it to "what is the best...

    Hatin’ on the 300 BO?

    I "hate" on the 300 bo a lot, not because it's a bad round but because of the "best bullet ever" hype.

    The “Chicken Coop” Defender. Another rifle debate.

    I would go for the 9mm carbine (tho in personal preference the Beretta cx4 storm instead) I believe it would be more fun as a plinker and have the benefit of being able to be used for a few more applications as you noted earlier. Plus if you go with Beretta it will give you an excuse to buy the...

    Any Ruger 77/44 fans?

    I have had a totally different experience. If I do my part I can clover leaf 3 rounds at 75 yards. It's my go to rifle unless there's a need to go past 120 yards.

    Henry Big Boy 44 mag scope

    I have a FX-II SCOUT 2.5X28 DUPLEX on it, very slim, balances well, and a long eye relief. One of my favorite setups by far

    223 rifle

    A friend of mine got a huge promotion and he had to move to a less gun friendly state. I helped him renovate his house and gave him a small loan till his house sold. He was a "preper" of sorts and only wanted to bring a few thousand rounds of hollow points considering where he has to move to. I...

    223 rifle

    Yep, it's pmc 55gr fmj My budget is sub 1800 "sight included" ARs are great, just are not for me. I'm also right handed. As far as application, I do not know. I already have rifles set up to fullfil any application I need. I have never been interested in 556/223 so never really put much...

    44mag, 450BM, 350L.

    I hear great things about the other cartridges but I always go to the 44 mag for anything within 150yrds. I also agree with earlthegoat2 that a 3-9 is too much scope, I've tried it a few times and it never lasted more than 2 shooting sessions.in my opinion a ~2.5x fixed scope is a perfect...

    Boyds stock wood

    I have done enough research to understand that I need some help. I picked up yet another ruger 77/44 stainless with and thought I'd pair it with a s&w 6" 629 and make a "usable showpiece" for my man cave. Before I start, I'd like to make sure I cross my T's and dot my I's. I would like to have...

    Scout scope mount

    I bought another ruger 77/44 (already had a boyd stock and sling on it) at a rediculiously low price. I also bought a used leupold scout ii scope a year or so ago (I might be wrong on the name) I have spent a few hours online and cannot find a way to attach a scout scope mount. I messaged XS...

    257 weatherby

    I have a friend who has a 257 mark V, he shot out the barrel and is planning on buying a cheaper rifle to feed. He has not mentioned selling it but I think he would for a good price. Before I make an offer to buy it I thought I'd get some input from more knowledgeable folks. 1) How much would...

    .44 mag vs 30/30 in 16 inch barrel

    I'm a huge 44 fan, if you have a revolver to go with it there's no beating a pair of 44's I didn't answer any of your questions. Sorry.

    Primer maker?

    Is there a machine or press for sale that makes primers easier to reuse or make? I have been reusing mine but it's a pain in the rumpelstiltskin. Thank you
