    Looking for Recommendations

    So, I'm hoping that I'll get my stamp approved in the next month or so for my .22 can. In the meantime, I'm looking for a semi-auto .22 cal with a threaded barrel. I like 10/22s since there are a lot of aftermarket options for them, but I don't see a lot of options on the website for them that...

    Talk me out of/in to selling

    I have a Winchester 94 in 30-30 that I bought a few years ago (somewhere around 2000). I bought it to deer hunt with, but since I've acquired a few other rifles that I always pick up before the ol' 94. I've always had a hankering to get a Marlin 336 in 30-30, but never had the nerve to sell or...

    Noob Benchrest Shooting

    When I say 'break into bench shooting', I don't mean I've never shot a rifle in my life. I own several and have hunted with them for several years. I'm not a total noob when it comes to rifles. I am a total noob when it comes to hardcore benchrest shooting and the equipment that goes with it...

    Scope Base for Savage 110

    I need some recommendations for my Savage 30-06 (no accutrigger) on a scope base. I would need a one-piece as I already have a two-piece and the shaft of my new scope isn't long enough for the rings to reach each base. This will be for a project gun that has been collecting dust as one of my...

    Help me bring my safe queen back to life...

    My safe queen isn't a safe queen because it's expensive or beautiful. It's a safe queen because I just use other guns in it's place. It's a Win 94. I really like the gun and love carrying around something as light as it is, but I just haven't hunted with it in about 5 or 6 years, and I'm...

    NW Arkansas Buck

    Story goes like this... I was going to hunt a powerline on the north side of a hill that connects to our property hoping the south wind would't be bad, but I was wrong. After about 20 minutes in the stand, I decided to head back into the woods and hunt a lock-on stand about 100yds from the...

    Educate Me on Mosins

    So, I've had several suggestions, both here and another forum, to purchase a Mosin as my "Merry Christmas to Me" gift. See this: http://www.thehighroad.org/showthread.php?t=407643 I have to admit, that as long as I've owned/shot rifles, and been a member of THR, I don't have a clue about...

    Armed for Christmas for under $250?

    Ok, so I have an option to get a new rifle for Christmas. I can get a hunting related item (treestand, etc.), some other non-hunting/shooting related item or several small items. I'm not really in the market for an SKS or the like. I had a Yugo at one time, and ended up selling it. Looking more...

    Help me pick my next 22.

    Let me start by saying that I have a couple 22 LR's. I hunt with them and occasionally take them to the range, but this next one will be primarily a range gun. I'm going to put some good glass on it, maybe a bipod, etc. All of the following are priced comparably. Here are what I've...

    Which to sell?

    Ok, I have recently needed to come up with a little extra cash. After deciding that the only thing I own that's worth any amount of money, I decided to sell a couple guns. One of them is a for sure sell, as I never use it, and it could be easily replaced. Of the other choices, it's down...

    Arkansas Buck (pic)

    So, Thursday afternoon I was up at my stand. I'd been grunting all afternoon when I hear this guy coming. The leaves were real dry and there was no wind, so I could tell it was a deer coming from a long way off. He was coming from under the peak of the hollow I was hunting, so I couldn't see him...

    Marlin 7000

    I've been eyeing these for several months now, but haven't taken the plunge yet. Anyone know anything about these? Looks like Model 60 action, but not sure on that. How about aftermarket stocks... any of those for this gun? I already have a Rem. 597 that I hunt squirrel, small game, etc...

    Which is the right gun for me?

    I've recently decided to sell the only handgun I own. (S&W M28) Why you ask? It serves as a home defence weapon, but nothing more. It rests in it's spot at my home ready to defend my family, but that's all it does. I could make a lot more use of a different gun that would be taken to the...

    Heavy BBL 22

    Recently, I've been given a 100 dollar Christmas bonus from my employer. I would really like to put that toward a new 22 bolt gun. I'm looking for something in a heavy bbl. Savage makes a Mark II F that looks like what I'd be in the market for. Wallyworld has one listed for $137.00. I...

    Winchester 94

    Recently, I bought some TruGlo sights for my Winchester 94. When I went to peck the old sights out, it wouldn't come out. I didn't booger them up or anything, but they weren't moving, so I decided to quit before I did booger them up. Any special trick to getting the old sights out to replace...

    Lost My Hunting Land

    There's a place not too far from where I live that I love to hunt. A buddy's grandparents own somewhere close to 800± acres about 25 miles from my house. It's great hunting land, and so far has just been the family hunting with a few friends on the whole place and a joining piece of land of...

    Marlin MLS-50

    A guy here at work was cleaning his muzzleloader this week and upon reassembly, he broke part of his trigger housing assembly. We've looked the part up on various gun parts sites, but the part was either "out of stock" or "unavailable". Is this part warrantied? Could he call Marlin up and...

    Scope it or not?

    OK, here's the situation. I have a Winchester 94 (in 30-30) in my gun cabinet collecting dust. I love the gun, and it's a joy to carry around hunting. BUT, I haven't carried it with me hunting in several years. See several years ago, I was hunting and missed what would've been my biggest...

    I need a price check too...

    I have a Winchester Model 94 in 30-30. It's a relatively new gun. I bought it about 6 years ago NIB because K Mart had them on sale. I gave around 215-225 tax included when I bought it. It's in almost new condition except for 3 scratches on the buttstock. It has very minor blue wear on the...
