    Hunting & Fishing Stuck-up guide

    Re: Stuck-up guide Personally, I spent a good year, lurking and learning, before I knew enough to even ask my first question. But, to the OP, I agree, find another guide willing to take yer cash. There's an old saying, 'If you loan somebody $20, and you never see them again. . . It was...

    DPMS 300 SAUM Whats it worth?

    Re: DPMS 300 SAUM Whats it worth? You have what is called a non-fungible item. Meaning that since even Remington has abandoned the SAUM concept, the demand for the rifle isn't what it would be if it was in a more commercially acceptable chambering, such as the 260. Now, don't get me wrong...

    7mm-08 or 6.5 Creedmore

    Re: 7mm-08 or 6.5 Creedmore So, assuming I'm headed west, and I might get a shot on a bull at 300-400 yards (my maximum comfortable distance for hitting a pie plate), would I be okay using my 18" barreled upper, or do you think a longer barrel would be better? I know Lowlight likes the...

    7mm-08 or 6.5 Creedmore

    I'm looking for an upper for my DPMS that I can use against elk. Preferably something with a bit more umph than a 308. Something that shoots a bit flatter and hits a bit harder. Any suggestions?

    Troy Battle Ax Stock

    Re: Troy Battle Ax Stock I'm thinking the profile it similar to a Magpul PRS, but with the capability of collapsing it for work other than long range. For a long range only rifle, the PRS is nearly unbeatable, but for something like what I'm building, which will be used for hunting at...

    Getting restarted . . . Help!

    When I was in my twenties, I would often run a few miles to the bar, throw back a pint, have a cigarette, and run back. No problems. I'm now 37, and I'm still smoking. I've quit a few times this year, and have gone more than 50% of the year smoke free. I'll be quitting again in two weeks...

    Re: 5.56 HomeDefense Ammo Suggestions Fiocchi .223 Remington 45-Gr. Lead-Free Frangible Ammunition Anything else is a liability. Even better, get a 12 gauge pump 870, saw it off, and load it up with bird-shot. (I know that wasn't your question, but I couldn't help myself. Sorry)

    Optics on your trainers?

    Re: Optics on your trainers? Although I would love to be able to afford to put a $1000 scope on my $300 Savage MKII w/Tacticool stock, it just isn't in the cards, and even if it was, I don't think I would do it. I have a Tasco varmint scope that cost me all of $75, plus an EGW 20 MOA base...
