I’ve been researching the internet on the 223 as a big game round - specifically for antelope. I was directed to several TFL threads, a couple of which originated as Wyoming was gearing up to accept the .223 Rem as a big game round. Well, that happened and the .223 Rem. is (and has been for a...

And I get to go - I'm so stoked! (Finally took a day of so I could) Have a fairly new SA 1911 Loaded .45 for handgun, Remington 11-87 12ga for shotgun, and Colt AR15 for rifle. I know the equipment should be competitive, but I'm still getting used to the pistol and holster combo...

It's time my little girl started going shooting with her daddy and her OWN gun. :cool: I'd love to get her a chipmunk, but she's left handed and I can't find one for a lefty. I don't want to confuse her with learning lefty techniques on a right hand rifle, but can't find anything of which...

I got an interesting phone call earlier this evening - No one on the line answered my repeated "hello" so I started listening... I could hear static and multiple conversations in the background. Sounded like Spanish, but I wasn't sure - the cadence sounded Indian or Pakistani. I figured it...

I'm going mountain lion hunting in the morning. Taking the hound out to try to track one down for a friend with a license. Wish me luck - I'll report back...

About a half hour ago I heard this on talk radio (KFI AM640, based out of California) - Some guy called in to ask the host - Bill Handel - if he had legal grounds to sue two bounty hunters who burst into his home shouting and cursing. They were looking for some wanted guy, don't know the...

This might fit better under the reloading forum, but we'll try here first - It looks like I'm going on a hog hunt in April or so. I borrowed a handgun from my father for the event, but I'm having trouble coming to terms with the bullets available for reloading for it. I realize that hogs are...

I saw one of these at a local gunshop and fell in love with it. Stainless steel, dark stained walnut, octagon 20" barrel in .44 mag. A perfect match for my stainless .44 mag Ruger Blackhawk! Anyone have one (The Puma) and what do you think of it? Course with the search function down, I...

Today was a failure as far as hunting success goes, - well maybe not totally. But I did my best to live up to the saying - "The worst day hunting is better than the best day at work." Started off well before daylight, driving north for nearly and hour and then spending dawn and a couple hours...

I met with a friend today at a local range. He had a M-1 Carbine (older surplus rifle) that he had just gotten a few months ago and was shooting it seriously for the first time. He didn't know who made it and I can't read the name stamped ont he back of the reciever - rear sight cover part of...

I just got back from a bit of a hiatus. One of the first changes (among many - good job admin!) that I've noticed is the addition of the Barfn' smiley icon. Boy I can't tell ya how cool I thought that was! It expresses an entire range of opinions so well and was a really needed addition to...

Actually twice! I've been missing my FAL since trading it to another loving home last year and have been just looking for the opportunity to get a hold of one again. That opportunity came last week in the form of a sealed auction. I bid on a total of 4 guns in the auction and came away with 3...

Went out this morning on a bow hunt with my wife looking for elk. About 8:00 a.m. we located a group coming up a wooded draw right toward us. We couldn't see them, but the bull was bugling and talking constantly as he hearded his harem. We took apropriate ambush positions and waited. I saw six...

I use a Dillon 550B and have never had any problems or incidents before. I have happily and successfully loaded upwards of 10,000 in this press without a hitch, but this morning I was in for a shock. I was merrily reloading along - Add new bullet, add new case, handle press and pull, rotate...

Rush is doing several pieces right now on various gun bits, from the teacher shooting herself to hillary's hypocracy in taking armed secret service people into a school with out informing parents. Good stuff. :) To listen, go to: http://www.rushlimbaugh.com/
