    What is this scope called?

    I heard about a rimfire scope that calculates your trajectory for the various rimfire calibers. Anyone know what it's called? I think it's a nikon but I'm not sure. You just click number of yards you're at and you're good to go. This scope will be going on my 10/22 for small game hunting. If...

    Shot distortion with tighter choke tubes

    Is there anyway i can tell if the buckshot is being distorted by the choke tube? The 3 I have are IC, F, and super (or maybe extra) full so it's kind of hard to tell if a modified or improved modified would do better as far as tighter patterns. I know they only cost about 14 bucks but if there's...

    Need suggestions for a rifle

    I need a bolt action (preferably bolt but I'm open to other suggestions) rifle that's capable of taking grizzly bear, but small enough not to cause too much damage to the meat of a deer. Although i usually use shotgun for deer, a rifle isn't bad if i don't want to get up close and personal...

    Federal tactical buckshot for deer

    Anyone do it yet? I'm looking at the 12ga. 2 3/4 00 load. Lee Lapin told me in a thread that it had the tightest patterns. Would this be OK for deer or is it meant strictly for 2 legged wild animals? I'd think it would be OK but i though I'd ask. BTW those of you that saw my thread where i...

    Sellier and Bellot Buckshot

    I recently patterned my shotgun with 3" Remington 00 magnum buckshot. I just realized that in cheaper than dirt there's a heck of a deal on the same load just from Sellier and Bellot. Would there really be a noticeable difference? I Wouldn't think so but if there is i need to know about it...

    Sea ticks

    I put this post in this section because i figure most people that know anything about sea ticks would be outdoorsman. As far as i know they're only in NC. Anyone ever had them before? I just got them really bad and I'm not sure what i should do. They're really itchy and i don't know how to tell...

    Buckshot for black bear...really??

    I just picked up a case of Remington magnum buckshot for deer season this year and it has chart on it with shot sizes and what game you can use them for. One was black bear. They suggested 00 or 000. I always thought slugs were the way to go with black bears. Would a 3" 00 buck shotshell really...

    A few more questions before deer season starts

    The used 870 i bought came with an extended choke tube of an unknown choke. It says REMINGTON EXT PORTED LEAD SHOT ONLY on the side of the tube. I measured the diameter and it's tighter than full choke. Pretty much all buckshot is lead right? So this choke tube is for buckshot? I plan on...

    Minors hunting in North Carolina.
