    First 1911... Talk me out of (or into) this Kimber

    Hey folks, So a few years ago I pretty much finished up my collection of guns that have a legitimate purpose (or, let's be honest... that I can come up a legitimate excuse for). I'm not shopping for my first gun purchased 100% because it will bring me happiness. So I'm looking at 1911's...

    Best sites for ammo? And best ammo?

    I have heard really good things about targetsportsusa for ammo. I don’t usually buy bulk because I have a gun shop right next to me so if I knew I was gonna shoot I’d walk to the gun store and buy rounds. I know online is cheaper but that’s also with shipping and sense I don’t buy bulk I...

    Issues with Blazer .22LR lot code C21AA05

    Just a heads up, I got 5,000 rounds of Blazer from Target Sports USA, its underpowered and wont properly cycle my semi-auto. Talked to CCI and they had me send all of it back to them for analysis. They advised that while it met specs it was causing issues with stovepiping and other issues on 4...

    Reactive Targets

    Best 22lr hollow point

    In everyone's own opinion what is your favorite 22lr hollow point in terms of actually expanding in a hunting scenario. I use mine for target, small rodent, and if nothing stronger is within reach, for coyote. (The coyote are an issue here so I don't care to use 22lr occasionally though I have...

    If you could only have one semiautomatic 22lr

    If you could only have one semi auto 22lr any brand in the world what would it be? I'm debating between a Browning buckmark rifle, the classic 10/22, and the cz 512 which shares magazines with my 455 varmint. For hunting and target.

    What is the correct amount of freebore for accuracy in a pistol barrel?

    I have a 9mm Storm Lake barrel that requires me to load JHPs very short in order to keep them off the landes when chambered. I have sent them to a gunsmith to have it throated so I can load longer cartridges. I included a dummy load so that he could cut the landes just enough to give me about...

    CVA Optima V2 Pistol for Target Shooting?

    I have been looking for a cap-lock pistol to go with my T/C Hawken cap-lock rifle to shoot at informal BP matches. After looking for some time, I'm not really impressed with what's out there for the price. The best I have seen is the Lyman Plains Pistol. Now I'm considering a CVA Optima V2...
