    Thinking of learning F-Class

    My club started F-class this year and it sounds pretty cool to me, I love the idea and am thinking of getting (building up) a learner rifle. Now I'm talking budget stuff here so I know right of the bat I'll get smoked in competition which is fine, I'm just looking to get in at the bottom and...

    My New 1911, Finally!

    I have finally picked up a 1911! I have wanted one for a long time but am on a strict budget so it took quite a bit of saving and decided effort to not spend that money on other guns that tickled my fancy. I picked up a used Remington R1 at Cabelas the other day and its beautiful if I do say so...

    My turn for Appleseed!

    I have been wanting to attend an appleseed shoot since I first read about one a few years ago and finally am going in August. I bought a new Marlin 795(because why not get a new gun:D ) and have all the pieces coming to make it into a LTR. Going to pick up some elbow pads and a heavy duty...

    Finished my AR build

    Finally finished my AR build after a year of saving and buying it one piece at a time. I am sure some of you may not agree with some of the pieces I chose but I am happy with what I have. I also understand what I need to upgrade in the future if I choose to do so. Having never done this kind...

    A sad day at the range Tuesday

    In light of low ammo I went out to shoot my ASM colt copy. I bought it used online and have loved shooting. The arbor was a tiny bit loose when I first took it out a year ago but when together the lockup was tight and it shot very straight. Come to last Tues I thoroughly enjoyed my time...

    About to inherit an old Dillon Square Deal

    My Dad has an only (25+yrs) Dillon square deal press that he used to reload 44mag on several years ago and I'm about to revive it from his storage. My question is I want to reload 45acp only (for now...) can I just get the die set from Dillon and be good to go or do I need to buy some type of...

    Loose arbor

    Went out to shoot the ASM 1860 army today and wow it shot great, better than I expected even. When I go home I had some trouble getting the barrel off and then noticed that the arbor has a wiggle too it. Now, I did read another thread on the forum on how to fix it and I am going to try to get...

    Saving for a revolver

    So I went to a local pawn shop to look at revolvers, thinking I could find a deal. Wow was I wrong:banghead: It was like a gun show, the cheap ones were just that, cheap junk. The not so cheap were new prices for rusty very used items:cuss: I looked for literally 10 mins before I walked out. I...

    First time shooting trap

    So I finally got some time to go out and shoot trap for the first time (11/25 and 10/25) and I had a ton of fun. My only problem is that my gun beat me up and bruised my shoulder pretty good. I now can see why proper gun fit is key! I have an old stevens 60 pump 12ga, it is all I can afford...

    Stuck ball!

    Help! So I was at the range planning on sighting in my Muzzleloader (CVA Deerslayer .50) but I loaded it with a patch that was too dry. So well it got stuck about 6in down. Of course I didn't have my ball puller at the time so after I got my puller i couldn't quit get it. So a friend said to...

    I'm infatuated with High Power

    I'm really just starting out as a shooter, and mainly have only hunted this past year (which I loved). I have read several "what do I need" and "how do I get started" threads so this isn't one of those. It seems that the more I read and see the more the fun High power shooting looks to me. Now...

    I want a sling, so I have a question.

    I have a Savage 64 that hunt squirrel with, it has the black plastic stock but no mounting pins for a sling. I have been looking at some slip on slings because I don't know about how or if is should try to drill and install my own pins or just get the slip on. I bought the gun from a pawn...

    My first hunting season

    Here we are with deer season behind us just a tail of squirrel season left and just over a month of rabbit left. I just picked up a Stevens model 67 12ga for rabbit hunting (and trap later but that's a different thread). Even though I haven't had any luck so far, due mainly to poor hunting...

    How do you clean your BP rifle?

    Hey just picked up my CVA .50 side lock rifle, used so its a little dirty. Now I have read several blogs and watch videos so I have a pretty good idea on what and how. I was just wanted to pick your heads about how you do it and more importantly what you use. I would kind of like to stay away...

    New hunter in Ohio

    Like the title said I'm getting into hunting this year with a friend, starting small at first with squirrel and rabbit. With the economy and such I'm still saving up for my own gun and borrowing currently. I love the idea of a .22 ( I prefer bolt action) to take out some tree rats, but have...
