    Best handgun safe for night stand?

    Hey guys, I would like to get a nice quick access safe for my handgun (probably will be going with a Glock 19). I want something that I can set on my night stand and something that I can access and open very quickly. I know GunVault makes some great stuff for quick access. What are your...

    First Handgun (Conceal Carry) - Suggestions?

    Hey guys, So I am looking into getting my first handgun. Now...I actually have a lot of experience with guns in general and I own several rifles and two shotguns. I actually shoot sporting clays competitively so I am not new to guns. I have shot many hand guns (Kimber 1911s, Wilson Combat...

    Cleaning after shooting a few rounds?

    I haven't shot my rifle in a while and I am thinking about taking it out to the range to make sure it is still zeroed. I plan on shooting maybe 10 rounds. What sort of maintenance should I do after this? Do I need to go at the bore and clean it really well or just run an oily patch down the...

    Best Glock for my needs?

    Hey guys, I am interested in picking up a Glock for concealed carry/home defense, but something that would also be enjoyable for some light target shooting (for practice of course). I don't want something so small that I lose accuracy, but I don't want something that is so big that it is...

    Is my cleaning technique good enough?

    Hey guys, So I wanted to get some opinions on my cleaning technique and see what you guys thought about it. I essentially follow this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-WRO17sk_dI I clean the rifle (Tikka T3 .243) after every time I shoot it, which may be overkill. I may switch to...

    Recoil Difference Between Different Grains?

    Well I am thinking about getting a 300 WM this summer, but I am a little worried about recoil. I have shot a 7 MAG and a 300 Ultra Mag (quite a bit more power behind it than a 300 WM), both with 150-170 grain bullets. I didn't find the recoil to be bad at all, and neither have muzzle brakes. My...

    Favorite bipod/shooting supports?

    I just thought I would ask what your guys' favorite bipod/shooting supports are for some hunting and long range target shooting? I have a BlackHawk Sportster 13"-23" as I need something that will work for both the prone and sitting position for hunting. To be honest I wish I would have got a...

    Your View on Coyote Hunting?

    I just started coyote hunting about 6 months ago and I like it (although I haven't got one yet). Every once in a while I wonder how "ethical" it is to kill them though? You don't eat them, so is it appropriate to kill them? Deer and elk you can eat, but coyote...not so much. Obviously I...

    Scope Caps??

    I have a Vortex Diamondback 3-9x40 (just a cheap $200 scope). I would like to get some flip up scope caps so I don't have to carry around the annoying caps that come with the scope. I don't need $50 scope caps, just something cheap that will work. Are the Vortex ones any good? What sizes...

    Target shooting rifle caliber

    I posted about a good big game hunting caliber earlier, but I am thinking about getting a gun this summer that I can truly put some range time in to increase my shooting ability. I am not considering a 22LR or a .223 as I already have a .243 and I would like something that I can shoot at longer...

    Big Game Rifle Caliber?

    Sometime this year (hopefully over the summer) I am looking into getting a rifle for big game and some longer range target shooting. I currently have a Tikka T3 Lite .243 that I use for coyote and white tail deer. I figure it is time to get something for elk, mule deer, etc. I would really...

    First day at the range!

    Hey guys went out today with my Tikka T3 Lite .243 and zeroed my scope (or at least kind of did). It was my first time ever zeroing or doing any of this so I wasn't as efficient as I could have been. I sort of over corrected with my scope adjustments which is why my shots at 200 yards are a bit...

    How to reset zero on Vortex scope?

    Hey guys I am just curious as to how to get a Vortex Diamondback back to factory spec/zero after the dials have been moved (haven't move them at all yet, just curious). There is nothing in the instructions on how to do this. It does show you how to simply unscrew the screw on top of the turret...

    Cleaning Rod?

    I am going to pick up a Tipton Deluxe Carbon Fiber rod for my .243 because I can get them cheap. My question is will this rod work with this RedHead kit that I have? http://www.basspro.com/RedHead-Premium-Universal-Gun-Cleaning-Kit/product/10202149/ I have specific brushes and mops for .243...

    Mounting a scope?

    Last question for a while, I promise! I have been watching Youtube videos on how to properly mount the scope. I have a Tikka T3 Lite .243 and plan on getting a scope here for it in the next few days. Are there any special tools I should get (bore sighter, etc)? Any other tips or suggestions...

    Can't decide on rifle caliber!

    Hey guys, so I can't for the life of me decide between the .243 and .308. It will be my first rifle (however I have a lot of rifle experience and have done a decent amount of hunting, just never had my OWN gun). I will be target shooting, hunting coyote and deer (mule and white tail). I don't...

Just got my hunter education license today. I am going to be getting a Savage Arms Hunter Model 11 in a .243 in the next...
