    .300 Savage compared to .308 Win

    I just picked up a Savage 99 in .300 Savage caliber. Really a classic and the rotary magazine-lever action is pretty cool. Hopefully the weather permits this weekend and I can get to the range. So, if I understand correctly, the .300 Savage is a 'parent' of the .308 Win? Using a 150 grain...

    K98 sporter stock

    I'm in the middle of sporterizing my K98. Actually, it's done except for a stock. I prefer a wood stock, schnabel forend if possible, for a military barrel. Any help on who makes a replacement 'sporter' style stock for this configuration?

    S&W 1500 bolt-action

    Was at my LGS a few days ago and saw one of these on the used gun rack. Found it to handle pretty well, has good traditional looks (wood and steel) and looks to be quality built. So what's the experience with these? The one I saw is in .30-06 caliber with a 22" bbl. Thanks

    New rifle in 7mm Mauser

    Marlin 444

    Always been interested in this rifle/caliber. Got a chance of picking up a 'safe-queen' and was wondering just how good the caliber is. Specifically for hogs and maybe deer. Any help will be appreciated. By the way, I don't reload so it'll be factory ammo. Thanks

    .338 Federal

    Ok, I admit I like the 'off' calibers. That said, what's the story with the .338 Federal? It had a good start a while back but I don't seem to see much on it anymore. Anyone have one? How's the performance?

    8mm for hogs

    Going to a farm next week to go after some hogs. Taking my Yugo Mauser instead of my Ruger Hawkeye in .308. So what's a good ammo for the Mauser? Shots will probably be under 100 yards. Any suggestions?

    44 Automag

    I've had mine for a few years now, mostly on display with a range trip or two a year. I read a while back that Kodiak Arms was going to re-introduce the 44 Automag. Never heard anything else again. Is this like Vltor with the Bren Ten or is there anything to this? Thanks

    Commander size 1911 in .40 cal?

    Ok, indulge me a minute. I've been shooting an STI hi-cap in .40 caliber. Love it. So much that I've been thinking about a Commander size, single stack, to use for ccw. So who makes one, does anyone have one, and what's been the experience with it? Thanks

    Ruger SR9

    I shot one a while ago and liked it so much that I just got one. The ergonomics are excellent. Slim, short, and the grip feels really good. Even better, the wife likes it. So it's now the 'night stand' gun. The question is this for those who have one; how well has it performed? I'm loading...

    Parker Hale rifle

    I've seen a couple from time to time but never really handled one. I now have the opportunity to pick one up, model 1200, in .30-06 with a 24" bbl. So the question is how does this rifle compare to a M70 or Rem 700? Thanks

    9.3 x 62mm Mauser

    Ok, maybe my ignorance is showing here but while I've heard of this caliber I have no experience with it. What standard or 'American' caliber does this equate to? I've used the 8 x 57mm and the 7 x 57mm and of course the 30-06and 300 WSM. Ballistics and recoil? Any help will be appreciated.

    .338 Federal...how good?

    Looking at getting a dedicated hog gun. Also, I like some niche calibers not just the accepted popular choices. Hence the interest in the .338 Federal. So, how good is it really? Accuracy and recoil are important as I'll probably be using a Ruger Hawkeye. Any help?
