    Which do you 1984C owners prefer?

    The C or the CB? Is there any difference in handling and accuracy between the two?

    Stevens 325! Now I need a new front sight!

    I just bought an old Stevens in .30-30. The original front sight is too low because a receiver sight was added. According to Numrich the sight is .595" tall, with two screw holes .875" apart. MidwayUSA was not working well tonight and I can't find another front ramp with 2 screw holes at...

    Any one shot any NEW Wolf 5.56?

    I'm wondering if Wolf is working on their quality control or did I just luck into some decent ammo? Today I took my AR and my .22 to the range so I could coach somebody who is having a hard time qualifying with the M16 (the Coast Guard puts almost no effort into qualifying recruits in basic)...

    Handi Rifle fore end screw torque

    Looking through the owners manual and GBO hasn't turned up anything. Is there a specific torque for the fore end screw? Is there one that most everyone seems to agree on? Please don't suggest that I experiment to figure this out because I'm looking for a starting point.

    Limbsaver grind to fit question

    Limbsaver grind to fit pads, do you have to use the jig they mention in the instructions or is that just a way for them to make a little extra money?

    Greek .30-06, HXP 89J002-002

    Sportsmans Guide is selling this stuff at a decent price. Anyone know if it is corrosive and has anyone reloaded the brass? If the brass is shoddy I don't think I want to order any.

    Reloading 7.62 brass for a .308 question

    I'm a very cautious handloader so even though I have done some reading here and on TFL I want to ask this question. I want to reload 7.62x51 brass for a .308 Handi Rifle. Other than the primer pockets, smaller case capacity because of the thicker, heavier brass is there anything else I need...

    Advice needed for a new shotgun

    I own a Mossy 500, a Stevens 311 in 16 gauge and used to have a single shot 20. While I was in a Wal Mart with a friend I took a look at a Charles Daly youth model 20 gauge pump and it got me thinking that I need a small (youth sized) 20 in a pump action. I'd prefer to stick with something...

    Need a leather cheek pad

    I can't seem to find much in the way of lace on leather cheek pads. Cabela's has a few that have gotten very poor reviews. Springfield Armory is supposed to sell them but I can't get their web site to load. What are you guys using and where are you getting them? edit: I'm a lefty so it...

    Am I going to cruffler hell?

    At the same time I put money down on a Handi Rifle I put money on a sporterized 1903 Springfield. The nice Schnable tip stock caught my eye so I took a look. It is in pretty nice shape, one small spot of rust, the butt pad is so old it is dry rotted, and it has an old Tasco Pronghorn. The...

    H&R Survivor butt pad

    I just put some money down on a Survivor in .308. I like the way it handles, the light weight and the caliber. Does anyone make a slip on butt pad that will fit? The rifle has a hard plastic butt plate and I'm not sure how bad the recoil will be. The rifle is 6.5 pounds but it does have a...

    Caldwell rest vs. Remington Shotsaver

    I have been looking at Caldwell rests and had decided on the Rock Jr. Midway carries them for about 75$. Looking through another online store for ammo I found that they are selling the Remington Shot Saver for about $39. Has anyone used this rest? Would you say it is about as good as any of...

    Faux ACOG

    I just saw somewhere on here or TFL a post where someone had a scope that looked pretty similar to an ACOG, but wasn't. Can anyone point me back to that thread because I can't find it.

    Buying .223 online?

    Where are you guys buying online and what are you buying? I am thinking of either a 500 round case of Wolf or Brown Bear, both run about 100 bucks through J&G Sales or Sportsmans Guide.

    What stain and finish for my new stock?

    I just got a nice new walnut stock and fore end from Gunstocks Inc. Any of you have pictures of stocks you have finished? I'm thinking of some type of stain and then tung oil, or maybe just the oil itself.

    Good deals on shotgun shells at Dunhams

    I picked up 7 boxes of 16 gauge for $40 and the 12 and 20 is priced even cheaper! They even had .410 and 28 gauge for sale. It was all Remington ammo. If you live near a Dunhams you might want to check it out.

    Steel shot in a 1952 shotgun

    This gun will never see steel shot because I am using it for grouse, but what is the answer? There is a lot of conflicting info out here. Since the chokes are built in and the steel never touches the barrel shouldn't it be safe? Someone please educate me a little on this. I promise this is...

    Another Stevens 311 question

    I have no idea how this thing is choked or how old it is. No sign of a serial number anywhere. The left side is stamped with Stevens Model 311, and under that Savage Arms Corporation, Chicopee Falls Mass. The right side has a small 5100 which I think refers to the series. Under the left...

    Ordering 16 gauge shells online, who is the cheapest?

    Sportsmans Guide has some Federal 1oz loads for about 4.75 a box and Cheaper than Dirt has the same load for about 5.75. Does Cheaper than Dirt charge for shipping or is that in the cost of the ammo? I'm in Michigan so it still may be pretty cheap to buy from SG. Do you guys have any other...

    Stevens 311 with the ugliest stock I have ever seen

    Some horrible 1950s looking plastic with wood grain swirls in it. $150 and I know that Numrich carries walnut and plain hardwood stocks for it. What do you guys think? I need a gun suitable for grouse and I like 20 gauge.
