Schleprok62, I appreciate the post on the Remington. Ironically, I rarely see any youth single shots for sale anywhere. Anyone have luck finding the Remington or Savage Cub?

Agree with Marvin. I've wasted my time with wildcat cartridges, but after 100 rounds of shooting at a 50% premium, have turned them in. .38 +P is ubiquitous and cheaper. Get the SP-101 in .357.

.300 Winchester Magnum or a the short-action variant .300 WSM. Flatter shooting, more energy. Regardless, get a great piece of glass and learn how to use it.

I was surprised. No trigger job on the SP101 besides a bit of sanding?

CZ all the way.

My Mini consumes both just fine. Accuracy deltas with different weight of bullets for sure, but they all go downrange.

All good choices (.22, .357, .38, AK), except the High Point Carbine. Waste of cash. Get the Beretta CX4 Storm instead. Go for quality and good value whenever possible. One point I will say. In your marriage manage your money to get the best value. Saving for a couple extra months or...

Nope. She loves me and we keep it above board. It's a bit Quid Pro Quo. I get a gun, she gets some jewelry. I treat her right.

I have a single shot, matched pair Youth Rossi 20 gauge shotgun/.22 lr Model: S201220BS. http://www.rossiusa.com/products/product-details.cfm?model=S201220BS&category= Does anyone know if you can get a .223 barrel for these? If so, where? I know there is a version that comes in .243

The GSG-5 looks like a lot of fun, but it's over-priced to the tune of $250 or so if they want it to be a hit.

Looks like I have Savage Mark II or Marlin 925 in my future. Thanks for the tips guys.

Stubicatt, with a population of 1,700 Elk around Estes Park, the herd will get thin quick. A hungry population will resort to what's available. Hey, in South New Jersey, the eat Muskrats. I kid you not. A .308 auto-loader and a .22 pistol on the hip is ideal for this blessed state.

Anything in .308 is ideal. Springfield M-1A, FAL, etc. is the ticket. The distances are very long here in our state. Much of the game (Elk, etc.) are larger animals. .308 is an excellent compromise round because of it's stopping power, general availability and decent trajectory. Of...

Yes, Mp7, diesen PPS-50 gewher is sehr schoen. It had everything going for it. Looks, a military je ne sais quoi, accuracy, craftmanship. Sadly, they fetch up to $800 US and have become true collector's items when the intent was to create a line of nicely made "fun guns". The original...

Well, Click Click Boom, when you statistically factor what's best, you put a weighting on several factors. With guns these factors include: Accuracy, performance, quality, availability of weapon, availability of parts, cost basis for ammunition and yes price to come up with the determining...
