    Hunting & Fishing Newfoundland Moose Hunt

    Hunted up there several times. Both fly in and drive in. Personally, I like the drive in camps. On the fly in hunts, what you see is what you get. We'd walk 5-10 miles/day on the fly in hunts and sometimes not see a moose. On the drive in hunts, we still walked a good bit but you had the...

    Hunting & Fishing 7mm Mag for moose?

    I've killed several Moose with a Kimber Montana in 308. It's also killed Black Bears, Elk, and a pile of Whitetails. The rifle loves 165 Accubonds and they have performed flawlessly on everything I've ever shot at.

    Ruger 22/45 lite assembly problems

    Just watch the video and tilt it when he says to tilt it and insert / remove mag when he tells you too. I don't take mine apart very often but when I do, the video is pretty much the only way I am able to get it back together.

    volquartsen superlite 17hmr anyone running one.

    Not a 17 but my 22lr Superlite is probably the only rifle I own that I would never sell. VQ quality is very good. Ended up getting a VQ Scorpion as well.

    10/22 takedown suggestions/reviews?

    Neat little guns but the trigger is beyond horrible. Still a compact and reliable plinker for the price.

    Going to try a 'new ammo' sampling with 22LR - Lapua Results; Weird Conclusion on Data

    Center X works very well in my VQ Superlite. Also have had good success with Eley Club & Subsonic as well as the RWS offerings. Not real fond of the lube on the RWS but I wipe it off and they feed very well and are my most accurate load out past 100 yards. Another load that will produce crazy...

    .22LR ammunition test - Fiocchi HP sub-sonic

    Thanks for the test and cool video. Have you tried Winchester or Eley Subs? My VQ loved the old Winchester 40 gr. subs but I have not yet tried the newer 42 gr. subs. I'll have to keep an eye open for the Fiocchi 40 gr subs to give them a try. Thanks again for the test.

    speed of sound and 22lr "subsonic" ammo

    Winchester and Eley subsonic are both pretty quiet with absolutely stunning accuracy. I watched the video referenced above and it seems pretty unscientific. SS is about all I use in any or my rifles or pistols, mostly because my guns like them (accuracy wise). They cycle just fine.

    Volquartsen Custom

    This. Plus the built up parts guns are never worth as much as you have in them. I broke down and bought a VQ Superlight 22LR a couple years ago and it has exceeded my expectations in all regards. It likes pretty much everything I feed it but it is silly accurate with Winchester subsonics. I'd...

    Geissele vs. Timney triggers

    Re: Geissele vs. Timney triggers Have owned a bunch of Timney"s. Super easy installation in an AR. The trigger is crisp and reminds me of the Timney's in my bolt guns. Never had a problem with any of them. Never tried the Geissele.

    Brownell's Pmag Backorders?

    Re: Brownell's Pmag Backorders? Last week my account that had previously showed my order went blank. I called them to see what was up and the nice lady on the phone said they had a computer glitch but she could see my order and it was still in their system. I ordered 20 5.56 30 round non...

    all around hunting caliber

    Re: all around hunting caliber Been shooting a Kimber Montana in 308 for several years. It weighs 5lbs 2 oz and is all sorts of accurate. I like to hike quite a bit and this rifle is a joy to carry. I've killed Black Bears, Moose, Elk, and a plethora of pigs, deer, and gators with it. Not one...

    Hunting & Fishing Heli hog hunt anyone actually been on one?

    Re: Heli hog hunt anyone actually been on one? Have done it for Coyotes but not hogs. Used a Benelli 12ga. Got 10 in under an hour on private property that one of my friends family owns in the Texas panhandle. The copter was a Robinson R22. Cool little copter and the pilot was incredibly...
