    Sidearms & Scatterguns Revolver question

    Re: Revolver question stay away from the 41 mag. not that it is a bad round , its a pain to get components for. I dont think 650 is a great deal anyway. look around and you can and will find a 44 for around the same price + - . as far as the 8 shot make sure to get the steel frame if you...

    Gunsmithing how to figure twist for 223 subsonic

    how do you figure out the required twist rate to stabilize a given projectile when shooting subsonic? thinking of a fun project with 60-80 gr .224 bullets out of a hornet case or something like that like the aguilla sss 60 grain sub load but center fire and re-loadable thanks for suggestions

    Buffalo classic

    Re: Buffalo classic the sight sits right over the hammer and gives about 2" more sight radius. windage and elevation are both the same type of knob and have good solid clicks. just imagine the elevation knob turned sideways.

    Buffalo classic

    Re: Buffalo classic i have one and i put the williams foolproof 5d sight on the back with a target aperture. helped my shooting greatly, also nice to make adjustments with the target click knobs on the side. well worth the money.

    Spotting scope that won't break the bank.

    Re: Spotting scope that won't break the bank. i have a burris shorty scope. it is like 10 inches long and is very compact. i use it to spot shots and glass when shooting prairie dogs. http://www.burrisoptics.com/xts2575spot.html it really works well.

    savage or browning?

    Re: savage or browning? without a doubt go savage. i had a browning a bolt in 338 rum and it was a pain to get parts for. savage is easy to get parts , stocks , etc. browning is a really nice rifle just like it for what it is
