a friend just bought a BT 99 plus. Really nice gun in what I consider good condition. Has a 32" barrel with an invector choke. I gave an invector + that seems like it fit perfectly. My main question is are the + chokes ok in this gun? I take it that the + means that the choke is extended...

What's the best shotgun in your opinion? It doesn't matter how you use it or who made it. What's the best shotgun for your needs? price should not be considered. only the best of the best.... In your opinion. Also, what do you think is the one shotgun that's good enough for most anything? from...

been thinking about shooting trap all week. No matter what, I just couldn't get trap out of my mind. This time was different though. This time was going to be different. I stopped at the hardware store and picked up some spray paint. Before I started the round I patterned my gun on the pattern...

Ran across a new CX the other day in Cabelas and the price was right. I was back and forth with the clerk until he threw in a pair of Diana skeet tubes to solidify the deal. Its also referred to as the 'crossover' due to the raised rib. I like that. The gun comes up to the eye naturally for me...

I am looking into a new SA shotgun and I can't decide whether I want a 20 or 28. I shoot a lot of informal clays and SC when I can. Ultimately, I'm looking for the perfect dove gun. I prefer semi auto. ATM I'm torn between the Beretta Xplor or the Weatherby SA-08 in either gage. My heart says...

A while back I started a thread about building the perfect sporting clays gun. There were interesting responses. After a lot of reading and a lot of shooting I was no closer to the perfect gun than before I started. A true target gun was going to cost. So, I compromised. Cabelas had a sale on...

im working my way into a sporting clays gun. Looks like it's going to be an a300. After 200 rounds I knew this was the one. There are modifications I'm looking to make but the one I hadn't planned on was the bead. When I got home from the range I decided to clean it. Low and behold the front...

The smooth bore 22 thread got me thinking about a quiet 410 load. Is there a factory load that stays below 1000 fps? If not has anyone tried any subsonic hand loads. I don't recall seeing anything in the reloading manuals available but I'm sure it could be done.

This gun only has ~300 rounds through it. Usually after 70 shells or so it will start to hang up but this is beyond my experience grade. 5 shells into the 2nd box today the action froze tight. It will not budge at all and the lifter flops around. There was a round in the magazine and I had to...

Let see, probably has to be a 12 gage. Maybe needs to be on the heavy side and a repeater but nothing is off the table. Let's hear your best thoughts and experience on the perfect clays gun? Price should not be an issue but to be fair it should be considered. Heck, lets design two perfect...

What is yours? I'm really partial to a 12 gage Remington 1100 and an 20 gage Beretta 686 but when I'm honest with myself I think my favorite is shotgun is the 20 gage Remington 870 youth express. It's short, light and rough as a Cobb but it hits just as good as the Beretta. Every time I head...

Had my new 1100 sporting 410 out on the range today. What a sweet gun but I did notice that it's hitting a little left. I've never noticed other shotguns doing this so I don't think it's me. Any ideas on how to move to the POI closer to POA?

It started innocently enough. Cruzing the gun shops.... Any gun shop.... For the next cool thing. Started looking at 410s and I'm not sure why but the little oddball started to draw me in. Then I picked up a Yildiz SS A4 Elegant 28" barrel and I was hooked. Now it's had 175 rounds down range...

Had an odd phone call today. It seems that an LGS is getting out of the FFL part of their business. Well... They called me today saying that 'I checked the yes box for a being convicted of a felony on the background paperwork and would I please amend the paperwork for them.' The transaction...

And wound up with a brand spankin new Remington 870 Express youth model. Walmart took 10% from the change that left me with $170. They had a couple of 26" 20s but I wanted that handy little youth model so I cashed out my vouter and made a B line for Academy. They had it. Plus, Remington has...

Though i have plenty of magazines I only use 5 or 6 for the range. They've all done well until recently. Seems like some of the older aluminum GI mags are getting finicky during loading. The rounds don't like to seat well. Needless to say I've have feeding issues. It's easy enough and cheap...

I'm not sure because I don't speak Russian but the video is interesting. Never heard of an AK 12 but it does look like an improvement. Admittedly I thought it was a shotgun but no... Definitely an AK rifle with a better safety. Shouldn't cost much to produce and equip an army with. Looks very...

It's been touch and go between me and the RA 223 compact. Lots of wasted ammo and a couple of trips back to Ruger but it's a well mannered winner in my book. 50 rounds down range today and I couldn't be happier. No malfunctions to speak of and the action is running like silk on ball barrings...

Zastava m85 I've been fascinated with the idea of a handy light weight bolt gun chambered in 7.62x39 for quite some time. Up until recently I thought the only option was from CZ. Enter the Zastava M85 mini Mauser. While in Cabela's last weekend I spied 5 or 6 very plan looking short bolt...

Got all 3 and figure to make the most of em. My Speer manual does not list Longshot. Hodgdon's on line manual shows a Hornady XTP 158 grain bullet charged with 7.3 gr. of longshot. I, on the other hand, only have Lasercast LSWC on hand. Anyone ever try this load with LSWC? I'm looking for a...
