    Rifle Scopes Most Superior One Inch Scope?

    I have always been a Leupold guy but recently ended up with a Swarovski Z5 in 3.5-18x44 on a trade and liked it so much, I had to get another one for my other hunting rifle. As I get older, I like the added power from my used to be normal 3-9 or 3.5-10x shunting scopes.

    Hunting & Fishing Caliber for elk hunt

    Smallest caliber I have taken elk with was a .30-06 with 165 grain bullets. Working on getting a 300 PRC to use some bigger bullets...just because I want to. Know lots of people who successfully hunt with everything from a 6mm and up. Be comfortable with whatever you shoot. Only way to get...

    Hunting & Fishing 2020 Hunting Thread: Post Your Kills!

    Successful Wyoming Antelope Hunt in area 27 - Thunder Basin National Grasslands. Got both of these on day two before noon! Had a great time! Eric was shooting a Bergara B-14 in 6.5 PRC and I was shooting a Kimber Mountain Ascent in 6.5 Creedmoor. Both shots were right around 240 yards.

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Trap shooters

    I shoot trap and skeet and use a Browning XT Trap and Browning XS Skeet. Wouldn't mind trying something a bit more expensive but I shoot both of these pretty well. I haven't shot Sporting Clays but am looking forward to trying this spring.

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Got bit by 1911 bug.

    Welcome to the 1911 club. You started out with some nice ones. As others have mentioned above, 1911s can be very addicting! I started out with a couple Springfield Champions back in the 80s and haven't looked back! They are fun to shoot and if you want to get some cheap pratice in, buy a .22...

    Giraud Trimmer

    Re: Giraud Trimmer Looking forward to getting one for me. I am jealous of you right now. I still have 6 more months until I come home from 2 years in Okinawa Japan and finally settle down after 20+ years in the Marines. Enjoy - I hear they are the best and make quick work of the trimming...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns What 45 to buy????

    Re: What 45 to buy???? I have owned lots of different .45s (I prefer 1911s) but if you are up in the air on what to get, see if a friend has some you can try out and if that is not possible, go to a shooting range and check a couple out and shoot them. Get what fits right, feels right and...

    rcbs customer service

    Re: rcbs customer service +1 for great customer service. I have always received excellent support even when the fault was clearly mine - I won't mention any specific stupid error I made, but suffice to say that RCBS always worked with me and always went above and beyond to keep me happy...

    Berry bullet

    Re: Berry bullet I haven't used these bullets exactly but have used various Berry's Bullets in 9mm, .40 S&W, .38 Spl, and .45ACP with excellent results. I haven't had any issue with leading but i don't push them very fast. I think you will be pleased once you get a good load for them. Good...

    Photos Alaskan Moose...

    Re: Alaskan Moose... That is an awesome moose. I got one in North Idaho last year and they just don't get that big there! I would love to go to Alaska for a hunt like that. Congratulations again.

    223 powders

    Re: 223 powders I use H335 for all my .223 needs - my prairie dog loads with 50 gr V-maxs - FMJ loads for fun! I have found H335 to meter extremely well. I used to load IMR 3031 but that didn't meter well at all so took a lot of time. It shot well, but was not worth the extra effort IMHO.
