    .300 win. mag. vs. .300 RUM

    I've shot both. The RUM is a good deal hotter, but your taget, be it game animal or paper, won't be able to tell the difference. I got 3150 fps out of my handloads(180gr ballistic tips) in a TRG-41 with a 27" barrel(winmag). I get 3380 fps with the same projectile in a 26" sendero(RUM)...

    .223 for Deer?

    You owe it to the deer to use something more effective. .223 is marginal at best. 7.62X39 is a better choice for deer and a cheaper rifle. If you really like the AR platform, get an AR10 in .308 or .243. If you must have a 5.56 AR, get a dedicated deer rifle as well. 98G

    Newbie with questions

    If I were in your position, knowing what I know now, I'd go with an AK variant, preferably bulgarian if you can squeak out just a little more $$ ($400-$450 should get you one). Caliber would be 7.62X39. I shoot milk jugs with mine at 400 yards using cheap ammo and open sights and hit 8/10. At...

    Total newbie to rifles - cartridge question

    **4V50 Gary and ttbadboy gave answers more to what I was seeking. So I guess a better question would be: What are the top 10 calibers and their relative power rankings, common availability in the USA and cost? I'm not a naturalist or survivalist by any stretch of the imagination (I live...

    Also, let me add another thought to muddy the waters a bit further.....You can get a quality .45 caliber full automatic subgun for less than $2k. The Ingram Model 10, made by Military Armament Corp in Powder Springs Ga...commonly refered to as a "MAC 10". They are indecently fun. Concrete...

    *So I can legally own a weapon like an MP5 or an Uzi without having to get a special license, I just have to add $200 to my purchase price? What about shooting it? There's no special license for that? I thought you had to take classes and get a license to be able to own and operate a title II...

    00 Buck or Slugs?

    **Dark, in the home, unknown enemy - the very reasons you want a SCATTERgun. To then stuff it with slugs - singular projectiles - ***'s the point of that? You want a load that compromises between scatter and penetration/punch.** At inside the house ranges you don't get much spread from...

    H&k Usc

    In that case, I might offer up the SP89 as a decent choice....Not the $7k of the MP5, but pretty short and handy....and for a nominal fee and a lot of headache you can add a vertical foregrip and perhaps the PDW stock which really does add a lot to the weapon...Total cost around $3500...

    SHTF.... (not another fantasy)

    **A primary point was that if one is truly concerned about some form of serious societal decay, moving to a Good Place is but the initial effort at living through Bad Times. He suggested moving to a small town and acquiring/having some set of skills which makes you a necessary part of the...

    H&k Usc

    All of your pistol caliber carbines suffer from this malady. Subguns too, but at least OAL is mitigated for them being able to use a shorter barrel. I get the impression you may be new to the world of rifles...If so, I can make recommendations for a good first serious rifle..One with...

    The bulk and weight of a full sized rifle, the power of a 1911, and only 10 rounds capacity........ Personally, I'd prefer something with the power of a fullsized rifle, and the bulk and weight of a 1911...... Failing that(since it doesn't exist), If I'm going to carry something...
