I picked up a walnut version (Field) of the SA20 over the winter. Love the gun! handles well, shoots anything I shove in it and the recoil makes me able to go through 200rds in a setting. Though the financial manager says that is to be a rare occasion. I don't have "safe queen" guns so it is...

Sorry, for the long read for such a simple question, but sometimes I think we lose the history of a rifle today and some have rich stories to share. I sit staring at my beloved "Bob" with saddened that it must be changed once again. It started life as a service rifle in 1944 in Germany as a 98...

With so many state elections coming up and arguably more at stake than in 2016, I figure a call to vote belongs in the activism page. Those who disagree, will find out when Congress and so many governors are anti-gun. So I post something I posted a while back (April). I sit in Norway now but...

I am looking at getting a general purpose and fun shotty to use with them at the trap range, in the woods, and maybe even in a 3 gun match at some point. I am a Marine and have more than a few AR builds at home making this an attractive one off shotgun for me to try out. I held the standard...

I am about to head home for a bit and waiting at home is a new 1895GBL. I had to return one for warranty work and the replacement didn't arrive before I departed for California. In fact, the call came in the day I left!! Dang it! In preparation for it in case it made it in time I threw...

As I came up through reloading, I came to realize that we spend a ton of time on it. Many times I read through how much time you all spend and while I do as well sometimes, I had to ask a question as I watched my kids clean their AR's after the last range day and I threw their brass in my...

These are the two in my sights. I am going to buy one of them in the next month. Just trying to get input as to which one. I know we all have our favorites, but I need input as to reasons behind such. Not simply it is what I have used always or the other sucks. This will be an all purpose...

Just picked up a matching set of Marlin lever guns; a 336BL and 1895GBL. Dies are on their way and I am waiting advice before ordering components. Might have to wait a bit longer to load since the Corps is deciding to send me away for training. However, lets get some input on loading. The 30-30...

I am thinking of a reloading change to achieve better long range capabilities hunting wise in my AR10 in .260 Rem. It is a DPMS based build with a 1:8 24" Black Hole Weaponry barrel and JP Enterprises parts elsewhere. Currently the load is 123gr SST over 42.5gr Hybrid 100V (well within book)...

So I will be headed to 29 Stumps for a few months. During this time I will be able to knock over some songdogs. Problem is my predator rig, and my kids' rigs are all AR based. My deer gun is an old Mauser (try finding ammo for a .257Roberts!) that I won't be able to load for out there. Taking a...

I have dug into this and gotten more and more confused. I have never felt the need to do it. Now, I am necking down a good bit of .308Win to .260Rem and think that I might need to. One for the excess and two for the fact that I want to make this a consistent 1k yard rifle. I reference one...

So I came across a sweet deal on some IMR4320. at $15/lb including tax, I couldn't pass it up. I checked really quick, made sure I could use it for the most consumed rounds in the family (.223) and bought all 12 cans. I figure for at least the kids plinking loads, it will work. I will be...

Here is a thread the I will track a build I have been dreaming of for a few years now. I will only update when something changes or to reply to you guys. Hope you enjoy as it may take a bit for all the parts to come in. First is the starting point. I bought the upper rifle a couple years ago...

I looked and I can find pistol .223 loads and rifle loads, but for the many who have SBR's (10.5" barrel or so), is anyone playing with dedicated loads for these? A friend just got one and wants me to load for him (and teach him to load later). Would h335 be a better powder than my current...

I know nothing about revolvers, but i have a fellow recruiter that is looking for one. He is looking midsize, could be carried. A mild caliber, but not miniscule either. Reasonably priced ($400-600) too. Sorry all he knows other than "I want a revolver" Any advice and pics to show him?

Ok, I know this is an odd question for the reloading section, but I think you all will understand the question more. I am about to start on a long awaited build of an LR-308 into another rifle. While I dream of a 1000yd AR type rifle, I know that my level of practice, budget, and typical use...

So I have often told others that I am a "liberal" and gotten odd looks. So I looked it up just to be sure that I was speaking true. adjective adjective: liberal 1. open to new behavior or opinions and willing to discard traditional values. "they have more liberal views...

Somebody made a mistake! Going through my brass today I found the center one. Notice the shape? It is a .243 brass that appears to have been blown out. I think someone loaded it in my .308 and fired it. That could have been VERY bad! I have been present every time the rifle (DPMS LR-308...

I decided I would post up how my hunting season went. First day of NC's bow season. I am posted on a farm with my oldest daughter (MaKala) 40yds from me. I put her in the better spot hoping she could score and not keep bumming out about being skunked last year. At last light the deer went to...
