Dream gun, $1,000 or under. What would you choose for duck hunting? Benelli? Beretta? Browning? Other? Semi? O/U?

You might want to Google Tim Farmer, host of the television show Kentucky Afield. He is an avid sportsman who has the use of just one arm. He shoots a bow with his teeth, fishes with one hand, and uses a shotgun and rifle as well as most two-armed men. He has little tricks, such as a fishing...

Will the iron and wet towel trick to lift a dent damage an oil-rubbed finish?

What about the barnes triple shock? I realize it is primarily a hunting round, but I wondered if anyone was having success with it.

I'm not a reloader, but am hoping to get a head start on choices of loads for bench rest out to 300 yds and whitetail hunting. Ideally i'm looking for one load that will do both well enough. Thanks.

Looking for youth rifles for my 8 & 9 year-olds to deer hunt with. They've been shooting .22 for a couple of years now and my older one is ready to go along with me on next year's youth hunt. Looking for .243 or something not much bigger. I have seen the Remington 700 ADL Youth...

Why not just get the 700 from 2009? It is "factory" and in the time-tested 700 line. I'll bet you can find one NIB either on gunbroker, or maybe ask a LGS to call around for you. I have one that I wouldn't part with. :D I think it would fit all of your listed needs. You are right that...

Local gun store says Guerini will actually e-mail you photos of the model you want to buy as they come out of production. Evidently you can pick through the photos until you find the model you want with a wood grain that suits you. That sure sounds like service!

Besides mid-grade Brownings and Berettas, is there any other manufacturer that compares to Guerini around this 3000 to 3750 price point? Any others I ought to be trying to check out?

Anyone familiar with Caesar Guerini shotguns? How do they compare to Beretta or Browning O/U's? They seem to run a bit more, price-wise, and I'm sort of wondering if the additional cost is justified by quality, reliability, etc. Thanks in advance.

Can you please tell me what makes you guys like the Featherweight so much? I've never fired one. Fit and finish? Just "feels right?" Other?

I've read several folks observing that the Model 70's rebirth under Browning's manufacturing has set a new standard for over-the-counter turnbolts. True? Not True? Thoughts? I've generally been a 700 guy, but am thinking about a shift.

I've watched a bullet comparison promo video on Federal's web site and was super impressed with the Barnes performance. I just hear everyone rave about the Hornady Custom rounds and was hoping for the best of both.

Does Hornady sell a Custom round with a bullet similar to the Barnes Triple Shock X Bullet? I've been on the Hornady web site and had trouble finding something similar. What does Hornady offer that is similar? Or do I need to just shoot Federal if the Barnes bullet is that important to me?

I could be wrong, but I don't think that holds have anything to do with the gun type. There may be someone out there with a very similar name or personal identifiers with a problem in his past. Either that or something pops up on your check that needs to be eliminated as an issue from time to...

Sounds like Hornady is the consensus. No one shooting any of the Federal Premiums? Of course at this point, it looks like it might be another year before anything is available locally. I may have to bite the bullet and pay for shipping. :D

I just got a 700 SPS Tactical. I intend to use it as a jack-of-all trades rifle. I intend to do some range shooting (I have access to a 300 yard range) and deer hunting with it as well. I'm looking for a good all-around round that will be solid for bench accuracy, but also an effective...

One issue I have had with mine: When you remove the two screws that hold the trigger guard in place, the front screw is screwed into a threaded collar/nut. When the front screw is completely taken out, if you tilt the rifle the wrong way, the collar (small and round) will fall into the...
