As a teen, I bought a Savage 110 in 30-06 and got handloading equipment. A sales guy at the local sporting goods store taught me how to handload and helped me buy the necessary equipment. I only had one centerfire rifle and that was a Savage mod. 110 in 30-06. My shooting buddy and his...
My old Winchester 69A, bought (used) at a Lewiston Maine gun show many years ago. It's really nice and the stock may have been refinished, but not so I can tell. It's disposed of more than a few critters, out back. It's also fun to shoot at inanimate targets!
I don't know why I keep calling her "SHE", because it feels quite manly and shoots strongly!!! In the several years I've owned it, it has performed better than any hunting rifle I've ever had...and I've had some very well-prepared ones. When it comes to hunting deer in Maine, Stainless rifles...
The light from the window didn't get the forend very well, but it has about the same appearance as the buttstock. She shoots exceptionally well too, but I don't load it for accuracy as much as for deer hunting, etc. It shot a sighting-in target at 100 yards with hunting ammo in the 1/2 minute...
A CZ457 Varmint in .22LR isn't what I consider a varmint rifle. It's sort of a "plinker", in my book and probably not as versatile as a souped-up 10-22, but that's just my opinion, after having both.
The ammo may have become stuck in the cases, causing variation in pressure. Whenever I want to shoot older reloads, I run them through the seating die, just cracking any seal that may have formed. The accuracy returns!!! Good luck!
That jumped-out upon seeing the photo. How could anyone who knows anything about rifles/scopes do that? It looks like the person just put the scope on the rifle to provide safe storage for it in a gun cabinet. Only a nincompoop would install a scope like that and think it would work.
I agree! It looks like the scope mount was set for a different rifle. Make sure it's VERY firmly connected, because it looks like it's just not right!!!
It's probably a weird angle of the photo, but my eyes see this scope mounted somewhat crooked on the rifle. The forend narrowing probably contributes to the feeling, but the scope tube appears to be pointing somewhat right of center. Sorry...it's probably not a great angle of the photo to...
I don't know what Remingtons' accuracy is "out of the box" in the past several years because before I've fired any Remington, I've stripped them down, pillar-bedded the action and a couple of inches ahead of the receiver, floated the barrel beyond that...and adjusted the trigger...all before...
My Rem 700 BDL Stainless, .270 Win Laminated after-market stock, now sporting a Leupold
3-9X scope with Duplex crosshair. The third photo is in my tent blind over permanent blind, looking down a 500 yard abandoned town road in Vassalboro, ME. I've shot several deer off this site, over the...
We've never encountered or heard about two-legged predators in our area of the Maine woods. When I go for walks down back, outside of deer season, I often carry my .223 Bolt-action Remington 700ADL that was on-sale at Home Depot a couple of years ago. There area others I could choose, but this...
When I had a rifle with a receiver sight, it could print under 1" at 50 yards. Later, a bolt-action rifle with 2.5X scope could print 1/2" or better at 100 yards. It took several deer and other game/varmints for several years. Finally, I managed to get a 2.5-8X scope and though I could see...
I'm very happy with my epoxy-bedded, .17 HMR fluted, bull-barreled CZ 455 American. It's extremely accurate and quite deadly on small game, including woodchucks in the extended back yard. It's not too bad to look at and handle, either. The trigger is nicely-tuned.
