I had the Skinner sight on a Henry 44 mag, I used their brass front sight. I put the peep in the middle of it’s adjustment range and filed the front sight down until it was hitting where I wanted it.

Received an email today about the new Beretta rifle, looks pretty interesting. Straight pull with supposedly easy caliber changes with a barrel and bolt head swap. https://www.beretta.com/en-us/product/brx1-black-FA0112 I’d like to see one in person, hopefully they come out with more calibers...

Looks like it officially released, received an email yesterday. It really does have me tempted, I’ve wanted one of the original versions for a while this might push me over the edge https://www.kimberamerica.com/k6xs-38-spl?_kx=h_eHuFG4A9DLVwgwMvWjpsHxS2zxOjiY-1ejgIw1uoY%3D.VwcpYE

I wonder how many Single Sixes they actually sell in a year given the price they ask for them. I’d bet they either go away or become a limited run offering. They’re a quality 22 but they can’t be selling a lot of them.

You might look into the Seecamp 380, I’ve never owned one but have heard they are about as good as it gets for a micro 380

Biggest deer I’ve ever shot was with a 357 Henry.

I fully understand a lot of practice is needed for a 500 yard shot, and hopefully a long shot is not needed. I plan on putting in a lot of practice between now and my next hunt which probably will not be for a couple of years. It sounds like my 30-06 is enough rifle. I bought it several years...

I agree that closer is better and it is hunting, not target shooting. At home I’m successful every year with whitetail with both a 44 mag Henry and a 44 mag SRH revolver with shots rarely over 100 yards. On the flip side when I travel over 10 hours and spend thousands on an elk hunt in...

I’m not looking for a magic solution, I stated I’ve found a range relatively close that will allow me to practice at 500 where I wasn’t able to before this hunt. My question is would I be better off with a rifle that will carry more energy at longer range with less drop or is the consensus the...

I went on a Colorado elk hunt last fall, saw plenty of elk but didn’t get the opportunity to bring one home. Only good shot I had was at a bull at 500 yards. I passed on it since I wasn’t comfortable shooting at that distance and there was no way to get closer. I have found a range semi local to...

I really enjoy Hornady’s podcast, they’ve been doing a deep dive into ballistics. It obviously has a slant towards their products but they definitely give a lot of general information as well.

I’ve hunted Iowa whitetail with my 44 mag SRH every year for probably 10 years, haven’t come home empty handed yet. I practice a lot and am confident to 100 yards, this year’s was taken at 120 yards. 240 gr XTP over H110 gets it done.

Received an email from Walther today, looks like they are discontinuing the P99 and are releasing a final edition. It’s one auto loader I’ve always wanted to try out but never have. Honestly I thought it was already discontinued but nice seeing they are giving it a nice send off...

According to the Guns and Ammo article I just read today the frame is made by someone else, the slide and barrel are made by Savage, a lot of the small parts are made by EGW, all assembled by Savage.

Here’s my 44 mag SRH with the Ultradot 25 in the factory Ruger rings. The Ultradot works great, I just took a doe at 120 yards with it last weekend

Iowa now allows a diameter of 35 to 500 so rounds like the 35 Whelen, 35 REM, 358 Win also are allowed even though they are bottleneck. So Iowa is no longer a straight wall state there just aren’t many bottleneck rounds that qualify that aren’t way overkill for deer.

One question I have is what pressure the 360 will run at to be able to be used in a lever rifle. I have a 350 Legend in a Savage 110 and really like it, if the 360 is going to duplicate the Legend I would think it would have to have a similar pressure. The Legend runs max about 55k psi which I...

Received an e-mail today from Savage, looks like there is a new player in the 1911 market. Looks nice, haven’t seen any info on pricing. I’m kind of surprised this is what they picked for a new product, if I had to guess I would have thought they’d have gone after the new Hi Power market but...

Check out Duluth Trading Conpany long tail t-shirts, they fit nice and are extra long. I wear them for work, they work well when your bending over and keeping you covered between your pants and your shirt, as in no plumbers crack! They also work excellent for covering your carry piece.

I’m currently running an Ultradot 25 on my 44 mag Super RedHawk I use for deer hunting and am thinking I’d like to try a scope over the course of the next year to see if I like it more than the red dot before next deer season. It appears a used Leupold M8 2x on eBay is about the same price as a...
