    50 beowulf vs 50 bmg

    So my friend and i were talking about different calibers the other day. We got into talking about 50bmg and it huge amount of power even at long ranges; it can even stop cars and maybe even a helicopter with a well placed shot. We got into 50 beowulf and we were wondering if it holds the same...

    AR 15 vs FAL

    Re: AR 15 vs FAL thats a good point, my friend told me that too and it makes more sense as time goes on. I shot a guys AR and i really liked it except i could feel the heat and sh*t hitting me in the face from the receiver which was a real turn off for me. I like the FAL a lot because it is...

    AR 15 vs FAL

    Re: AR 15 vs FAL yea man, i love my PTR. Its pretty big and bulky but i dont mind cause it goes bang every time. That is most important to me. I have the GI edition, PTR changed the flutes so it can take any surplus ammo. It eats anything I got the port buffer to help with banging up brass...

    AR 15 vs FAL

    Re: AR 15 vs FAL Holy shit dude you got a lot of guns.. I am VERY jealous haha. I plan on getting both at some point but im just not sure which to get first. Ive heard so many good things about both that it is really hard to pick. Although i agree that they are very different rifles... i...

    AR 15 vs FAL

    Re: AR 15 vs FAL yeah, i dont think im going to spend 1400 on a a 223 FAL when i can get a 308 FAL for 1100. Thanks for the suggestions man, but if i get something in 223 its going to be an AR

    AR 15 vs FAL

    Re: AR 15 vs FAL I would do that, but im only 18 so i cant get myself any lowers. (no one in my immediate family is going to buy me one.) Id love to buy just an ar lower but unfortunately i have to buy the whole gun. I feel like it would be a lot a lot easier to find a good deal on an ar, at...

    AR 15 vs FAL

    Re: AR 15 vs FAL The FAL im looking at is made by DSA (new), im not screwing around with CAI guns.. my AK is made by them and it has some problems. I dont know what the exact model of the FAL is, but the salesman who i like to buy from recommended it over an AR 10. If i bought an AR 15 id...

    AR 15 vs FAL

    Re: AR 15 vs FAL Oh trust me, in time i will have both but for right now i think im going to have to settle with one.

    AR 15 vs FAL

    Re: AR 15 vs FAL You probably have a lot more experience than me with an AR so ill take your word for it. There's nothing really deterring me from getting one or the other... thats the problem, i want them both but can only have one. I'm probably going to go to a gun show in the next couple...

    AR 15 vs FAL

    So i have final saved up enough money to get a new gun but i torn on which one i want to get. I currently have a PTR 91 and an AK 47, but ive wanted both an ar 15 and a FAL for a while. This gun will be mostly for plinking but it may serve some other purposes like small game hunting or home...

    semi auto vs bolt action

    Re: semi auto vs bolt action That's pretty good advice, And ive needed to get myself a 22 but just haven't gotten around to it; it will be pretty nice to go shoot and not spend a fortune on ammo, although i will admit im a little reluctant to go spend money on a scope for a 22.

    semi auto vs bolt action

    Re: semi auto vs bolt action That trick helped some, i noticed i didnt move as much when i pulled the trigger so its already a little better, its just going to take more practice. I'm actually pretty excited to get into more precise shooting... i can do more than just blast away and burn...

    semi auto vs bolt action

    Re: semi auto vs bolt action I dont have a muzzle break on it.. but it does kick pretty hard. I've developed a flinch from it so i need to work on that too. I was considering a Leupold if i scoped it. the problem is that i dont have a place i can shoot regularly thats much over a 100 yards...

    semi auto vs bolt action

    Re: semi auto vs bolt action I like the PTR a lot, i tend to buy my guns to keep. It took me a while to save up for that one, so id prefer to keep it; but would it make much of a difference at 200 yards between a semi auto rifle vs a bolt action rifle?

    semi auto vs bolt action

    So ive been looking into getting a new rifle. I've got a PTr 91 GI and an AK 47 now, I've never had an optic on my guns; but i shot my teammates 30-06 yesterday that had a scope on it... it was 100 times more fun than shooting with iron sights. So i want to get a scoped rifle, and ive heard bolt...

    300 winchester rifle

    Re: 300 winchester rifle Okay, it was just a though but yea than i think im going to look for a savage 308.. keeping the caliber common to my other gun is a good thing if there's really no point in getting the 300 win

    300 winchester rifle

    Re: 300 winchester rifle From what you all say it sounds like i should go with the the 308.. although i do like the idea of being able to switch calibers pretty easily.. im pretty sure im going to go with savage for price reasons. I see they have a few rifles for around 600 dollars but i...

    300 winchester rifle

    Re: 300 winchester rifle This is not my first rifle all together, just my first bolt action. I have a PTR 91 chambered in 308 and an AK. But with the iron sights accuracy can be really hard. I like the 308 but i wanted something with a little more punch. That being said, do you guys think...

    300 winchester rifle

    So ive been debating whether to get a rifle chamber in 300 win or 338 lapua for a few months. After a lot of thought i decided to go with 300 winchester because i can ever afford 338 lapua. This will be my first bolt action rifle so i want to keep it relatively simple, but not cheap out at the...
