    Is there an accurate lever rifle that can shoot western 300+ yards?

    Marlin's rifles chambered for the .308 Marlin Express and .338 Marlin Express cartridges might fit the bill.

    Tikka T3 Battue

    Well, according to the Tikka website they are available in the U.S. by special order. Try contacting Beretta yourself using the info on this page: http://www.beretta.com/index.aspx?m=53&did=362 By the way, I think CZ also makes a 550 Battue that might be available somehow. Tikka also...

    Where does the Marlin XLR rank in the dumbest ideas in the history of rifledom?

    I have a shortened Marlin 336C that is quite a handy carbine -- a great general purpose gun. On the other hand, I also have a 336XLR and I think it carries and handles just fine. Plus it was deadly accurate right out of the box. The XLR in combination with LE ammo gives a good performance...

    Anyone using .30-30 Leverevolution ammo?

    I haven't hunted with them yet, but I have good accuracy with the LeverEvolution ammo in my 336XLR.

    S&W 10 Combat Revolver Project

    I think it is a worthy project, even though I like my current production Model 10 just as it is. Mine is a great shooter out of the box! I bought two Model 64s with 3" barrels that work better for me as carry guns -- I wanted the Model 10 "just because". It's a classic, and looks nice with...

    Changing Ammo

    As mentioned, it's a good idea to zero your sights/scope with the ammo you intend to use. Find a good shooting range. There are probably a few around in Northern Arizona. Or, find someone who owns land in a rural area where you have a completely safe shooting lane and place your targets. A...

    Marlin 336 vs 1894c

    It all depends on what you want to use the gun for. If you want to hunt big game, get the 336. If you want a fun carbine that shoots relatively inexpensive ammo get the 1894C. 1894C: Small game, and deer-size game within its effective range (75-100 yds IMO) Relatively cheap to shoot Good...

    CZ 6.5x55 Swede

    Contact the folks at New England Custom Gun and ask them to send you one of their ghost ring sights for the CZ550. You can install it yourself very easily. Also order a suitable front sight (NECG can help with that) and have it installed by a gunsmith. My CZ550FS is set up with the ghost...

    CZ "Single Set Trigger"?

    I have a CZ550FS and I think the single set trigger is really nice. Actually, the trigger on my rifle is smooth and has a crisp break even when in the non-set position so that's how I shoot it most often. But the set position definitely allows for greater precision. You just have to be...
