Quick and easy one here... I'm considering buying either a Remington 700 BDL or a CDL in 30-06. I like the BDL because I like the Monte Carlo stock. I seem to be able to bring the rifle scope up to my eye more easily without dropping my head as far down or pull my elbow as high up as the...

Well, it happened again... I went to FedEx the other day to ship a pistol I had sold and, as required by the ATF, I told the FedEx lady that I had an unloaded firearm to ship to a licensed dealer and requested a larger box to put my box in. I had it inside the manufacturer's locked container...

I go to the forum address and the browser goes blank. Did they take the site down or are they having problems with their server? g_gunter

Man...I'm mad as **** because I've just wasted 23 rounds of premium handloads (cast perf bullets and stuff) for my .45 Colt because my Lee Factory Crimp Die is seating the bullets an additional .020 of an inch deeper when I use a heavy crimp (one full turn of adjustment knob). It'll seat the...

I found a Ruger Bisley in .44 mag for $269.00 in 99% condition and couldn't pass it up. I've been trying to find a bisely for a conversion project and now I have no excuse. The problem is that now I don't have $1200 - $2000 to do a full blown conversion (like John or Dustin Linebaugh or Bowen)...

Well, I went ahead and purchased a BFR .454 Casull NIB and am really happy with this thing so far. I bought it to shoot really heavy 45 Colt +P loads but had to try out some factory .454 loads (260 gr. at 1800 fps) and can say that, although recoil was sharp, it was not punishing with this...

I posted this in another section but thought I'd put it out there where there are more viewers to respond. Any suggestions for any reputable gun stores in the Alpharetta, Ga. (North of Atlanta) area? My friend just moved there and he is looking to buy a Marlin 336CS and is also interested...

I posted this on TFL and thought I'd run it by you, as well? Just got a new Bisley Hunter and am very pleased with its accuracy. It seems to really like the 300 gr. Hornady XTP's. It'll shoot a .75 inch group at 25 yds. from my hands off of a sandbag. However, I've noticed that almost...

Hi all, Just got back Friday from the farm in Natchez, Ms. I had a good day on thursday since I bagged a 7 point buck at approx. 4:30pm (not much daylight left). Hit him just behind the shoulder at 150 yards with my trusty Marlin 336SC 30-30 w/ Winchester 150 gr. Power Point bullet. I'd...

Well, I had a fit of inspiration the other day and started drawing up plans for a reloading bench to help me get started reloading. I've looked all over for ideas and many of you here were very helpful by posting photos of your respective setups. Some of you were quite imaginative. Like, I...

Since I purchased my 629PP about 6 weeks ago I've been putting in the time learning how to shoot long ranges with open sights (I'm an Elmer Keith fan). I've gotten to where I've been able to shoot consistent 3 in. groups at 60 yds. and then yesterday I sort of upped the anti, if you will. I...

About a week and a half ago CBS' 48HOURS broadcast a story where an apparantly battered wife eventually shot and killed her alledgedly abusive husband. Now, I don't have a problem with them broadcasting the story if there is a question of whether or not the woman was justified in killing her...

I was at the store today and saw that the dealer had just filled out an entire case of Colt revolvers and semi-autos. Very impressive. He had a couple of King Cobra .357s and a 4" Stainless Anaconda in .44 Mag. It was a beauty. Everything about that gun said "pick me up." The finish was...

I have finally found my 50 yds. woods gun for deer. I just picked up a S&W 629PP (6.5" barrell w/compensator) and just got back from the range. This thing is shooting 1" groups at 40 yds. open sights (POI = POA + .5"). It blew me away. I love the patridge front sight too. The balance is great...

Anybody know of any outdoor ranges that are north/northeast of Everette, WA? I might possibly be moving there and need to know. Thanks, g_gunter

It was very encouraging to me when I read the following story: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/main.jhtml?xml=/news/2004/10/24/navago124.xml&sSheet=/news/2004/10/24/ixnewstop.html It seems the Brits are starting to fight back against their draconian laws against defense of one's castle...

I held a used BFR .454 with a 4 5/8th inch barrel ($599.00) the other day at a pawn shop and was impressed at the heft and tightness of the lockwork. I'm not interested in a .454 in any way but have been waiting for the opportunity to get a solid .45 Colt platform that is built to tight...

Well, I got it back in today after having sent it off to Kahr for work. They changed the front site and barrel. It now shoots dead center but is shooting high at the following ranges: 1.5" high @ 7 yds. 2.5 " high @ 10 yds. 3.5 " high @ 15 yds. 2.5 " high @ 20 yds. I'm not too concerned...

Hi all, Could someone provide me with a contact number for a real person in the S&W Performance Center (not customer service - they won't help)? My brother has a .44 mag Stealth Hunter with problems out of the box and he needs to speak to a live person with whom he can talk to to address it...

As much as I hate to admit it I am not enjoying my K9 at this point in time. Its strange but I love everything about the gun (especially the trigger). However, I can't seem to make that thing hit the broadside of a barn out past 10 yards and I really have to work at making it hit at 10 yds.. I'm...
