    Reasons for you taking bolt-action over semi-auto?

    I think of it like a revolver vs. a semi auto pistol. Do the semi auto pistols have advantages? You bet they do. That's why I own them. But the revolver has some advantages too. Revolvers always go bang, no jams, misfeeds, stove pipes, ect. Same principal with a bolt gun. They just work, its...

    UPS & missing packages, anybody having issues?

    One of my brothers and I deliver for Fed Ex, so I felt compelled to chime in. I drive a straight truck and most days its stacked to the roof by 8:00am. Like most corporations, we are pushed to the limit and when you have so many employees, you are going to have a few bad apples. One bad apple...

    Rifle Scopes Entry level long range scope recommendations

    I have looked for the same thing in a scope for months. Midwayusa has a BSA tactical scope that is only offered through Midway, also primary arms has a ffp scope around $250. I don't have experience with either. I think that's about all you will find with ffp, in that magnification and under...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns M&P pro holster option

    I use a Serpa and a Galco King Tuk. Both work very well for me. Not sure where you would find the best prices though. Both of mine were bought at a local gun store.

    Bowe Bergdahl: Deserter/Traitor or “Honor and Distinction”? Any thoughts?

    Traitor/deserter, and as usual, we are not being told the whole story.

    Is Uncle Sam buying up all the 22lr ammo??

    They failed trying to take the guns. Whats the next best thing? Taking the ammo. While it is still available, it's harder to find and the prices have gone up. So most are buying and shooting less. .22 is super cheap to produce and the manufacturers can pump them out by the billions.

    Rifle Scopes Will USO Survive???

    Are they good scopes? I am sure they are great. Can I afford them? Nope. SWFA or Vortex will get my money, and after looking at the warranties these companies offer, I'll say good bye to USO.

    For the 2nd time in 2 days "delivered" Fed Ex packages not here.

    Bummer. It does sound like the driver made a mistake. I work for Fed Ex. First off "left by garage" is not typical. If a signature is not required, we are told to ring the doorbell or knock and leave the package at the front door, unless there is request to leave it in a specific place(porch...

    I wanna start reloading. Any tips??

    I bought the Lee classic turret press kit a few months ago and Lee dies. I started slow and have only loaded 9mm with it so far. Will eventually be doing rifle too. So far its been great. Its affordable, all steel and works. Also came with Lees modern reloading book, which is pretty good. I'd...

    Benghazi Starting to Boil

    Everyone involved should be in handcuffs. After all, they have been forced to admit they knew it was coming and they were suppose to say it was a backlash in response to some anti Arab movie that no one has ever seen. Bottom line is Americans died, got no help from this administration.

    .22-250? Any one shoot it?

    Great cartridge, very accurate and shoots like a laser beam.

    Help stuck need help!!!!

    You are sure this was a friend? Right? That was my first thought, the wood dowel shouldn't damage the rifling. Been using them for years, work great. Probably wouldn't be much of an issue if it wasn't a 30 cal bore snake stuck in a 22 barrel.

    Moving from TX to CA for job - considering selling firearms due to laws there...

    What a shame. I grew up in the San Diego area. I remember going to some really cool outdoor ranges with my dad growing up. Then one day they started closing the ranges one by one. Not sure which part of Cali you are moving too, we use to go to the Anza Borrego desert and shoot too. Pretty cool...

    300 WSM or 7mm Magnum

    The old 30-06 is still one of the best hunting cartridges out there and more than capable of taking deer and elk. Out of respect for the animals we hunt, I believe it's always best to get as close as you can to your quarry and make the cleanest kill possible(this also tests your skills as a...
