    Sling swivel set for lever gun!

    I think I've done all that, DvlHownd, but only with Uncle Mike's products. But I'm confused by part of your instructions: How exactly does the sling swivel mount push the barrel apart? :confused:

    41 mag sliver tips are they worth it ?

    The OP is perhaps asking about loaded ammo? Confusing, since this is a handloading page. But regardless, the factory loaded ammo is pretty slow. Very pleasant to shoot and a good SD round, but a full-speed load would be my preference. For instance, the 175 ST does about 1250 fps from my...

    MiSsIssIpPI People?

    Welcome to Mississippi, neighbor! Yes, you can use most any kind of rifle for most any kind of hunting, except migratory birds and turkey, with some exceptions on managed lands. Yes, you can hunt deer with a .22 and squirrels with a .30-06 if you want to. Please don't go shooting .30...

    Anyone hunt with round nose 30-06?

    I used to hunt with RN 180 gr. R-P Core-Lokts, and although they were completely effective, I didn't see any terminal difference between them and several PSPs, including the 180 R-P Core-Lokt PSP.

    SemiAuto Shotgun for under 800

    Although I personally greatly prefer Inertia Recoil autoloaders for their reliability, simplicity and light weight, for shooting light loads I recommend a gas gun. I'm unaware of any new name band gas guns with an MSRP in your price range.

    Remington Model 17 20ga

    Just FYI Remington first purchased manufacturing rights to John Browning’s 1913 patent on bottom-ejecting pump shotguns, then manufactured it as the Remington Models 17 (20 ga., 1921-33) and 29 (12 ga., 1930-33). This was J.M. Browning’s last pump design. The Model 17 was available in 20 ga...

    Info needed on Sako Tikka T3 bolt guns

    I like the T3 (Lite) rifles more than any other bolt guns I have or have used in any comparable caliber. Light, slick, reasonably priced, accurate.

    Marlin 41 magnum how rare are they

    I don't think they're exactly rare, just uncommon. It seems to me that all pistol caliber Marlins are going for close to $1k or more now. But there's a .41 on Gunbroker now.
