    Tab Gear Sling for Hunting

    So I took my newly finished .308 on a pretty good boar hunt this weekend. The last thing I did to this rifle was to take my TAB Gear Sling off my other rifle and throw it on here, since I love shooting with it. Problem is, those slings are made from such slippery webbing that the thing...

    Best Entry Rifle Is...

    ....Savage 10 in 308 with fluted, threaded bull barrell. I had an older but nice Leopold hunting scope on Weavers that I added until I get a nicer optic. I guess I'm no longer really a beginner but not an expert by any stretch. All I know is this rifle allows me to really put all the...

    Weird grouping...

    So a few days ago I shot very tight 100 yards groups in the bullseye with Remington a frame swift 200g. Today I went out with Herters 185 and shot beauty groups again.. Probably 1/3 inch. But... The groups were about 2 inches high and an inch right. Can changing ammo move placement but still...

    Maggie’s You Sick F&*ks!

    I was looking at the most searched terms on the Hide and "Girlfriend" was one of the highest. Just when I was going to post a picture of my nekkid girlfriend riding our llama singing Danny Boy as she shotguns Budweisers one after another.

    'Cuz I Know You Guys Love Noob Humor

    In my effort to continue total and complete domination of the rookie population of the Hide, I give you this: So here I am, all proud of myself for creating a DIY comb on my stock using pipe insulation and camo duct tape. And I'll be damned if it didn't fit me like a glove--instant fit, full...

    God I Suck.

    *Preface: I came out of lurking recently because I'm a relatively new, totally self-taught rifle shooter. I've killed elk and deer with a 30-06 I bought out of the newspaper and never really caught the bug until lately. Now I'm devoted. So I've been reading about proper technique. A lot...

    Maggie’s A Random Question for Military History Buffs

    So I was watching a movie last night, The Kingdom, and there's a scene in it as follows: Attorney General Gideon Young: I'm gonna bury you. FBI Director James Grace: You know, Westmoreland made all of us officers write our own obituaries during Tet, when we thought The Cong were gonna end...

    Best Means to Acheive Cheek Position

    As mentioned in another thread, I have a new Savage 111 Long Range Hunter in .300 WM with a Vortex Viper scope. The rifle, as some of you might know, comes equipped with an adjustable comb on the stock but it appears hokey to me: Plastic with coarse threaded thumb screws, just begging to get...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Anyone Else had Kahr Magazine Problems?

    So I have a Kahr .40 that I carry while archery hunting and occasionally for a CCW. I bought it because it's very lightweight, compact, relatively affordable and mostly because it was built in the USA, which is very important to me, working for an American manufacturer myself. After about...

    Hunting & Fishing Any Other Beak Busters Here?

    Per my "newbie intro post," I'm somewhat new to rifle hunting but a longtime bird hunter. Any others here? Personally spend a lot of time scouring Idaho for pheasant, quail, chukar, grouse, huns and I do a lot of waterfowling, too. Just curious if there are other bird hunters around.

    Greetings from Idaho

    Howdy All, New guy here. I've been lurking for a while but just registered. Background: Lifetime bird hunter--roughly 50 - 60 days a year chasing beaks, both upland and waterfowl. When it comes to scatter guns, I'm about as confident as it gets and I feel like my Binelli SBE 1 is an...
