    Can .308Win do everything that .375H&H do?

    Can .308Win do everything that .375H&H can do? I have a Winchester M70 in .375HH and also Remington 700 in .308. I'm trying to see if I could pair down to just 1 bolt hunting rifle, and that'll be 700 .308. So my question is if 308 can do everything 375 can do, or would I regret selling the...

    Is Burris Fullfield II 3-9x40 scope decent?

    Just got brand new Burris Fullfield II 3-9x40 scope in trade. Optics look pretty decent to me, comes with ballistic plex reticle. I'm wondering what's the concensus on it. I plan to use it for .308 for medium range work, probably 200-500yd. If it's not worth using, then I might as well...

    Hi all, I just got 2 Colt Combat Commanders in 9mm. They were imported by Century Arms, and from the tag info, they're Israeli Police issue. Does anyone have any info on the 9mm Combat Cmdr? I haven't seen one before, and it's pretty cool. What's more interesting is that the older one has...

    Does anyone shoot Winchester Safari .375 H&H Magnum??

    Just wondering if anyone here shoots Winchester Safari .375 H&H. Is it a good magnum caliber for medium to large games? How's the recoil, ie. compared to .308? I've never fired .375 but I wonder if it's worth having over .308. Thanks.

    New rifle - Remington 700 PSS/XCR? with LTR type fluting, and AICS stocks?

    I just got a new rifle. It's a .308 Remington 700 PSS on AICS 1.0 stock, and Nikon Tactical 2.5-10x44 scope. Do you have more info on whether this combination would make it a good medium range rifle? I'm wondering if it's enough glass for the gun, or maybe I can use a cheaper scope since I'm not...

    I just discovered lever-action is loads of fun!

    I've never owned or worked a lever action rifle until I recently bought this old used Winchester 94 in 30-30. I wish someone had told me earlier about how fun lever action is. Even though I have semi-auto rifles that takes care of the extraction and feeding automatically, working the lever just...

    Why are revolver triggers generally better than semi-auto?

    I have a couple of revolvers, a Smith M65 and a Colt Trooper, both are really nice and crisp in single action. Even in double action, the pull is still very nice and with clean break. They're not customized and just the way they came from factory. I simply could not find an off the shelf...

    How do I tighten scope in the rings for tight fit but not crush the tube?

    One of the scopes I must have overtightened because it left some marks on the scope tube. I want to avoid doing that again, but also be tight enough not to have any movement. Is there a way to make sure that I don't crush the tube, and still have a solid hold on the scope? Does it matter...

    Is Springfield M1A worth more than Polytech M14S, ie. $800?

    I can get a Polytech M14S at around $800, and also a Springfield M1A for about the same. Is one better than the other? I think that's a good price, but not sure which one to pick. I heard Polytech has good receiver, but is Springfield that much worse, considering it's made in the US?

    Just bought a Polytech M14 (IDE import?) and a polymer stock

    Hi, I just got a Polytech M14 rifle, it says "IDE USA SFLD MICH." so is this an IDE imported gun? I heard that they tend to be better than earlier imports. Is this something I should be careful about the headspacing? Also, is the Chinese wood stock any good? It looks very nice, but it feels a...
