    Optics upgrades

    In the next month or two I'm planning on upgrading a few scopes. I carried my AR15 in 7.62x39 this year for deer season and I really liked it. Short, handy and I dont have to worry about banging it around. It currently wears a cheap tasco world class 1.5-4.5x32 that I took a chance on. It works...

    Shopping for 1st center fire handgun

    I accomplished paying off my massive student loans in a tad less than 2 years. I am rewarding myself with a new gun. I bought a browning buckmark a few years back and learned to love handgun plinking. Now I am looking for something bigger in centerfire. It will be mostly used for informal...

    Sporting Clays Personal Best

    Dad, brother and I decided to shoot sporting clays one last time before pheasant season opens next weekend. We all shoot 12 gauge 1100s and mostly hunt but shoot sporting clays 2-3 times a year and shoot informal hand thrown clays a few times a year. Far from experts but love to shoot and have...

    New Tikka Complete

    So I finally figured out the rings for my tikka, it had weaver mounts but they were drilled/tapped pretty far forward on the reciever. I couldnt get the scope back far enough to get a good scope picture. I ditched the mounts for warne tikka specific rings and the tikka dovetail mount lets me...

    Good day shooting

    Usually any day at the range is a fun day but I was on fire today. I was out plinking with some 22s. Marlin model 60 offhand at 20-25 yards and browning buckmark at 7-15 yards. No tin cans were spared... I've only been shooting pistols for a few years but I'm improving. Near the end of my...

    Cutts Compensator to remove or not?

    I have an older 12 gauge remington 1100 with a 30 inch factory mod barrel that I use for pheasent and grouse hunting along with some informal hand thrown clays and sporting clays a few times a year. It is awesome for pheasants (I rarely miss any birds) and I do well with clays too. But this year...

    3-9x40 $200 Suggestions

    I just bought a new deer (maybe elk someday) rifle. Tikka m658 in 30-06. Mostly used for deer hunting with some casual target shooting 3-6 times a year maybe 20-30 shots each outing, most likely between 100-200 yards. Most of my hunting in wisconsin is done 75-150 yards. I am shopping for a...

    New Rifle Tikka m658

    Went to a gun show today and picked up a new deer rifle. Tikka m658 in 30-06 in awesome shape. It has a really cool deer scene engraved in the stock. Action is super smooth and wood has some great figure to it. I tried some googling but came up empty on info on this rifle. Anyone tell me...

    Tasco World Class

    Picked up a Tasco World Class 1.5-4.5x32 for my first ar build. I usually don't go for el cheapo glass. I am a huge fan of Vortex products but i couldnt swing the extra cost for this range toy/cheap blaster. I am pleasantly surprised with the quality and how clear the glass is on a $42 scope! I...

Goal with this rifle is budget oriented way to have fun, I am hoping to be around $500 with optics and everything. It will mostly be used as a range blaster although I may use it for deer...

    Another Fall Come and Gone

    Had a great fall 2018, my hunting interests are mostly small game. I love hunting pheasant, grouse and squirrel. Deer camp was a bust for me this year but I never try too hard. I enjoy the snackies, drinkies and time with the boys more than getting a deer (dragging and cleaning are way too much...

    New handgun shooter and recoil?

    Hey all, I have been shooting rifles/shotguns and hunting for the better part of 20 years, but in the past year or two have started shooting handguns. I bought a browning buckmark and have been shooting it every chance I can get. Plinking has become a whole new challenge with a handgun and I am...

    CZ Sharptail Opinions?

    Hey all, Any opinions on the CZ Sharptail? Or CZ shotguns in general? I am considering the 12 gauge model as my next purchase. It will be used mostly for upland hunting and some informal yard clay shooting. I also shoot two or three rounds of sporting clays a year. It looks pretty with the...

    Non-rifled Gauge Adapter?

    Hey all, I have a short range I can shoot at, it's about 35 yards max. I love plinking with my 22lr/.410. I love shooting shotgun slugs in general and the .410 is super fun. The .410 slugs aren't common and kinda pricey, the best deal I have found is 25/$10 and then I have to pay shipping. Has...

    Slugs In Non-Rifled Barrel

    Did some shooting today with my 12 gauge 870 Wingmaster using cheap rifled slugs. I've never shot slugs at targets before and I was amazed at the accuracy even with just a front bead. I will be using this deer hunting next week as the piece of land I am hunting is kinda brushy and my farthest...

    Loss of hunting dog

    On Monday night I lost the best hunting dog, companion and best friend anyone could ever ask for. Maggie was 14 and a half, her old tired lungs just gave out. She died at home in her favorite spot in the yard surrounded by her family. I couldn't tell you how many pheasants she found for us over...

    I am still unsure where to post this, but half the gun is a rifle so here goes... I bought a chiappa double badger on a whim as a completing my first year of pharmacy school present to myself. Its a 22lr/.410 over/under. Once I got it sighted in it shoots great, I am probably the limiting...

    New Rifle!

    Hey all, I just finished up my first year of pharmacy school and bought myself a present for the hard work/suffering over the year as a reward. It's a Chiappa Double Badger 22lr/.410 over/under. I shopped around for a Savage 24 and decided even used they were out of my price range. I was...

    22 WMR/.410 Purchase

    Hey all, I lurk here way more than I post but I do have a few questions. I am looking to buy a 22/.410 over under because squirrel/bunny hunting is probably my favorite outdoor activity in the fall and I think that combination is cool/versatile. This would be a reward to myself for getting...
