    30-30 loads

    I'm trying to decide if I should stick with 150 grain or try 170's in my Marlin 336 in 30-30. I have read more than a few times that a lot of guys have noticed that the heavier bullets seem to shoot more accurately in their guns. So what do you like in yous?

    Will a .410 shell fit a 45-70 chamber?

    The reason I'm asking is because I was watching a show on Saturay titled "Alaska Experiment" in which 9 city dwellers were dropped in Alaska and had to navigate a series of shelters and use their coconuts to survive. During in the show they were given a Ruger chambered in .45-70, which seemed...

    Optically Centering A Scope?

    From what I seem to understand it's best if the cross hairs are "optcally centered" in a scope for best performance. The question is...if you buy a used scope that was installed on another rifle, an you know it's been adjusted, how do you get it back to optical center? Is there a correct way...

    Barrel length to determine powder choice?

    For all you rifle reloaders out there. Does your choice in which powder to use in a particular gun factor in the barrel length? I'm ploanning on reloading for 30-06 and my rifle has a 22" barrel, is there an optimum powder to use in this application? I'm thinking IMR 4895 but perhaps a slightly...

    I just picked up a like new Savage 110E

    I hope I did good after reading the forums quite a bit. I just scored a pawnshop buy on a like new condition 110E in .30-06' w/3x9x32 Western Field scope installed. I know the scope is old so it's most likely going to be relegated to rimfire use. This rifle also has a set of Williams iron sights...

    Savage models?

    Can someone explain the differences between all of the different models of Savage's rifles? I have my eye on a 11 and a 110 in a local pawn shop but I have no idea if the 11 is worth $100 more than the 110. Sure the 11 has a much nnicer stock on it but neither have the accu-trigger so they must...

    Marlin 981 trigger

    I picked up one of these a few months ago and it's nice little tube fed bolt gun but it has a pretty bad trigger pull. I've noted from a few posts in the rifle forum that these can be smoothed up a bit but no one seems to want to explain how, So..... Can anyone point me to a site that details...

    Marlin 981T .22 Trigger

    Can anyone pint me to a site that details anything that can be done with the trigger on one of these. The gun shoots great but the trigger is pretty bad. I have had it out of the stock and looked at it but I'm really not sure what can be done to smooth and lighten the pull.

    GP100 woes

    Hey guys, I have a GP100 that I picked up new about 8 months ago. I've put quite a few rounds through it, all jacketed, and it shoots 3" groups at 10 yards. I think most of that group size is me so I'm not to concerned about that. what does concern me is that, in the interest of saving cash I...

    45 ACP bore diameter

    Can someone tell me what the typical bore diameter is for guns like the 1911 or any other that shoots 45 ACP ammo? I slugged the barrel on one of my autos and noted it is dead on .450 inch. The gun shoots pretty poor groups and I'm trying to figure out what might be causing this, perhaps the...

    Tired gun?

    I recently picked up a used S&W 4506 and it doesn't group nearly as well as one I owed about 15 years ago that was the same make and model. My question is, will putting a wolf spring kit in help with the accuracy at all or is this a waste of time and I should just accept this one for what it is...
