    How Do You Decide What to Train For?

    I have read 3 pages and found some wisdom mixed with many different opinions on this subject. It's sad but true I can only hope to survive a conflict I am unable to avoid and will not have the element of surprise on my side,it only belongs to the aggressor. The reality is there is no possible...

    So many Walmart shoppers drew their CC firearms ........

    I just finished reading three pages and there is some wisdom here mixed with many contradictions. My instinct is to avoid conflict in any possible way. I'm sure those folks would have avoided the whole incident entirely if crystal balls came with the responsibility we have these days to defend...

    Carry Pain

    Physical build does play a part for sure almost as much as physical condition in comfortable carry. Comfort is so important when you carry from feet on the floor in the morning until back on the bed at night,7x365. Once you find a comfortable combination you will get in the groove so to speak...

    Need some help with my next project

    I have an old 6.5x55 Swedish Mauser with a short 3 step military barrel that was sporterized years ago. I have several rifles and it is the most accurate tool I have. If you can get close to the results from a barrel on your list I believe you will be pleased. I was surprised years ago when the...

    44mag carbine loads haywire.

    I tried a red dot on a Contender 44 magnum years ago. I can't remember what brand,after a few maybe 25 rounds its dot became loose inside bouncing around. I decided red dots and 44s couldn't work well together the recoil was too much for red dots at the time and sprung for a Nikon scope that...

    Help me pick out a pistol for the Girlfriend.

    Dr. Ninga today I hope you are busy going from shop to shop observing that lady as she handles the wares. I agree that the light recoil of the 22 pistol would be a much better platform for a beginner to learn the basics on. If she finds the joy I did as a boy, fun will turn into love as far as...

    Help me pick out a pistol for the Girlfriend.

    Well Dr. Ninja I must have been staring at the screen too long. I completely missed the link you speak of. Carry that lady from store to store to observe her intently as she handles handguns and if you find her to be excited with one or the other use your skills as a Dr. and her pulse and core...

    The revolver or Semi auto. you absolutely won't add to your collection?

    I like what Shae says about the High Point. Those same words could apply to other brands of firearms ad well. I have no reason to doubt his words, nor do I have reason or experience of dealings with Shae to believe it. Just this,what he says seems to have the ring of truth to it and plain old...

    Shooting 22 shorts out of LR cylinder

    Our local Walmart now has 22 lr . In stock but I haven't seen 22 shorts on the shelf in several years. As a young man without extra cash the shorts did as they were intended,I saved money and we still had squirrel or rabbit to eat. They do the same job at close range as the long rifle without...

    Help choosing hunting bullets for .300WM and .25-06

    Wombat, I can't recall the exact particulars on those 180 gr. Nosler Partitions. It has been well over a year since I loaded for the 300 WM. Maybe closer to 2 years. I bought those from Shooters Pro Shop on sale they were blemished and came loose in a bag. I haven't had any negative results...

    Help choosing hunting bullets for .300WM and .25-06

    I have no experience with the 25-06 but have some with the 300WM. A 180gr Nosler Partition over IMR 4350 gives good results for me. A nice large wound makes a deer lay down most times and helps as otherwise you have to look for or drag one further. I load on the light side for easy shooting. I...

    The revolver or Semi auto. you absolutely won't add to your collection?

    What could I possibly say that isn't covered here. I was surprised when I read one post that threw all Sig's out too. What a read too, OP you sure struck a nerve or two lol

    Where are reloading components available (Not a Discussion Thread)

    I have ordered once fired brass from http://www.Nereloading.com a few times. I have been pleased with the low prices,quick free shipping, and friendly service provided by them. This time I spoke with Nick personally and he gave me the code 5off to use during checkout for an order of $200.00 or...

    Hornady and Lake City

    I have some boxes of 7x57 Mauser reloads that started life as Hornady Light Magnum`s and they have Frontier on the head stamp. I never really thought anything about it. Thanks for bringing up the subject, I am open to learning more about it.
