.308 Stevens 334 ongoing thoughts and review.
Got to the range today. I shot 2, 1 inch groups out the box. My buddy also shot a 1 inch group, however my other buddy could not stand the scope I had attached and shoot a little wider group (the scope did not sit far enough back for his eye relief and so he was shooting from a very awkward...- BenimusPrime

.308 Stevens 334 ongoing thoughts and review.
Just figured I would post my thoughts and experiences with my new back up rifle. I grabbed a cheap sling and 4x scope on Amazon with some Christmas gift cards for a full build under $400. Out of the box, the weight seems nice and it feels good to have a good old wood checkered grip. The trigger...- BenimusPrime

Budget .308 bolt action recommendations
UPDATE Well, I had thought this was gonna be a shopping search into the new year, and I am thankful for the advice and opinions I got so quickly (I'll keep them in mind if it turns out I made a bad call lol), but Fleet Farm made my choice.

You're not wrong, but that extra $250 also would put me in the range I could find ok semi auto's too. I have frankly been shocked how much the price gap between bolt/lever guns and semis has shrunk while I have been shopping on this lol.- BenimusPrime

Budget .308 bolt action recommendations
I am looking to get a .308 bolt action as a back up to the G3 knockoff I'm using as my main deer gun currently. Figure then I can give great grandpa's Montgomery Ward 30-30 lever action to one of my nephews to get it in the hands of a 5th generation and my deer rifles can share ammo then. I'm...- BenimusPrime

Best whitetail state
You looking for meat or a rack? Michigan always seems to have the big bucks, but central Minnesota will have farmers begging you to hunt in their field filling 3 antlerless tags.- BenimusPrime

Wild vs planted pheasants, wow....
Given the choice between the 2, definitely prefer wild birds. Although, my family always started the season going to a place that raised birds. It was more fun than shooting clays to get your aim back from the off season.- BenimusPrime
