    Sidearms & Scatterguns Used S&W 28-2

    Re: Used S&W 28-2 Bit high, but it seems that prices on N frames keep going higher and higher. I bought my first 28-2 for 450 about 5 years ago. That's considered damn good deal now.

    Hunting & Fishing Hunting with SMKs?

    I searched and didn't see much about it, but it appears there's some pretty deep-seated dispute about hunting with SMKs. Where do you fall and why?

    Hunting & Fishing 168gr SMK Muley

    Re: 168gr SMK Muley I've been giving some thought to hunting with 168 SMKs myself. Very nice.

    Ammo question: M118LR vs FGMM 175

    Re: Ammo question: M118LR vs FGMM 175 IIRC from other discussions, M118LR is not typically on par with FGMM.

    LE Rem 700 .308 LTR

    Re: LE Rem 700 .308 LTR Shot these today with FGMM 175. Left is 100 and right is 200 yards. Yes, I know about 3 shot groups, but I didn't have enough ammo to work it all the way to 300 with 5 shot groups. The 300 group was about 2.5 inches and nothing I was too proud of. I guess I kinda...

    Re: deer hunting out of a truck? Boy, I bet some of ya'll would have a fit over the guys down here running dogs AND shooting deer from a pickup truck.

    LE Rem 700 .308 LTR

    Re: LE Rem 700 .308 LTR I have this setup, purchased used from a friend of a friend. The scope is pretty nice, though I'd really prefer having turrets and mildots. Like the rest of the rifle, it's something I can use to learn with. I can easily see that once my capabilities increase, I'll...

    500 yards pictures and video

    Re: 500 yards pictures and video I am seriously impressed with the 500 yard run. I've only done 300 myself, and I had people I know calling BS on even that. There's no way they'd believe 500.

    What does it cost you to go to the range?

    Re: What does it cost you to go to the range? Bout $15 in fuel and whatever I'm shooting for the day for the hundred yard line. Double that for the longer range.

    Hunting & Fishing Video: Hunter Kills Moose - 1100 Yard Shot.

    Re: Video: Hunter Kills Moose - 1100 Yard Shot. What's the "vapor" appearance, presumably along the bullet flight path, before the bullet hits the moose, about the 50 second mark?

    Hunting & Fishing fixed 10x scope on all a round hunting rig?

    Re: fixed 10x scope on all a round hunting rig? Nah. I'm skipping the penis-measuring contest with some dude who essentially agrees with what I said, but feels the need to waggle a little bit while doing it. My kills tend to be more along the lines of rock-throwing distance, and with...

    Hunting & Fishing fixed 10x scope on all a round hunting rig?

    Re: fixed 10x scope on all a round hunting rig? IN the past, I used my 10x Bushnell on a .308 without issue. That's in the woods and swamps of S Alabama and North Florida, too. The 10x scope works for almost anything I need it for, and if they're too close, the .357 or .44 pistol can handle...

    Suppressors CCW Picture thread

    Re: CCW Picture thread I imagine you'll have to what I did: I called up the Milt Sparks people, put in an order, and waited nearly 6 friggin' months for my leather. It's horrible having to wait that long, but if you're into quality leather like I am, you gotta do it, I guess. I learned my...

    Rear support bag?

    Re: Rear support bag? I'm not all HSLD like many folks here, but an standard-issue jarhead sock full of airsoft pellets works well enough for me. Along the lines of what Sirhrmechanic said, some 550 cord under the knot and with a loop big enough to fit over one shoulder means the bag lays...

    Re: CCW Picture thread Gotten away from the railed 1911 now. This one seems to work even better for me than the 1911, and I didn't think that was possible. Pic from a "What all do you carry everyday?" thread.
