    What's the ".357 Magnum" of rifle calibers?

    3/4 of the replies used hunting, get rid of those for the OP and it would be interesting. I'll vote for the carbine or rifle in 357. Worse case scenario is you fight use it and decide to sell it for what you have in it. FWIW.... Tony

    Why no affordable competitors to the Hi-Point and Kel-Tec pistol caliber carbines?

    What realistic SD scenario can't be handled by a pistol round with carbine acuracy? Even with a pathedic 8 rounds, my storm 45acp is my go SD weapon.

    Why no affordable competitors to the Hi-Point and Kel-Tec pistol caliber carbines?

    I have AR's in 55.6 and 25-45 sharps. I have a Hi-point in 45. I have a Beretta Storm in 45. I want an AR in 45 but the cost is high, even just an upper, DI is preferred. I'd like a nice lever action in 357, easy to shoot and matches my revolver. Marlin is the best IMHO but hard to find...

    Advice needed re caliber choice

    7 mag is one of the most common calibers for elk/deer at longer(ish) ranges. It's only too much if it hurts. Some say same recoil of a 30-06 with more performance. Lighter bullet that is faster. I'd go .338, preference on the 338 federal or something like it. Of course I have a 7 STW...

    Cleveland holsters

    Bobby is a nice guy, great business man. Supports the NRA and the Friends of the NRA ALL parts are made in the USA, I believe. I know he posted for thoughts on his FB page once due to price increase. Holsters are better than most, kydex goes up higher on the gun for instance. I like...

    25-06 in a K98 Mauser Action

    I have a Mauser in 25-06. It has had it's up and downs feeding. The feed ramps were modified and there is a block in the back of the action so I can put the rounds all the way to the back and life is good. Hope you get it figured out, mine is a great shooter that I took my first deer with.

    Why do people assume Congress CAN ban Arms?They can't!

    I'm sure a 200% tax on ammo would help to reduce crime. You understand that we all have to give a little more right? Only the rich have guns, the police will protect the poor, only the rich buy this stuff, they can help the rest of us. It's not for ordinary Americans...... I can hear the...

    Say I buy a 1911 with same features from Colt, Sig, Ruger, Smith.. Will I see a diff?

    You get 90% of a great 1911 (accuracy, function) by spending 40% of that on a good basic 1911. A rugger can do at least 90% of the Ed Brown at (approx) 40% the money. But that last 10% is awesome, can't put it in words! JMHO Tony

    Say I buy a 1911 with same features from Colt, Sig, Ruger, Smith.. Will I see a diff?

    Yes, you will notice differences. Not necessarily from make to make but even from model to model. I have a Sistema up through a Dan Wesson and a SA that was tweaked by a pistolsmith and some in between. The smoothness and crispness of its function is what you notice. Insert a mag and rack the...

    A rifle match for hunters with "typical" hunting equipment?

    Zak's last post on previous page was dead on. I really want to do more rifle shooting but an actual competition based on hunting would suck. I love to hunt, pride my self on patience for 1 shot, 1 kill. I'll walk a couple miles a day and shoot no more than 3 shots most seasons. I'd rather run...

    Defending against predators in the wild with a pistol.

    I'd love a 1911 in 10mm. Not that it's the best but nice to carry and shoot for the punch it delivers! Tony

    CCW policy at range

    In Wisconsin we finnaly have CCW. The new question is what to do at a range. From the ranges perspective, what makes sense for policy? We want people to practice drawing and shooting. We also want to minimize the possible oops. Shoulder holster? Ankel and cross draw? How do you want...
