Pump Shotgun Feedback/Sugestions?
If used is an option my vote is for a used 870 Wingmaster. I use an 870 Express, but I understand the concerns of more recent 870s.- Buckyranger42

What rifle to build?
Yeah, I wasn’t sure about that when that was my suggestion. Bummer as that would be a cool complement to your 6.5 PRC, and very effective for how you plan to hunt with it.- Buckyranger42

shortages
Can’t even find .22 ammo here in NE WI. Cabelas had 8 boxes of 300 rounds a couple months ago. I bought 6 of them and don’t know why I didn’t buy them all because I haven’t seen .22 ammo since (other than a few boxes here and there of small qty performance ammo). Local gunsmith sourced...- Buckyranger42

Thinking of buying an O/A shotgun
I started doing some research myself for a clay/pheasant o/u. I’m traditionally a pump guy but there are some benefits to the o/u. Found this recent review of a CZ in that sub-$1000 price point - very informative/mixed/fair in typical Ron Spomer fashion...- Buckyranger42

What are you currently reading?
The Final Frontiersman. When I start to look forward to winter, for some reason I like to read and watch shows about places with MUCH harsher winters than what I have to deal with!- Buckyranger42

How to Pick a new hunting round?
Well, I suppose most would say it’s a combo of everything, and I’d also guess folks would say accuracy trumps all. I was in the same boat recently. I was using a thin jacketed bullet that was extraordinarily accurate, but I am a meat hunter so I would really need to be careful with my shot...- Buckyranger42

Deer Rifle help
I had a Browning X-Bolt Hunter (matte blued barrel, wood stock) in 7mm-08 with Vortex Razor HD LH 1.5-8 scope. Perfect WI whitetail rifle. I sold mine because I prefer a Rem 700 action/safety, so now I use a Rem 700 BDL - classic wood/blued barrel - in 30-06. All of your options are solid...- Buckyranger42

To clean or not to clean
Why is that, given lead ammo is copper-jacketed? I’m switching to all copper so I’m curious. Sorry, don’t mean to hijack the thread but it seems like the powers-that-be have firmly established it’s best to hunt with a “seasoned” barrel. :)(y)- Buckyranger42

Perfect magnification ?
I’ve got a 1.5-8 Razor HD LH on my WI whitetail rifle, a 2-10 Razor HD LHs on my “anywhere and everywhere” 30-06, and a 3-15 Razor HD LH on my 300 WM for out west. Awesome scopes! I personally really like the G4 BDC reticle.- Buckyranger42

3-9 will get you quality for the lowest cost. 2-10 is awesome but a bit more expensive, usually 3-15 I think is most versatile but highest cost for quality- Buckyranger42

Do-it-all freezer filling rifle
1. 30-06 2. Remington 700 (used BDL is best value for class and quality, IMO); Weatherby (Vanguard would be quality value); Howa (respect to the site’s sponsor, and they are synonymous with Vanguards)- Buckyranger42

Whats the best deer cartridge?
.270, despite the fact I’ve never even used a .270 to hunt deer. I’ve used a 20 gauge, 30-30, 7-08, 7RM...and I’d have to say the .270 is the best overall pure deer cartridge.- Buckyranger42
