I’ve inherited a 25/06 in need of some new optics. It currently has an old Redfield fixed 6x with the fine crosshairs. I’m looking to do an upgrade with a budget of about $600. I’m looking for input from the masses since I haven’t bought a scope in several years. Most of my rifles wear Leupolds...

I bagged a nice Rio this morning. He had a 9 in. Beard. I took him at 41 yds with a 12 ga. 2 3/4 in. #6 Hevi-Shot Duck load. I used my Blind gun, a Rem 870 with a 20 inch Poly-Choked barrel. The short barrel handles so nice in a deer blind. It also serves well as a selectable choked home defense...

The planets aligned perfectly yesterday and I was able to collect a fairly decent 8 pointer. Using my new to me Marlin 336 in .35 Rem, Hornady Leverevolution ammo, and The Buck stopped here! I'm very pleased with the Leupold FX-2.5x scope. I get a great deal of satisfaction out of using these...

I bought this rifle used last year. A Marlin 336CS in .35 Rem. It had a large cheap scope on it that was set so far forward for the ocular bell to clear the rear sights, that I don't know how the previous owner could effectively use it! I got rid of the cheap scope and mounts and let it set...

I'm retiring from my job of almost 33 years soon, and I want to commemorate the occasion with the purchase of a quality O/U. I've owned a Browning Citori before, and I know they fit me well, better than the Berettas do. I'm leaning toward a 16ga White Lightning. Does anyone know if they are...

Can a Rossi 92 be drilled and tapped for Williams peep sights. I have an older pre lawyer safety .44 Mag with conventional notch type sights. I would like to convert it to a Williams, like I have on my Model 94. Has anyone done this? If so please post a picture. I am concerned that the locking...

I have one I'm considering doing this to. I've searched the archives and found scores of marlins but virtually no 94's. Has any one done this? What mount do I need? Pictures would help. Thanks in advance....chas

I Hunted Pennsylvania with my dear friend and Brother, whom I met in the military 36 years ago. We have been in contact practically since we were discharged, but our last reunion was the better part of two decades ago. I'm sure there was some devine intervention involved. We didn't do bad...

As the title says, I'm pondering the purchase of a Remington 7600 in 30/06. I'd like to hear the pros and cons between the two configurations. I don't own an 06, or a pump rifle. It would primarily be used on Whitetail deer back east in Pa. and NC. I have used the search option enough to know...

I'm thinking of putting a Williams 5D reciever sight on my Ted williams 100 (Win.94) and getting rid of the semi-buckhorns that are on there now. Any thoughts pro or con appreciated.

Like the title says. I'm curious if anyone has done business with: Hi-Grade Shooters Supply Route 30 Box 448 Irwin, PA 15642 Or know anything about them good or bad? I'm considering making a purchase from them. Thanks in advance....chas

I stumbled upon an unusual (at least to me) 16ga. shotgun at a pawn shop. I probably paid a little too much for it. But it seems to be in really good shape for it's age. It's a Sears Ranger Model 30, 16ga, 28" barrel, full choke, with 2 3/4 in. chamber. I did a search on it and believe it to...

I'm thinking of buying my youngest daughter one of these as a Graduation present. The H&R Protector Home Defense Shotgun. She's Moving away this summer and I want to send her off with some form of protection. She has been shooting a full size Remington 870 12ga for a couple of years. I'm...

I picked it up today. I' very pleased with my blind faith purchase. It completes my "Big Three" collection of 16 ga pumps from yesteryear. The 31 is very comparable to the model 12. The Ithaca 37 is notably lighter in weight and really quick to point. They are all 28" modified chokes and scaled...

I ran across a Remington Model 31 in 16 gauge, 28 ", Mod choke, on an auction site last week. I tried my best to talk myself out of putting a bid on it but I just wouldn't listen. So now I have a model 31 on it's way to join my Winchester Model 12 & Ithaca 37 16 gauges. I hope I didn't screw up...

Sometimes it pays to be known for something. Where I work I'm known for my affinity for shotguns. So it wasn't unusual when a fellow employee from another department approached me with another shotgun question. But this time he wasn't seeking advice or opinions he was wondering if I new anyone...

Does anyone know anything about these? I'm totaly unfamiliar with this model. Are there any problems inherent to the design? Or, are they reliable? I would like to hear the pros and cons from those more knowledgeable.

Like I said, I've had the itch for a new gun. Something I've never owned before. So today a Marlin 1895 Guide Gun in 45/70 followed me home. I'd like to hear the pros and cons. I've shot the caliber before. The gun belonged to an aquaintance who was into CAS. But I've never shot hunting loads...

On which barrel of a fixed choke SxS is the looser choke usually found? I have always been under the impression the right barrel was usually the looser choke. I've only owned one fixed choke SxS, a .410, and it was full/full. I have spoken with an owner of a Stevens 311 who says the right barrel...

Aside from it being Turkish made, does anyone know of any serious faults with this gun. It appears to be put together really well for a "Third World" product. Each gun in the line is built on frames proportionate to their specific gauge.The 16 ga. CZ Bobwhite has a blue & case colored hand...
