    7mm BR Ammo

    I don't know if this is the right place for this, but it's general handgun related...mods please move if there is a more appropriate location: I came across two boxes of 7mm BR that are Remington with 140gr. pointed soft points. Doing a bit of research it looks like this ammo was mainly used...

    Spring Coyote Hunting

    I have an opportunity to get a spring turkey tag for South Dakota (Gregory county) and was thinking about extending the trip and hunting for coyotes for a couple days as well. I have hunted coyotes in winter and early spring, but never this late in the spring (mid- to late April). Is there...

    In between 243 and 300 Win Mag

    I am thinking that I need another rifle in the safe and thought that something between what I have now would be a perfect fit. Looking for ideas. Currently I have a Remington 700 in 243 and a Winchester Model 70 in 300 Win Mag. I was thinking along the lines of a 270 or 7mm-08. This would...

    Hog hunt with 243

    My brother is preparing for a hog hunt and asked me a few questions. I don't have much experience hunting hogs so I thought I would ask here. He has a 243. What would be the best bullet selection for hog. I told him to probably stick to the heavier ones, 90-100 grain. Anyone got any...

    Scopes: New vs. Old Redfield

    Looking for some opinions. Currently I have an older Redfield Wideview 3-9x40 scope on my 243. This scope is probably 40 years old, and made in the USA. I have considered upgrading to a Bushnell 4200 series, or a Nikon Primos. I would probably stay with the same 3-9x40. I have heard...

    Pump a Mossberg too Fast?

    I have a Model 500 20 ga. that has perplexed me. The last few times I have shot with it I have had a failure to feed. It's like the end of the shell doesn't get lined up with the chamber and won't close the action. Usually if I pull the pump partically back, then close it will be fine, but in...

    South Dakota Whitetails

    Just got back from my yearly trip to South Dakota for deer hunting. I finally shot something that I am getting mounted. Its a decent 5x5 whitetail. This guy didn't even let me make it to my spot and walked right past me. Shot him opening morning by about 7:10. Of course I am all set up and...

    Antique Pistols

    I inherited some pistols from my dad when he passed away. I have done some research as to what they are, but thought I would post some pictures here and see if anyone could tell me some information and what they might be worth. This is my first time posting pictures so hopefully it will work...

    Which weight of bullet in 300 Win Mag?

    I am new here and had a question. I deer hunt in South Dakota where there is a mix of whitetail and mulie deer (mostly whitetail though). I typically have used a 180 gr bullet in my 300 but considered going to the 150 gr this year. Just thought I would get some input on what most people here...
