    I notice now most of us older guys (50+)

    I have autos and wheel guns. Like them all, shoot them all. Pack what you like and don't be a hater of either kind.

    Weatherby questions..

    If you like the Vanguard, check out Howa 1500 Lightening in what ever cal you want. Howa actually makes the Vanguard for Weatherby, so that's what you'll get without the heavy price tag. I bought one for our daughter in .243, and it looks like my Weatherby, go figure. Less than $500.00 scope and...

    Ted Nugent schools CNN’s Piers Morgan on gun control

    I think the lefty's would come collect our guns tomorrow if we let them. Demorats have tried for years to do this, but for those of us who say "NAY NAY", including The Nuge, we still have our shooters. I couldn't say I would like Ted as our 2nd amendment spokes-person, but I can't say not...

    More Hogs on the Farm

    I likey to shoot hogs too much. A 243 will dispatch most any hog, as will a .270 (my choice) with any load. I tell you, if I'm in my deer stand looking at a 10 pt buck, and a 100 lb. hog steps out, the hog gets it. Love to eat 'em. Whatever you shoot, it's more bullet placement than bore size.

    New Member? Introduce yourself here (just intros, questions get answered elsewhere)

    Hi. I'm a gun freak. I like guns of all kinds, period. I favor pistols mostly as I carry every day. During hunting season, I just add a rifle to the mix. I live on my own ranch, so going heeled is just a way of life in west Texas. I have gleaned some good info from this site, and hope to...

    How long does it take you to get to a loaded gun?

    2 Seconds flat. Always loaded and charged. They ain't worth spit if one ain't in the tube/cylinder.

    Thanks boys, and job well done. Likely we will never know who, how, etc. My hat is off to those of you who did this good deed, you know who you are. God bless our troops! Much obliged...

    Please Teach Me About Proper Pistol Break In

    It depends on where you live. Humidity will cause a more intensive cleaning/oiling program. You might be surprized how much neglect you can do without harm to the piece. I usually spray mine down with a quality gun oil before lengthy storage, but that's just me. My carry piece is attended to as...

    Let the ATF know how you feel!!

    Think about it....Every time the anti's get shot down on gun control, we see these little chips of banning, denying, or limiting what the lefty's think is unusual or different. Don't try and understand them. They hate all guns and want them to go away. They are not like us. They are chipping...

    Texas Parking Lot Bill Goes to Floor

    You may own the parking lot, but from the ground up, the vehicle is MY private property. I wonder, if a customer parked in your lot to make a purchase, would you run him off for having a pistol in his private vehicle...Hummmmm. I doubt it.

    Got pulled over...strange question from LEO

    In Texas, where we have the castle law, mostly the cops in my end of the state just don't ask anymore. They used to ask. In west Texas, packing is just a way of life, and I guess the LEO's just assume we all have one, or more, and we do. I have LEO's in the immediate family, and the fact is they...

    New M1A, now need optics advice

    Lots of techno talk for hunting pigs. I hunt hogs too, and best to think of low light situations. I went to a Nikon 3-9x50. Wonderful light gathering properties, and haven't had to move it in 6 yrs. Try one.

    Old S&W .32 CAL revolver value Question?

    Wikileaks shows Mexico isn't getting guns from US

    I love it. I have read thru this thread, and some tout governments as corrupt, some blame gun dealers. Some have said CNN & MSNBC will inform us ( Iwouldn't believe one word from either left wing network). But it all boils down to this. ALL governments are corrupt, and ours (US) is probably the...

    Best Rifle/Caliber for North American Hunting?

    I just don't think you can beat a .243, or a .270 for an all around shooter. My wife busts 350# mule deer with her .243, while I just lean on the .270 for 99% of my shooting needs. If elk is in your future, you may lean towards the 30-06, but a .270 is an acceptable round for elk. Anything...

    Cold bore first round fliers - any wonder cure?

    I have a .270 that when new was producing fliers. I fooled with different bullet weights till I found the magic combo. It sounds like you have a great set up rifle. I would try different bullets untill you find the one that your shooter likes. Remember, two of the same identical guns will still...

    Lever action, subsonic, hog capable. Is there a rifle that can answer the call?

    I have a Marlin 45-70 Govt. lever that I use for hogs in brushy country. Max power for hogs. Never saw a supressed lever though. You may have to go to a bolt action to do that. Sub-sonic? not likely
