RE: Long Range Shooters(RR?)

In that price range, to be honest, its gonna be tough to find something with solid, repeatable turret adjustments. If 500 yards is your "target" range, no pun intended, my suggestion, and what I have...

RE: T/C Encore Wood stock & blued

T/C Encore's hold the distinction of being both some of the most astoundingly accurate and abismaly inaccurate rifles Ive fired. The word polarizing comes to mind, as in you either get one ungodly...

RE: Browning A Bolt ?

While Ive pulled the trigger on too few 1st Gen's to comment, I have heard from people I trust that the 2nd gen tended, overall, to have an accuracy edge. My experiance with the A-Bolt II has been...

100 yds is often considered an acceptable maximum under ideal conditions for the 22LR. That being said, Ive had windy days I couldn't hit a beer can at 75 yrds with any consistancy, and Ive had calm...

RE: Are 200 yd slug guns ethical to dispatch a deer?

First to keep from further hi-jacking of the thread, I will say my personal opinion you should try to keep the slugs inside 150 yds for accuracy considerations more so than power or expansion. As...

RE: Lightfield Slug performance on my deer

Very nice. Suprised it didn't exit though?! You mentioned it was a high hit, did you catch either or both shoulders? Purely curious.

RE: Youth Stock for Rem 700 Mtn LSS

The stock from a Rem 700 SPS Youth should work. Maybe some extra room around the barrel but otherwise just fine. Your Remington dealer should be able to get you one, probably around $150.
