    Best 308 rifle for 1k +-

    Ruger Gunsite scout rifle, I say this because you take off the flash hider & put on a muzzle brake. Really tames it down. Take off the rear site & you can use the scope rings that come with it, that is if your wife doesn't like the scout setup.

    Mitchell Mauser M63 tanker in .243

    I bought a Ruger SS 18" scout rifle and love it. Took the flash hider off and put a smith enterprise muzzle brake on it, wow did that tame it. Now it's fun to shoot and hardly any recoil, plus I can run surplus 7.62 NATO in it.

    Mini-14

    I have a SS mini 14 & It has been great. I would get the SS version with the plastic traditional stock if your going to keep it in the truck. They are ultra reliable with the factory mags. Plus if you ever want to scope it they come with rings from the factory. As far as an AR 15 or AK, I...

    I wrapped my folding stock with para cord & it seemed to help with discomfort from the cheek weld.

    VZ2008 - Talk me through the hunger

    Mine is great. The furniture you can change fairly cheap & my trigger is rather nice. The only negative is the barrel isn't chrome lined other then that I don't ave any complaints. It is also feels lighter then my Arsenal SGL 21. To switch out the folding stock to a conventional stock you only...

    VZ2008- Good or not?

    My only complaint is the lack of a chrome lined barrel other then that mine has been great. I switched the beaver bark for polyomer & I'm very happy with it. I also added a small 3" section of rail & for a magpul afg. Now I'm waiting for my upper handguard rail from Bonesteel arms to attach an...

    .308, recoil and other calibers?

    I have a ruger .308 GSR ss 18" scout & I didn't like the recoil at all. With the barrel being threaded I bought a Smith Enterprise muzzle brake & now it's very pleasant to shoot. Don't know if this helps, I just thought I would pass this along.

    Vz 2008

    I put an AK 47 but pad on mine & wrapped the folding stock with para cord these 2 low cost mods seem to have made it more enjoyable & comfortable to shoot.

    Ruger GSR .223/5.56

    I agree the .308 GSR should take m14 mags. The .223/5.56 GSR should at least use mini 14 mags I hate the mags for my .308 GSR. I would have liked to have seen this rifle in 7.62x.39 with mini 30 mags. CZ should make a scout rifle that takes the 7.62x.39 in stripper clips & holds 10 rounds.

    Vz 2008

    I bought one and haven't had any problems. I changed out the beaver bark for new polymer furniture. It's a light weight nice rifle. My only issue is that it doesn't have a chrome lined barrel, but for the price it's a good deal.

    Mini-14 vs Kel-Tec SU16...

    I think the mini in ss with wood just has that clasic look & since i have the newer 580 series it shoots pretty good. If you want a folder, you can get a folding stock for it but i like the wood stocks.

    How would you handle this?

    The safty/shooting course is a great idea to start with. If he says that he is not interested then you have a number of options. You could buy him a good shooting video which would review the proper safty handling of firearms. If he still does not change his behavior, you could bring it up in...

    Tennessee tourist arrested for bringing pistol into 9/11 Memorial

    On a radio news blurb i just heard this, it said that she could get three years in jail or more, thats rediculous for a person who probably has never done anything illegal in their life. Plus the citizens of new york would have to pay $30,000 plus per year to incarcerate her, a forth year...

    Semi-Auto .308

    i would go with an m1a 18" or 16" then a saiga 308. i have a 18" mia & i bought a socom also, but if i had it to do again i would have gone with the saiga. even though i love my 18" m1a, if i wanted an additional 16" 308 it would have been a saiga 308.
