I'm a "keep it simple" kinda person. You have a the checkmarks for a good rifle stable other than a magnum. Get a 7mmRM or 300WM in the profile you want. Ammo is everywhere and brass is easy to get and a enormous selection of bullets in either. No need to overthink this one.

Got mine in .270 Win all setup and loads done. Just need a few hours of range time to see what she likes. (Wearing Leupold VX3i 4.5-14x40 CDS Windplex with side focus in low Talley 30mm rings)

Know going in you are going to drop another $120 for a trigger on the Remington out of the box. I just don't trust their trigger. Not to metion they say it's adjustable, but they aren't anymore.. yeah there is a screw, but it does nothing. Pretty much how it comes is how it stays. One of...

I've been eyeing up one of these or the AccuGuard. Would love to hear your thoughts after getting it out to the range.

I don't own one, but did research them at one point. I think Savage makes two versions.. one is the "Predator Hunter" and one is the "Predator Hunter Max1". The Max1 version has the Accustock and metal detachable magazine, where the standard does has the cheap stock and plastic mag. I'd go...

Thanks everyone.

I would skip the Benjamin and go for an RWS 34 in your flavor of choice. Much better construction (fit/finish), easily upgradeable, proven platform, excellent trigger and MUCH better resale value (if need). The 34 is an amazing value in a quality gun. I have a 34 Pro Compact and shoots...

Hi everyone, Looking for a low power optic for my Marlin 336 30/30. I've got it narrowed to the Weaver V3 1-3x, Leupold VX1 or one of the VX2 flavors in 1-4x. Price wise the Weaver is the best deal, but not sure on the optic quality and eyebox compared to the higher priced Leupolds. Not...

I'd vote 338WM and if it's to much recoil, put on a soft recoil pad and a brake.

If this is a true hunting rifle, then a box of ammo should get you sighted in and some chrono numbers for your range sheets. A few more boxes to settle in the barrel and get you familiar with the gun, then a box for a few seasons of hunting. Buy 100 rounds of whatever you plan to hunt with and...

Caliber has something to do with it, but shot placement is the most important. .243 is a great caliber and lots of fantastic modern bullets out there that will drop'um if you (or your wife) do their part and put the shot on target. I'm a big .243 fan. Nothing against the 7/08, b/c the 7mm...

I told my neighbor that. He's going to give it another go around to see how it does before sending it in to be looked over. Thanks guys!

Well I got her all fixed up. It was the weirdest thing. And I just happen to try it b/c it just looked odd and I don't own one of these. The hammer seemed to look weird, like it was in too far after falling. I took a small screwdriver and pushed the back bottom of the hammer. It had some...

Thanks guys, I'll try to get the slide off. I did the barrel on the post trick already with no luck.

Hello, My neighbor came over a bit ago and has a newish Ruger LC9. He has a spent case stuck in the chamber and we can't get the slide to come back. I tried pushing the front of the gun on some hard rubber and even tried a piece of wood dowel down the barrel into the case and tapping with a...

That is a bummer man, sorry to hear. Seems like such a simple issue to fix with the feed ramps. Put the barrel in a gauge and if anything sticks out.. it's too long. Problem is that if you do a search on any gun you will find problems. Especially the smaller ones. XDS9s - just recalled...

SWFA 3-9 would be perfect in a variable and meet all your requirements and be right at the $800 price point.. or less. In that price range you can pick one of 20 quality optics out there. Go over to Snipershide, they have a whole optics section you can ready for weeks and decide what works for...

I'm not sure of your age/size, but if you are an adult, get an adult size gun. In fact, if you are looking to improve your marksmanship, and already have a nice bolt gun, then build a .22 as close to your existing rifle as possible. It's called a trainer. You want the fit and function to be...

What is your overall purpose of this rifle first? Based on that answer you may need some things and not need others. For instance, if you are hunting, FOV is important, high magnification isn't. Now I wouldn't want to lug a AR10 around to hunt, but to each his own. If you are shooting for...

Agreed, very poor business decision. I will no longer support them.
