    Hunting moose with a shotgun?

    Hello all, I just got picked for a moose permit and am going through my firearms that would be appropriate for hunting moose. The shots will be within 100yrds. Basically it was my M1 Garand (legal where I will be hunting) and my shotgun. I have found no information on hunting...

    New PM9 Break-In & Range Report (Pics)

    Nice little gun. Nice shooting too. I love the small size. A lot of guys use Winchester 127 +P+ or Gold Dot 124 +P. I have Federal 124+P EFMJ in mine right now.

    3.5" .357 barrell

    I recently fired a Cor-bon 200gr. hard cast bullet through my 3" .357 S&W J- frame revolver. The round had no ill effect on the pistol. I fired the round into a wild cherry trunk (very hard wood) and it penetrated just over three inches right in its center. In comparison, a 158gr. lead round...

    "Stacking" Ammunition

    Tropical Buzz. Thanks for the informative and well thought out post. You hit the nail on the head when you stated that you practice triple shots. Other posts indicated that if you stack there is a 50% chance that the "wrong" bullet will be in the chamber. Well if you triple tap, problem...

    Review of Mossberg 500 slug barrel and scope combo

    I recently bought a Mossberg 500 fully rifled slug barrel and scope combo. These came bore sighted directly from the factory. I do not have a lot of experience with scopes, but enjoyed the 3x-9x bushnell scope that was supplied. After firing 22 hunting sabots, it remained completely...

    "Stacking" Ammunition

    Stack away my friend. I have tried this in several of my handguns with no ill affects. I personally only stack in my .380 and in my larger pistols when I am backpacking.

    Federal does seem to load their +P/+P+ rounds light. They are good rounds though. Just don't expect super hign octane when you see +P+.

    Any Advice on Buying a Kahr???

    I want to so badly love my Kahr, but... The only problem that I have with my PM9 is that if carried 6+1 it will jam. If I carry it 5+1, it has never failed. The company knows about it and is redesigning the magazine. It is a fair amount of money but very few other guns fall into the nitch...

    Question about self-defense while hunting/hiking

    Going back to the orginal statement that you were most likely to stay with your Ruger P90 (great gun by the way), here is my advise for what it is worth. I carry a .45 Glock when hiking. Feel free to alternate the rounds from FMJ to JHP. This will allow for defense against several types of...

    What to do with some wild game?

    Remove any fat. Marinate the shoulder for 24 hours in a marinade of your choice that has some kind of acid in it (vinager). Roast it at 325 degress until the internal temp is 135 (please not more!) Let it rest and slice it into 1/4 inch slices. Serve with roasted vegtables. Make the...

    Why not a 20gauge for Home Defense?

    I used my 20ga. bird gun for years as my beside the bed HD gun. My wife had no problem holding it or shooting it either from the shoulder or the hip. I felt very comfortable with it at my side. I had it loaded with #1 buck shot. I would have liked to find a larger pellet shot (00 buck for...

    Has anyone used the mossberg 500 slug barrel/scope combo produced by the company and sold at Walmart? Have you had good results with it? Should I stick to open sights? Thanks
