the .284

Has anyone here shot the .284 winchester round much and what did you think about its performance? Can .284 new brass still be purchased relatively easy? I like the design of this cartridge, even...

RE: 308 winchester

To biscuit jake: Well, it good to hear from someone that has used the M14 in the military. Personally, I like the .308 cartridge design better than the 30-06. I've had several 30-06s and have...

To NVMIKE: Listenup dude! I didn't say anything about me using 22s on deer or anything else - I was simply commenting on the controversy itself and how I thought it was out of place to begin...

RE: .22s...in reply to ths 78.

Man, this one is getting pretty lively - I thought the .243/6mm controversy was something but this one on the .22s has got it beat hands down!! Maybe we could start one over this - which is better...

RE: 7mm-08; In reply to DM...

I like to use bullet cannelures because of one main reason. The foremost reason I use them and like to crimp on them for hunting purposes is for safety. To me, safety comes first and with caliber...

RE: 7mm-08

Very nice caliber - easy on the shoulder and very accurate! Only reason I sold the one I had was because you could not chamber the heavier 7mm bullets,(which I like) without contacting the rifle...

RE: Is it really important to break-in a new barrel?

I more or less found out about barrel breaking in by accident - not by anything I read but by paying attention to my shooting after purchasing my first .280 remington chambering. This rifle was a...

RE: Your opinion on using a Win. 30-30 for Whitetails

Have killed one deer with a Winchester 30-30. Shot it at approx. 40 to 50 yards away - iron sights - shot it through the neck. That deer went down without taking a step and didn't even twitch!

RE: Rugers 22 Hornet / 22L ?

Never owned a 22 hornet - but I really like the looks of the one that Ruger makes,(I believe it is the VHZ model) that has the 24 inch barrell. Would really like to have one of these!

RE: 6.5x55 Who owns one ?

I wanted to comment on this 6.5mm thing for one reason. I have never owned one in a modern rifle - have had one in a pristine Swedish Mauser and liked it alot but did not get to deer hunt with it. ...

RE: .243

You know, I have never really understood the .243/6mm controversy - when it comes to killing the so called 'average whitetail deer'. I've never shot a deer with one of the .24 caliber cartridges but...

RE: 308 winchester

Specifically speaking on this .308 issue - has anyone ever had one of the Ruger 77IIs in the sporter stainless version of the .308 - and if so what is your opinion of this caliber/rifle combination?

RE: : 30.06 IS KING..110 TO 220 GRAIN..ENOUGH SAID

I like to use 'other calibers' just to prove that everything does not revolve around the 30-06. Great chambering it may be, but it is not the most versatile. If you read your history you will find...

RE: .243 or 7mm-08?

I cannot agree with the above statements saying that there isn't much difference between the 30-06 and the 7mm-08. I have had both and the 7mm-08 is much easier on the shoulder and ears! This is...

The 300 mags.

Need some input on the short 300 mags. I would like to move up to a 300 magnum cartridge and am looking at the 300RSAUM or perhaps the 300WSM. Am not really interested in the long 300 mags such as...
