free dog/puppy

I have a 1/2 German Shepherd 1/4 Pit Bull Terrier 1/4 Boxer female pup born on Thanksgiving 2012 that is very well behaved and listens well, microchiped, shots and fixed I need to get rid of. I don't work in the winter and spent 4 months with her everyday and now that I'm back to working 10-14 hours...

Re: does anyone deer or bear hunt with a AR?

I'll be going to sight in my new 6.8 AR build on Friday. Just got my Vortex Viper PST 1-4x24 in the mail today, I'm hoping I can find a different barrel soon though. I have carbine gas and want mid length gas..

Re: does anyone deer or bear hunt with a AR?

Back to the OP's question which I believe was more about the platform than a caliber urinating contest. In short, I have hunted the last three years in the shotgun zone, with an AR pistol in 300 WTF. I have succesfully harvested 10 deer in that time. I have not had any that I have shot that have no...

Re: does anyone deer or bear hunt with a AR?

When i was much younger I used to go out and hunt my deer down, I remember one opening day in Wisc., by daylight I was a mile deep in the swamp country of Moose Juction, when I came out of the Belden swamp to HWY35 late in the afternoon I was 5 miles from the junction and the 3 miles down the Moose...

Re: does anyone deer or bear hunt with a AR?

^ same here. I jumped a BIG 9 point walking to my stand, late lol, two years ago and put a 150gr TTSX from a 30-06 right through the heart at 35-40 yards and that thing ran up and down ravines through some nasty stuff for about 125 yards with no heart! It wasn't hard to track him since there was blo...

Re: does anyone deer or bear hunt with a AR?

I've been carrying my DPMS .308 a bit lately but I sure wouldn't carry a .223, I consider the .308 a bit light as it won't shoot through a big deer from one end to the other, heck I've recovered a 250gr .338win. mag. bullet that didn't get all the way through a 172 lb (dressed) buck. John 308 a bit...

Re: anyone load 6.8 SPC??

Yes I have the Hornady manual but I'm moreso asking for the beat powder to load the 95gr TTSX I asked about above. As in maybe someone loads the same round And has a favorite powder they use.

What do you think is the general feeling out there, has anyone given you a hard time?

Re: does anyone deer or bear hunt with a AR?

Agreed ^ if you're sure of your shot and keep them within 100 yards a 223 with good bullet like TTSX or Accubound is plenty even for our big northern deer IF you can put the bullet where you want to. I'm planning on loading some 95gr TTSX rounds for the 6.8, they should be pretty devastating on the ...

Re: MN3GG 3-GUN SKILLS BUILDER

Dang, I've been playing with the thought of trying 3-gun and I live right down the road from Minnetonka G&F. Hopefully there will be another class like this coming up, I know a couple people that'd be interested.

does anyone deer or bear hunt with a AR?

I'm just curious to what the general feeling is out there for people that hunt with Modern Sporting Rifles (a nice term for AR-15). I recently finished my 6.8 SPC build and my hunting buddy came to check it out and decided he wanted one too. Sold his Model 70, gave me the $900 to buy and build him a...

Re: Foaming Bore Cleaning

I use to use Hoppe's Elite Foaming Bore Cleaner. Nowadays, I just run a bore snake through once with a little Frog Lube on the brushes after a range trip. Likewise, the Boresnake is a great little tool to keep in your kit. I have two AR's, a home built 6.8 SPC for deer hunting and a Colt 6920 and I...

Re: SBR laws?

You're 100% right, that'd be the easiest and cheapest route. I'm going to see if my FFL guy (Firing Line Sports) can do the transfer of the 6933 anyway because I would like to have the "real deal" Colt SBR. Even if I could find just a 11.5" Colt barrel I'd be happy and just install it...

Re: SBR laws?

Okay so looking around I found a factory 11.5" rifle I want, the Colt LE6933 Commando. They cost about $1800-$2000 NIB on GunBroker and after searching online it'd bemuch easier to buy a ccomplete rifle than trying to find an 11.5" Colt M4 barrel (which I found none for sale). That's where...
