    Anyone get decent accuracy from an SKS?

    Has anyone here been able to get decent accuracy from an SKS? I've been thinking about picking one up... they are cheap enough. I don't want my target to look like it got hit with birdshot, though.

    CCW for the heavier guys?

    I need some advice here. I am looking for a handgun for concealed carry. I am pretty chubby, so the rolls overhang the belt. I'd prefer not to spend a fortune on the firearm, and SA/DA is a must.

    GPS - Recommendations?

    I will be needing a new GPS for hunting this year. I had a Magellan Explorist 200, and it was nothing but problems right from the get-go. It only worked 10% of the time... the Topo 3D software that came with it never worked at all, and when I contacted Magellan about the issue, it took them 6...

    Bear VS shotty?

    I'm thinking of picking up a 12 Gauge pump or auto just to have with me when my friend and I go out hunting yote... I want something as a last resort, just in case. The largest animal in the area that I would have to worry about would be black bear. Chances are slim that one would ever attack...

    Need a cheap "eat anything" 22lr...

    With the $45 per magazine for my Remington Viper, and my overabundance of reluctance to purchase one at such a high cost, I am looking for a replacement. It has to be a semi.

    Uh oh! (Resizing issue)

    I have a BIG problem. I have 600+ rounds of once-fired Remington brass in .223. The paper that came with my dies says the maximum case length should be 1.760. After calling one of my friends and having him look in the hornady book, he says the minimum case length is 1.750. My cases are all 1.750...

    POI variance between shooters?

    I was talking with another shooter yesterday regarding sighting in a rifle. It seems to me that the best way to go about doing it is to put it on a rest so it will be held perfectly in place, and sight it in. The other shooter asked "why don't you do it the old fashioned way?" He went on to...
