    Tell me how good you shoot your ultralight

    Probably about 8.5 maybe a little heavier. I have tikka superlight in 7mag with SM rings and leupold vx5 3-15 and it weights 8.5. Good gun

    Howa big fin edition rifles on sale

    I definitely agree with you that it overlaps those other cartridges and the marketing hype for the cartridge was over the top. Add in some of the crazy things people said about it on the internet and I think a lot of people share your view. I really don't get caught up in the marketing hype of...

    I think being a gun owner of any type in Hawaii is pretty tough. I feel for you.

    Howa big fin edition rifles on sale

    The other day when I went in to deal with mine the guy at the counter said they were selling like hotcakes. I was like the fourth or fifth guy to come in and do paperwork on one that day.

    Howa big fin edition rifles on sale

    I don't think so. I ordered one and it came in the other day. I went down to do the paperwork and look at it. The stock looks decent and it's pretty light. I think if you buy that stock alone from Stocky's its more than $499. 6.5 creed is a bit polarizing but if you disregard the hyperbole...

    How Far is Too Far? Wyoming Legislature Mulls Shot Distance Restrictions

    How much of a problem is this really? Yes you have some YouTube slobs taking excessive shots but does that represent the majority of us? I for one vary how far I'm willing to shoot based on the circumstances at that time. I shoot a lot so I'm comfortable with longer ranges but I always strive...

    I need shotgun advice

    I own and can recommend the A300 outlander in 12, the a400 excel in 12, new model montefeltro in 12, old model montefeltro in 20. The a300 has a reasonable price and is a very good gun. I think Midway has a camo 12 version for $599 right now. For a rough use shotgun it offers a lot. Mine...

    Idaho Seeks to Limit Scope Turrets and Rangefinders

    I didn't see the section where you had a conversation with IDFG and I didn't say I thought you were wrong. I was really just trying to be courteous to you so you wouldn't have to unnecessarily sell your scope. I will say that I think that whomever you talked to at fish and game doesn't know...

    Idaho Seeks to Limit Scope Turrets and Rangefinders

    I saw your post and noticed you are selling your VX 6 because you think that they are illegal in Idaho. I was wondering what was illegal about them? I'm guessing the illumination of the reticle but I could be wrong. I don't want to get in your business but Idaho doesn't prohibit illuminated...

    Suggestions for a quail gun?

    I can highly recommend the montefeltro and the a400. Both are great and will serve you well. If you like the double the beretta silver pigeon 20 is fantastic as well as the browning cxs 20. I have both with 28 inch barrels. If you like the sxs look hard at the cz bobwhite g2 with 28 inch...

    44 mag vs 10mm for grizzly

    Ability to accurately place your shot and bullet choice should be prime considerations in any choice. Hard cast seem to be the way to go. 44 is harder to shoot than 10mm but packs more punch. I suspect in most instances the shots would be pretty close so it may not matter that much. 10mm...
