I wasn't sure where the best place to post this is, but here it is. I ran into some info on the web and thought I would share. This is worth the read. To begin in brief... Hoppes Elite cleaner and MPro-7 cleaner is a water based, almost odor free cleaner/degreaser/carbon remover. Most who have...

What I need: -True 1X -Variable up to 4x or more -Better light gathering abilities than my Nikon 1-4x20 african scope -Preferably fairly light weight -DOES NOT HAVE a fast focus eye piece (unless it is somehow "lockable" to a certain setting, not sure if that even exists:confused:) -Duplex or...

Weaver style rings Matte black 1" diameter Lowest possible 49040 rings shown here have a height of .089" Is there anything lower? I'm mounting a Nikon 1-4x monarch african series on a Marlin 336 30-30 BL

I'm recently starting to learn how to use aperture sights on my 336BL 30-30. I bought skinner sights, and i'm using a custom height front sight from him(flat top not a bead), and his aperture rear sight w/ the standard .096" aperture. (excellent customer service and product BTW) At 50 yards...

I have a 30-06 Savage 111G purchased as of 3 or so years ago, for the range i'd like to lower the trigger pull to be a bit lighter than it sits now, adjusted to the min setting. I've read things regarding having the gun fire when fully closing the bolt after going 'too far' with a lightened...

Let me start by saying my good friend text messages me the other day, saying something about how his soon to be brother in law bagged an elk out east (eastern LI) with his bow. I immediately called BS. He swears to it, then today he tells me that its a red stag. Now i really tell him his future...

I'm looking at getting these to fit a Bushnell 4200 4-16x40 scope onto a Savage 111G 30-06. I need to know what ring height i should get? I'm looking to get it as close to the receiver as possible. Here is the listed sizes (bottom of ring opening to rifle receiver) LOW: .400" MEDIUM: .500"...

So the only scopes i have mounted were on a CZ 452 and a marlin 60, both of which the rings clamp right onto the receiver. I am not familiar with the differences between a 'weaver style' and others, and how to tell what rings work with what bases. So a little 101 help would be appreciated...

#17 on this diagram I need to buy a new extractor spring for my 1300, I found one place that sells it, http://www.midwestgunworks.com/page/mgwi/prod/U126400090 Anyone deal with this company before? If i could find it cheaper, great, b/c $7.50 + ? S&H seems a bit steep for a spring. Brownells...

I was wondering if savage or an aftermarket company makes a 26" 30-06 barrel for my savage 111? I searched briefly online but everything seemed to be 22" barrels. I don't want stainless steel.

Ordered myself 500 rounds of 30-06 150 grain soft points of Prvi Partizan. I bought this as cheap paper punching ammo. I plan on doing lots of practice with these rounds, and provided they shoot accurate i was going to use them for whitetail/black bear next year. Can anyone give me any bad...

My 1300 has had some extraction issues where its leaving a spent casing behind in the chamber. I took it apart and noted that the extractor claw does not always return to its fully retracted position, as well as it does not seem to have the spring tension it used to. I made sure there isn't any...

I have plenty of once fired brass from factory winchester 150 grain 30-06, as well as remington corelockt 150 grain rounds. I have been saving them all, even though currently, I do not reload. I plan on reloading in the future. The future being probably more than a couple years from now. What I...

I was pleasantly surprised last night when i went onto the H&R website and i saw that i can get a .50cal muzzle loader barrel for my single shot pardner! =) anyhow i'm looking for anyones experience with this. from the accuracy of it compared to dedicated muzzle loaders, to their customer...

I'm from the north east and i keep hearing about these really small deer in florida (possibly some surrounding states?) anyway these are white tail deer correct? whats the reason for their size... i would have thought..like the fresh water fish..since the climate is so mild they would grow the...

I was cruising through some online ammo stores and stumbled upon some A-square ammo. a monolithic solid 180 grain loaded into the 30-06. i was wondering what other companies if any load these. and what is the availability of non expanding very hard bullets that fit in the 30-06. I'd also like...

I'm considering this scope for a savage 111G, 30-06. Reason i'm looking at this is b/c i will only hunt about 5 days or so total a year with it, the rest of the time is range time. so i wanted more magnification than a 2-7x or a 3x9. price range varys but figgure keep it under $400 (good...

This is my first centerfire rifle, that i personally own. so i am unaware if this is normal or not. anyway, shot the gun say 120 rds. (30-06) went back to the range groups were all over the place. came home and took a look over the gun, action screws loose. tightened them up (firmly snug...
