It's been a while since I've posted on here. But anyways... I'm looking to buy a new rifle, I would like a brand known for accuracy. Preferably bolt action. Semi works just as well. Caliber between .243 and .308. I'd like a .338 at some point, along with a 6.8. My only limit is this... $750 I...

I just bought 100 rds of it for my Mosin Nagant. I am overall happy with the performance, It is much better than the Brown Bear stuff. This stuff is also non corossive. So thats a plus. 148 grain FMJ. Does anybody have the Ballistic Coefficient for this bullet? I've searched and searched, and...

I went out today and played with my Mosin. I was horrified when they called for a cease fire, and to go check and place targets. There was only one bullet on the cardboard... at 100 yds.... So I tried again, same thing. Then I moved it out to 200 yds to see if it made a difference... I still had...

I just picked this up 2 days ago as my first shotgun. It was only $100 used. Anybody else own this weapon? Opinions, stories, accuracy (lol)? Still havent had a chance to go shoot her. I'm itching. I have 100 rds waiting for her. :P

I'm looking to spend between $250 and $500. I want it to be a rugged gun, able to be carried around. Beauty isnt a factor for this gun. Rough, tough, and a hard hitter is the name of the game here. Any suggestions? Preferably a 12 ga. A 20 ga. works just as well. Just for fun, hiking, and some...

Anybody have any good places where I can look? Just for parts to put together a custom sniper rifle... I like the "tactical" look. But anything like the R700 is pretty cool also. Whatever I decide to put together, I'd like it in .308 or 7mm. I want to start looking, but it'll be a while before I...

If you hear something at night, how do you clear your place? My house I swear is "haunted." lol. I'll hear someone going through the drawers... Then get down there with my Marlin 60 .22 lr.... :rolleyes: To find nobody. I'm not 21, thats why I dont have a pistol. It's either the marlin, or my...

So I want a 12ga shotgun. I was told that Mossberg's are good entry level, but wont last forever. Remington has some good entry shotguns, but last longer. That didnt narrow much down for me... And I've always wondered this. Can you put smaller gauges into a 12ga? Say a 14, 16, or 20ga... Any...

So I took my friend to the range today with my .22. It was his first time ever shooting a rifle. I should have thought of more to teach him before I took him. But I taught him basic range safety stuff. -Keep the barrel pointed down range at all times. -Treat all guns as if they are loaded...

I was being told the other day as soon as you buy tannerite the govt starts watching your activities even closer. And if they ever take our guns away, (over my dead body), The ones that have tannerite will get theirs taken first. It sounds like a heapload of liberal BS. Sorry, bias is showing...

So I went shooting today. She was pretty decent. Although she was shooting right of her target. How can I correct this? Or is this part of learning to shoot this particular rifle? Elevation wasnt too bad. Probably just error from me. I will be investing in a recoil pad very soon. :P lol

I posted a similar thread a long time ago. It was about fun and or challenging targets for a .22. Now I have a Mosin Nagant, as some of you know. I'm going to the range with her tomorrow. What are some cool targets that I can make or are literally 2-3 bucks. I'm living on my graduation money...

I hope this doesnt scare anybody too much. I have a Mosin Nagant M91/30 and bought a couple silhouette targets. Does anybody find it wrong to shoot silhouette targets at greater distances? I just like to challenge myself and see what the snipers guys had to aim at. And to see how I possibly...

I know some of you are thinking this is too much of a step. I've shot many rifles, and have always wanted a Mosin Nagant. I do realise that it packs quite a punch. But I dont flinch for any caliber of rifle. (That I've shot.... up to 300 Win Mag) Anywho, I got her for $100 ($105 with tax.) She...

I am only 18, and dont pay taxes, I dont have a passport or hunting or fishing licence.... I do have a paystub with my address on it, and I also have a bank statement that just came a couple days ago.... should this work alright? They both have my address on them. And my primary ID is my state...

You guessed it. I'm getting a Mosin Nagant tomorrow. :D Although I dont want to be paying full price for the bullets. I will at first. But what am I looking at cost wise per round?

Alright, so I have my Remington Thunderbolts at 40 gr. and 1255 fps, and the Winchester Plated Hollow Points at 36 gr. and 1280 fps. I have my rifle sighted in at 50 yds. Will the shots be close enough together to not have to worry about re-sighting? I have a ballistics calculator on my...

Heres a pic of her. I'll have to post some range pics when I get some. I also wish I could have taken some before and after pics. She was very dusty and a decent amount of rust on the barrel. She also has a couple knocks and scratches on the stock. But that just gives her more character. Can you...

Alright, I cant find info on this rifle ANYWHERE. Google, NOWHERE. Any ideas or suggestions? I can post a pic if you'd like. But it is pretty much a marlin 60. Just a different name.

At least I think its a marlin 60... But it has a letter at the beginning of the number. Here it is - B545591 It doesnt look like other serial numbers from Marlin. But it looks like a marlin. Could it be a Marlin 99? (Isnt that from 1959?) This is my first rifle I got today as a gift from my...
