    Partner Competitions

    Hello all, So I thoroughly enjoy pretty much all shooting sports. I was hoping to get into 3-gun this year, but my sources for a couple things just didn't come through and I didn't want to spend a ton of money on anything other than ammo. I'd like to work up to a few other competitions I was...

    Range test for new rifle (and me)

    So I made some swaps recently because I was hardware-rich, but not stuff I was actually going to end up using any time soon. I traded into a Mossy MVP .223 with the bull barrel and scope. I took it to the range this last weekend to double check the POI and just see how it fed with different...

    Clay Pigeon Fun

    So a quick range report from this weekend: I had bought a combo Stevens 320 and have used the long barrel to pattern a little, but no actual hunting/clays use. This weekend I finally got out to the trap range (for the first time in probably 15 years) with it. I found that I really need a bit...

    Sig Sauer Emperor Scorpion

    This bad boy is one slick gun. My buddy was gettin married in TN this past weekend and so my other buddy and his fiance, freshly an officer of the peace, wanted to stop by a range seeing as they are from the USSNY and he hasn't ever actually shot a handgun. So she gave her Glock19 with the NYS...

    Helping out a Newbie

    Alright, so I am taking my roommate to go shooting this weekend. They have expressed interest in becoming proficient because they would like some self defense in the home. They have said they have looked into concealed carrying, but didn't really seem to have a real want to go that route, so...

    Range Day Fun

    So I finally made time to get to the range with my auto-loaders. Recently got into an AR and I gotta say, it was very enjoyable. Even got to pick up brass from the guy next to me and his AR. Why don't people just keep their brass, was one of my thoughts today. Excited to put scopes on both...

    H&R Barrel Swaps

    I know I've seen it here before, I just can't seem to get the search function to find what I'm looking for. My LGS has an H&R with the .223 varmint barrel for well under $200. No other barrels. I remember reading that extra barrels are not plug n play, but is there someone/somewhere that will do...

    Stag Arms Blemishes

    So with the current political climate (not a discussion starter, not the point of the post), and the urging of a good friend of mine, I am in process of possibly picking up a Stag Arms blemished upper + lower. No barrel, gas, stock. My question is, have any of you bought any of these blemished...

    Hog Bullets

    So reading up on one of the other posts about hunting/ARs, a lot of people use ARs for hog hunting due to fast follow up shots. Many people say .223 is marginal on deer, but it is still used quite a lot (mostly about shot placement, but that's a different discussion). I did a search and read a...

    Mini14 Sight

    So, I've got a hankering for a mini 14, no good reason, don't need to discuss it's pros or cons, that's been done. What I would like advice on is what to put on top. Due to the nature of its accuracy, I'm thinking a 2MOA red dot or smaller, but will that be enough for 150-200yd/m maximum (unless...

    S&W M&P9 2.0

    So I finished paying off a lovely M&P9 2.0 with 5" barrel in flat dark earth last Friday. So, naturally, I took it out to shoot on New Year's Eve. I also just broke up with my gf, so I took her pistol to shoot one last time. And I hadn't shot my carry gun for a month, so I took that too. 1st...

    Closest 1000yd Range

    So I believe this is in the right spot, but move if I'm wrong. After reading through a bunch of posts and research, it appears that 1000yd ranges are kind of rare. Which surprised me because I have one less than 15 minutes from my house with good traffic. So I'm now curious: how many of you...

    Scope for 1000yd/m Shooting

    So I'm looking for a precision, tactical turret, scope for 1000yd/m shooting (I know that 1000yd does not = 1000m, but I'm not ruling mrad scopes out, so just keeping my options open). I recently purchased an MVP LC from my buddy, but he didn't have the scope package Vortex 4-16x44 on it that I...

    CETME C308

    So a while back, I had looked into getting into a semi auto 308. Didn't have a great reason at the time, still don't. But I found a real nice one on Armslist and figured I'd go after it. To make the accountant happy, I decided on selling a few firearms that I currently had but weren't all...

    IER/LER Scopes

    Hello folks, I am hoping that a few people might be able to help here. I am looking for an IER/LER scope for a scout rifle that I'll be buying in the near future. Yes I know that the "scout" concept is very polarizing, but I would appreciate if we could not discuss that as it is out of the...

    .308 Muzzle Length vs. Velocity

    In researching what rifle I'd like next(really already have made the decision), I came to a question: what really is the difference between muzzle lengths? There are a plethora of threads here on the subject of muzzle length vs. velocity in general, slightly less so on the .308 specifically. A...

    H&R Shotgun(s)

    So in another thread someone asked about the new single shots from Savage and the break action shotguns (from what I know) are just clones of the H&R shotties. Obviously if H&R went out of business, I think that their decision is a questionable one, but that's really not my initial point here...

    What to do now CO?

    So I remembered (what seemed like a couple weeks ago) that there was a committee that was attempting to make a bill to repeal the "high capacity" mag ban in CO. So I looked it up over lunch...

    Mosin Nagant keyholing

    So I got back to the range last Saturday to try out my new EDC mags (which worked flawlessly) but also to shoot my Mosin and get some real accuracy stats out of it. To this point I have never shot anything but SP, brass-cased, hunting rounds. About a month ago I was at Wally World and was...
