    Still having problems with stevens 200

    Re: Still having problems with stevens 200 Where do you live, perhaps you are close enough to another member to get hands and eyes on help? Alternately there must be a competent gunsmith within driving distance who could go over the rifle and find its problems?

    IMR 8208 XBR

    Re: IMR 8208 XBR Thanks for the tip, I just started to check out the OCW web site and it appears very interesting. I am not surprised that there is more potential in the 8208, as mentioned thee were no signs of even normal near max pressure. Will have to try a bit more, but I hate to exceed...

    IMR 8208 XBR

    When I got home from the week-end my new Handloader was here. Inside was a brief review in Propellant Profiles of the new IMR 8208 XBR. On the way home from trying some new loads I stopped at my local dealer and low and behold 8208 in the flesh (well a plastic bottle in fact). I bought some...

    Girlfriend Advice

    Re: Girlfriend Advice As many are saying above, the problem of a powerful round for hunting out to 500 yds and a home defense round, are incomparable. She needs two rifles, eventually, but she needs to learn to shoot first. you might consider a .22 to learn rifle shills and then a compact...

    Suppressors Looking to buy a sidearm

    Re: Looking to buy a sidearm Spectrepiolet and Cartman have a very good point. I have 4 1911's all.45s love the guns love the cartridge, etc etc. However, when I wanted to get my son and son-in-law handguns, so we could shoot when they came to visit, I got them each a police trade in Glock...

    Appleseed Project - Liberty Training Rifle

    Re: Appleseed Project - Liberty Training Rifle "I suspect one of these days one participant will bring Grand Dad's rolling block .22 rifle to shoot at Appleseed and the AS information suggests that is OK. That shooter is DOOMED to failure." Perhaps you are confusing the purpose of training...

    Appleseed Project - Liberty Training Rifle

    Re: Appleseed Project - Liberty Training Rifle Below is a short article I wrote on my "Liberty Rife", a Marlin 795. As a side note my son and I attended our first Appleseed together in the fall. I qualified Rifleman first with a Marlin 2000, a Biathlon rifle. That was very difficult...

    Suppressors M1 CARBINE, FULL AUTO

    Re: M1 CARBINE, FULL AUTO king it up to sell parts to "legal" M2 owners has to be a big risk. The old guy only wants $500, he could probably get that from a M2 owner, but he would need to be very careful as the risk is way to great for the $$$. He should probably put it into a airtight tube...

    Rookie needs some gear

    Re: Rookie needs some gear Youngsmith; Koganinja seems willing to take you to the range to use his equipment. I suspect you will learn more in an afternoon behind a scope than a year asking questions of a group of forum snipers. Best wishes in your attempts to serve your country as a scout...

    Suppressors "Charter Arms" ...for a carry gun..??

    Re: "Charter Arms" ...for a carry gun..?? Last summer I shot a .44 Bulldog and was rather impressed, not too heavy and a .44 spec. is a serious round. However, they are not Smith and Wessons. You can probably buy a new 638 for $450 or most used J frame for a bit less. I carry a 638 in a...

    Rifle Scopes Scope use off hand.

    Last week I was shooting indoors and a guy was there with a 10/22 set up for silhouette. He was sighting it in for a "grocery Shoot" a local event that entails shooting a .22 at 50 ft offhand and winning food. He had a 24x scope on it and was shooting off hand and doing very well (let me...

    High Powered Biathlon

    Re: High Powered Biathlon I used to do summer biathlons, unfortunately my running days are gone. The idea of a winter biathlon with high power rifles sounds great, but not likely to catch on. From a logistical and personnel point of view the task is huge. Summer would at least be more...
