Lately when I use my Remington 40X Bore Cleaner it starts to come out yellow like it should (i think.) but then a brown gunk that seems to be mixed with the yellow liquid comes out. I have never used the solvent before so I don't know if maybe this is part of the concoction and I should just...

I think I'm damn near convinced to go for the 10FCM. I'll probably just get a savage factory wood stock from Numrich.

Thanks for the reply

I am considering buying a used Savage 10FCM, the scout rifle model. It's an old model without the accutrigger or the accustock. Only problem is I really don't like plastic stocks. anyone know if there are any aftermarket wood stocks that would fit this rifle? It has a detachable magazine, I...

I'm with you. If people stop being shooters, we will lose our rights in the long run regardless of how many court battles we may win. and beyond that, shooting generally will die out. i recently got one of my friends into it and am working on more, it really isn't hard.

link? explain that a little more? I think it sounded interesting..

Thanks a lot spoonbender, thats just what I was looking for.

Well I'm thinking for a SHTF situation where you might only have one gun and (fill in crazy scenario) need to get food with it for an indefinite period of time.. lets say 50 years. With a centerfire rifle you can cast bullets, reuse cases for a long time when its with such a light load, and...

I would be manually cycling a semi-auto rifle, presumably. since the intended use is just hunting one animal at a time, I see no disadvantage to having a single-shot rifle. You bring up a good point, rcmodel. I think using lead bullets would be fine, but wouldn't a lead bullet at those...

I've been thinking about the idea of a .223 rifle as a survival weapon/tool. for the round to be useful in that purpose it would have to be able to take down small game like squirrels/small birds/rabbits without destroying the meat. With that in mind, does anyone have any data on loading the...

I think you did alright, but personally I wouldnt even bring up anecdotal evidence or "i heard this" just move straight to the facts if you want to seriously convince someone. point out that there are only about 600 accidental gun deaths a year, and that this is dramatically less then plenty of...

My choice would be the standard model Ka-Bar: tough, not too expensive, light, versatile, and it has a lot of style.

I've been in the market for a target/deer hunting rifle, and yesterday I went around all the local gun shops to see what was being offered. The main gun that caught my eye was the Ruger M77 Hawkeye in .308 with a walnut stock. it comes with integral scope rings and the guy said he would mount...

If you want a really great knife, get one from Lone Wolf. The site I use is newgraham.com.

I havent had experience with the other two, so I wont vote. But let me say the the Remington failed to ignite often and was very innacurate to boot. definitely do NOT buy the Remington.
