    .22 Mag... Light/Fast or Heavy/Slow

    I recently snagged a S&W M&P .22 Mag Pistol. I have shot several different rounds of various bullet weights through it and is cycles everything like butter. I am 500 rounds in and have had one malfunction... and that was on the very first clip. Anyway, I want to purchase a bushel of ammo for...

    May be headed back to 7mm Mag....

    I have a Savage 110 Switchback (heavy bolt, Medium barrel, Ported) in a 6.5 PRC. Have owned the gun for a few moons and only recently found ammo, but only two boxes. Brass is nowhere to be found. Frustrated and the more I read... the more I wanted to go back to my roots of ELR shooting...

    Why no love for 6.5 PRC for ELR shooting?

    Starting back about 6 months ago, I started researching a gun and load that would provide some fun, shooting 1 mile..... maybe out to 2,000 yards, on a seriously tight budget. Over and over I read that a .338 bullet was the minimum and it needed a BC over .7 and muzzle velocity close to 2,900...

    .308 instead of the 6.5 PRC

    Yeah, I own a 6.5 PRC and I can't shoot it. Maybe.... I'm just too cheap, but I refuse to pay $100-$150 a box of 20 for ammo. So... it is sitting in the gun safe and because .308 is stacked very deep on the shelves, with my local gun store having ammo on a pallet, four feet high..... I picked...

    Savage Axis II Stainless.... opinions

    Buddy of mine wants to get into long range shooting for a very, very reasonable price. At Walmart, he found a Savage Axis II in Stainless in .308. He asked me what I thought. While I don't own, nor have ever shot an AXIS II, I do have a model 12 and three Model 110's that I love. Anyone...

    Maybe the perfect Whitetail round?

    Both the rounds below are 100gr, one being the venerable .243 Win and the other being the 6.5 Grendel. Now... when I say the 'perfect round'.... maybe I am referring to the perfect round for myself. You see, I had a bad motorcycle wreck four years ago, basically bouncing my body off a set of...

    Deformed Lead, Pointed Soft Point....Accuracy????

    A whole box of .243 Win, pointed soft point... has the lead point really damaged. The points are either squished or bend off to one side. One of these, is as it came out of the box. The other has been filed and polished by me. Will the filed/polished one be more accurate? When I was a...

    $1 a Yard.......

    Well, nearly $1 a yard..... I am hoping this will be a good little gun for me to start shooting 1k again.... on a seriously low budget. The whole platform cost me $1,068.... out the door, hence $1 a yard. Savage Model 110, 24" Medium Heavy Barrel and break and +20 MOA Rail. Vortex...

    Massive Scope on Rimfire

    Who has done it? Back when I was 16 years old, Dad had two, Winchester bench rest .22LR guns with 24" bull barrels that he used in the 4H Shooting classes he taught. I took one of those guns, removed the peep sights and mounted a 24x scope. I would tape pennies on cardboard boxes and try to hit...

    Just joined the Grendel club....

    I have wanted a Grendel for at least 5 years and just pulled the proverbial trigger..... Nope... didn't purchase a bolt gun, like I thought I wanted, I went the AR route.... I already own a 7.62 AR Mutant... so I simply purchased a 6.5G upper with a 20" Stainless barrel. I also dropped the...

    NOT in an AR....But a Bolt Action: 7.62 vs 350L

    What you all think? Which would you choose, if these were your only choices for a hunting rifle out to 150, maybe 200 yards. 7.62x39 or 350 Legend.... Bolt action, short action, light-weight hunting rifles. I don't need to 're-tell' the ballistics, 'cause you have read them on this forum over...

    Savage 110 Magazines.... (2022)

    I just purchased a Savage 110, 18" Heavy Barrel.... and the gun came with a solitary, single..... 4 round mag. Mine is a 350 Legend. I see that there is a 10 round mag for the .308 variety of this gun. Does anyone know if I can get a 10 round mag for 350 Legend? .......

    Maybe OSHA to cause the next ammo shortage?

    First of all... this isn't about the "C" word. This isn't conspiracy..... What legal rights do our ammo and gun companies have to stay in business during this trying time in our country? A lot of you may have read the read letter to Hornady employees from Steve Hornady on employment...

    Taurus G3C

    Last year my son purchased a G2C and a G2S, new package deal for $500 out the door. I really liked the gun overall and the reviews were decent.... especially for the price. But I just didn't like the trigger. Then this summer, Taurus released the G3C. After watching Hickock45's review, I...

    Marlin XT-22M .22 WMR

    The first gun I graduated too from the .22LR, bolt action, child's version, was an old 22 Mag from my grandfather and with that gun I killed my first deer. At age 6, I hit her between the eyes at 25 yards. For all these years, the 22 Mag has had a soft place in my heart, and I have never owned...

    Are Heavier Bullets Better?

    This has probably been an eternal debate and I think it is worth re-debating on a regular basis with new powders and technology in bullets, etc.... being developed annually. So here is the question..... Are Heavier Bullets Better? Maybe the ole aught six is a good place to start the debate...
