    WV Early Season Doe Hunt (Pics & Video Added)

    I like that WV offers the Early Antlerless Only Deer hunt and I was glad to see that Monroe County was one of the select counties. Not only can people help with the high ratio of does to bucks but also it gives a great opportunity to put meat in the freezer. I decided that I would attempt...

    Squirrel Hunt - New Rifle Test Run

    I picked up a little Mossberg 715t flat top. I was back and forth between some of the other .22 autos but just couldn't put the $$ down for the more expensive ones. I opted to go w/ the Mossberg and from the first trip to the range I've been very pleased. When reading reviews, I got a complete...

    WV Thunder Chicken Down! (Pics)

    Well folks, let me share my weekend with you and a dilemma that I faced. I had planned to drive home and see my Mom & Grandmothers as well as another Spring Turkey hunt for Saturday, so I drove back home after work on Friday. As I was about an hour from my Mother’s home my good friend called...

    NEF 'Survivor' 223 (PICS)

    I had been looking at single shot rifles for quite a while and, after much consideration, I ended up buying this NEF Survivor 223 and I'm very pleased with it. I topped it with a Tasco 6x24x42 Target scope w/Mil-Dot Reticle. This scope fit my budget and I won't lie, I think that Mil-Dot is cool.

    Handgunning for Squirrels!

    This morning I had planned on muzzleloading but by 8:30 AM I had changed my mind. The wind was howling and I had a better idea. I went back to the truck, dropped off my muzzleloader and grabbed my .22 Pistol. By 11:30 I had bagged these 4, all of which were good sized grays. If I hadn't missed...

    Rem 700 SPS Tactical .223 - Rate of Twist?

    I am looking into buying a .223 rifle, mainly for the range use and the occasional varmint hunt. I would mainly be shooting up to 400 yards at the range. I'm looking at the Remington site but I don't see the 'Rate of Twist' for the barrel for the .223. Anyone know...

    Ruger SBH 44 Mag - First trip to the range

    I picked up my first large bore revolver recently and finally got to take it to range and put it through it's paces. I ended up shooting twenty-five 240 gr. hollow points at 35 yards. The first two were very high, but I had to adjust the sight picture that I was using. After this, the following...

    Range Report - 22WMR vs 17HMR

    I went to the range this past weekend with a good friend. We pitted his Savage .17HMR vs. my Marlin .22WMR. I will say that the wind was variable and did effect some of the shots, as well as our human error. End result, we had a blast and still argue about which is better! We shot Hornady 17...
