    Nosler brass-opinions?

    I've always favored Winchester brass, but two .270's (Mossberg 4x4 & a Browning 1885) have now entered the family, and the (OH, The Horror and Drugery of it all!) task of working up pet loads for both rifles is about to begin. Since there is about one handful of .270 brass in my whole pile, I...

    Do you own any "replica" (non-firing) guns?

    A question got asked at coffee the other day by a fellow who is not anti-gun, but has no real interest in them. He said he thought it would be fun to own non-firing replicas of famous guns for display purposes. It got me thinking. The only guns I have on "display" are near worthless relics...

    Just bought a new gun safe, still new advice.

    I know most of you probably have giant gun vaults with Adamantium-armored doors and retina-scan locks. I will never have that kind of money. I have relied on other means of protecting my guns; until now. We had an incident which I don't want to bore you with the details, suffice to say a...

    Looking for a Browning BLR in .308

    I may be in the market for a Belgian-made Browning BLR in .308 I am replacing a pre-BLR-81, and I believe the 1st couple years they were European, not Japanese. Any leads on one, or what I am going to have to fork over $$$=wise? Thanks

    Friction rings on a squareback autoloader

    It's actually a Savage 745-the alloy reciever lightweight version of the 720. I am only going to be using light trap loads to a few field loads for pheasant in it. I have fired it a few times with light target loads and it has functioned flawlessly. But since it is a bit of a family heirloom...

    Tikka rifle- what scope rings?

    I buddy is buying a Tikka in .308 (T2? T3?, not sure) in stainless steel, synthetic stock. I only had about 45 seconds to handle it (really nice trigger!) but I am curious about what rings he will need. The receiver has what appears to be nice grooves atop it for scope rings, but they don't...

    Mills Fleet-Farm store welcomes CWP's

    I just stopped into Mills Fleet-Farm in West Bend, Wisconsin. Posted at the counter near the door was a sign informing me that firearms being brought in for service of such needed to be checked-in upon entry. The sign went on to emphasize that this does not apply to concealed weapons carried...

    Book: HEAD SHOT (deals with JFK thing)

    by G. Paul Chambers I was with the guy all the way through the first 8 chapters. He systematically disassembles the single bullet theory and applies physics to the movement of Jack's head. Yeah, I found niggling little things that weren't quite right about balistics and rifles, but I kept...

    Optics, distortion at the edges of the scope?

    MY friend's AR has this scope on it It's on top of the handle. I don't know what breed it is. It's got a laser built in. The thing I really dislike is that I have never seen so much "Fish-eye" lens distortion in a rifle optic. When you move your head around, not only does the reticle move...

    3rd generation guns

    A 3rd generation gun is a precious thing. A gun that your parent passed on to you from a grandparent is something money cannot buy. I wouldn't sell my grandfathers Winchester model 1912 (mfg. 1917) for $100K, and it doesn't even work. I have a Winchester Model 1907 that my father shot deer...
