Hey, I shoot my 22lr. and my 17 hmr. all the time. I have several different places that I can shoot safely at. What I mean is I don't have to worry about ricochet. The places are pretty vacant. I always use a 2x4 built backstop, to hold my targets.The face of the backstop is actually 2x10s that I do...

I bought a CZ 452 in .22LR. It is a nice gun, but the trigger had the most creep I have ever felt in a rifle. I did some research and came across rimfirecentral.com, and the YO DAVE shim and spring kit was highly recommended. It sells on ebay. I bought and installed it. With a little trial and error...

I just received my scope rings for my CZ 452 American. I guess some people have trouble finding rings that fit the dovetail on the CZ's because they don't know what size the dovetail is. It is either 3/8 or 11mm. Regardless, the rings I ordered will work for either size. I ordered BKL brand. I order...

I decicded to buy a CZ 452. I found a good deal and went for it. I have already ordered scope rings, extra mags, and a trigger kit . I should have all of that stuff this week. I still like the Weatherby, but it is alot money for a .22lr. I have a .17hmr in a Savage. I like the Savage platform. I wan...

I was thinking about adding a new .22 LR to the collection, and I had asked about the Weatherby XXII, and a CZ 453, in some earlier posts. The Weatherby is nice, and CZ is is also nice, at half the price. The Weatherby is probably too rich for my blood, and I am not so sure about the CZ. A number of...

I guess I should have put my Weatherby XXII question and this one together. Does anybody own a CZ 453, or something similar? I also like this gun. I have read good things about this gun has well. I have always wanted to have a CZ. I know this model is less expensive than the Weatherby. Like I said, ...

Does anybody out there own a Weatherby XXII? I am interested in buying one, and I want to know if it is worth the money. I have always wanted a high end .22 LR. I don't know why I want one. I just know that I want one. From what I have read, they are very nice. I guess I should expect that from Weat...

I mainly use Hornady and Nosler. I go after coyotes. I use a .223 for that, and I use the 55 grain V max, and the 55 grain Ballistic tip. They both shoot well for me, and they do the job on a yot'e. I have used CT Ballistic SilverTips for deer in my .243. They are 95 grain, and seem to work well. I ...

Hi, I also have a Marlin XL7 rifle in 270 win. I have had very good accuracy with Remington Core Lokt 130 grain. I am able to put a 3 shot group into a 1 inch circle, at 100 yards. I am shooting off a bench, and I take my time. I also have tried the 150 grain Core Lokt's. My group opened up, but it ...

Hi, I was have a buddy that used to reload for his Remington 7mm mag. That was 20 years ago. More recently he has been thinking about starting to relaod again. This time he has a Weatherby 7 mm mag. He has plenty of once fired Weatherby brass, and he just picked up a reloading die. He is ready to go...

I received my Speer Gold Dot 170 grain .38 cal bullets last week. I loaded 5 with Accurate #9, and 5 with Alliant 2400. I used the load data that I got directly from Speer. I followed their load data exactly. I started with their minium numbers. I also kept c.o.a.l. to what they suggested. Shooting ...

Does any one have any experience with the Speer Gold Dot SP 170 grain bullet. I am loading for my .357 magnum I have some ordered, and plan on loading some for practice at first, and then maybe try them out on deer. That is if I can get one to lay down in front of my stand, and pose for me. I am goi...

Hey, I have a question for you guys that use a handgun for hunting. I would like to reload for .357 Magnum. I want to shoot pigs, and go after deer has well. I would like to know what grain bullet, and what powder that other people have tried. I have three different reloading manuals, but I would li...

I was just at Cabela's on Friday, and they had a bunch of Remington small rifle 6 1/2. I am looking for large rifle. I was just wondering if any one knew of any shop around town that may have large rifle. I guess I don't know what is the most difficult to find. I know that Cabela's is limiting pisto...

I am shooting a savage .243 with a 22 inch barrel and a 1 and 9.25 twist.
