    Waterfowl hunting question

    Ok, I was just watching a hunting show and you know the typical duck blind scene that they show. In once episode, the hunters were showing off two ducks after the dog had retrieved them. One of the feet on one duck was moving around so the duck was obviously alive still. Now here's my...

    Remembering how to shoot

    Since I went overseas I haven't shot (like I shoot in HP) for over a year. I finally got to shoot a match last weekend and disapointed myself a little with a mid-Expert score...but I took notes of all the things I didn't do right and tried to work them out over the last week. Sunday I shot...

    IDPA Thread Announcement - READ

    Guys, I know that this situation is very difficult and infuriating. So far you have all done a very good job of keeping cool heads, even though your venting. I just wanted to remind everyone to keep it that way no matter what happens. Besides, you can do a lot more if you are cool and...

    AWB sunset....disappointed in you guys

    Come on guys, we just have Monday left! Let's hear some cheers! I don't know whether they just got lazy or whether our work actually meant something, but I'm quite happy this thing is dead. I know, I'm kinda counting chickens before they hatch, but we're practically there. Rather than...

    THR members at Camp Perry

    Last week, Hpwr223 placed 27th in the National Trophy Individual (out of roughly 1300) with a 293-12x and Blind Rat finished 117 with a score of 287-5x. Both would have made the Leg Point cut, but I believe both shooters are already Distinguished. Jon C. unfortuately did not make the cut...

    MAB Barrels banned from NRAA Ranges and linked to Metal Storm

    Ok, that's pretty convoluted. Recently a Highpower shooter in Austrailia had an MAB barrel split. Apparently several of them have done this, and now the NRAA has banned them from all NRA ranges in Autrailia. Here's the official letter from NSWRA: Now, add to this that MAB is very...

    A Rifleman goes home...goodbye, Labgrade

    Yesterday, while his wife was at work, Labgrade (Alan) died in a house fire. While we may all have disagreements at times, I knew Alan well and I know that he was a good and smart man. I ate with him on his porch, the only part of his house that is left standing. He was a Rifleman, for sure...

    Looking for some reasonably priced accurate .30-06 ammo

    I want to check out a new (to me) rifle this weekend, and I don't have .30-06 dies yet. Can someone recommend some reasonably priced ammo for me to see how my barrel is? I know my own mantra is "every gun is a law unto its own" but hopefully I can get a concensus on a brand and bullet. Thanks...
