    higher capacity factory magazines/varmint rifles

    I know Savage Arms sells 10-round factory magazines for their Savage Predator Hunter rifles. Does any other rifle maker do the same? Cyrano

    Rifle calibers for African game

    I'm thinking about getting a new rifle for African game... for everything up to the largest game, elephant, rhino, etc. Is a .338 Win. Mag. BAR Mk. II Safari too small? Cyrano

    CZ 527 magazines

    Sorry Engineer, I meant that I just ordered an extra 5rd magazine. Someone told me 60 grain was about max, but I don't know. Beware that the rate of twist depends on the year CZ made the rifle. I have a current one that is 1 in 12. Cyrano...

    Bolt sticks

    Thank you for the suggestions Thank you for the suggestions. I tried everything but the 800 grit paper. Dropped the rifle off today at the gunsmith; he's going to take a look at it. When I dropped it off, he said he owns a CZ 527 .223 too. He "loves the gun" and talked about it at great...

    Bolt sticks

    Hi Everyone. I love my new CZ 527 in .223. I almost wet my pants when I saw how accurate it is. But the bolt is rough, and it's difficult to make a follow-up shot without the bolt sticking at least once. The guys at the range said it was one of the worst they'd seen. They told me to dump...

    CZ 527 magazines

    I have a CZ 527 American in .223 with a detachable 5-round metal magazine. Is it possible to buy a larger magazine for this rifle, perhaps a 10-round magazine? Or would something like that need to be custom made? Thanks in advance for the replies. Cyrano

    Where to buy a used rifle

    I want to buy a used rifle in .243 and save some money. I went to a 3-day gun show at our convention center, but they only had new rifles in .243 (cheapest was $420 Ruger). I looked at every table. I also looked on some of the Internet auction sites, they also seem to have mostly new rifles...

    S&W 642 Holster Question

    I have a S&W 642 hammerless revolver and am looking for a holster with a snap (not velcro). Does anyone know if one exists that can serve as 1) a pocket holster and 2) can also clip to your belt if desired? Thanks in advance for any replies. Cyrano

    CZ, Remington, Savage

    Hurray! I'm going to add to my gun rack a .243 bolt-action rifle (I need one! plus my brother-in-law is giving me a suhweeeet scope for it). I plan to buy new. I've checked out just about everything, and narrowed it down to CZ, Remington, and Savage. All three felt really great. Any...
