Glad to see 1911fan mention the 7mm-08 to you. That would be my reccomendation. No offense meant to the .308, but the 7mm-08 shoots flatter and is ,in my opinion, the superior cartidge in that it can do anything the .308 can do. On the hunting side of things you could do much worse than the 7mm-08 a...
H&H, back then it was USPS delivery to the mailbox. NO stinkin' FFL's needed. I remember buying mossberg .22's from the army/CMP for $8.75 I still have a couple of them. There was a wholesaler in NYC that handguns from everywhere, I think RG's were 5 dollars, and H&R and Iver johnsons were ...

If you are taking rifle, it really can depend on the rifle itself. You have to put the range time in to find out what load will perform well in your firearm. I used to not beleive this, but after a couple of rifles that were very "finicky" I am a true beleiver in this. Handguns, in my opin...
I have purchased used at the store that seems to be the one being eluded to in this posting. I am confident that I got a good deal in this case. While often I find their used selection to be overpriced, I often find many vendors used selections to be overpriced. That said, my gun cabinets can attest...
Just wondering if anyone knows of a good spot within an hour of the twin cities (preferably south of the metro) for hunting late season rabbits. Wanted to take my kids out one last time before the season ends. I have hit a few of the WMAs in the past with no luck but will probably try a couple again...
My sediments exactly. I use a .25-06 for deer. I can place it just about anywhere I want. It can reach out to as far as I am comfortable shooting. And with modern bullets it performs well without much meat damage. By the way, is that .50 BMG story for real? What gunsmith would do that for a guy? Sho...
I agree with whats been said. Unfortunatly it is a buyer or seller beware economy and one has to do their homework to get the most value. With the plethera of info available on the web anyone can buy and sell competently.
What is the difference between now and waaay back then? NOTHING Well now with Steroid use rampant among the Cape Buffalo population, don't you think we need something better than the old .375 H&H to counter act them. I mean they just aren't the same creature as back durning the Safari hay days!...
