Trad looking but functional hunting sights

I have an Austin & Halleck Mountain Rifle that I love, but my aging eyes just don't agree with the buckhorn and silver blade sights anymore. Can you guy's make a recommendation for a traditional...

RE: Got the new rifle

Congrats Steve! I'm glad it was a good find for you. That stock just jumped out at me when I walked into the shop. If it wasn't a lefty I would have given it a closer look but I'm glad you got it and...

RE: 7mm-08

Bigpapa, A 160 grain TSX will shoot clean through a Black Bear or a big rooter. It's SD is higher than the 270 gr .375 TSX. The 7-08 with the proper bullet can take anything in N.A. (just like the...

RE: first longbow??

Depending upon your draw length, the Grizzly may just be too short for you - i've seen 58" bows stack after 28" of draw or less. I have three recurves and they are all silky smooth but my draw is 27"...

RE: 444 shooters

Don't forget about the 280gr A-Frame and the 250 gr NP, I think I saw someone with a stout 300 grainer also but can't remember. I used one a few times that belonged to a buddy of mine - awesome...

RE: Barrel Twist Rate question

From everything I have read, for the .25 bore cartridges the 1 in 10 is recommended for bullets up to 100gr and a 1 in 9 for anything heavier. There are several variables that come into play with...

RE: 338 Federal

I think they have run the gammut with the 338's now with the Fed at the low end, the 338-06 another 100fps up, then the 338WM another 100fps up, then the 340WM another 100 up then the UM and Lapua...

RE: Breachplug Cleaning and Sights

I just checked the site 777 and they don't have the sights listed in their current inventory so it may be too late for those. The price they have listed for their remaining Mtn Rifles is awesome...

RE: Ruger 77 Build / Technical Info

I have an affinity for the Mauser type actions so I like the Ruger. Most of the accuracy concerns are usually a result of their triggers and not from the action. There are plenty of good barrels,...

RE: Interesting

I heard about this and from what I have read it's both good and bad! Basically my understanding is that now FN has the power to manufacture Winchester rifles somewhere else besides Connecticut. Most...

RE: Browning BLR

The only advantage I see with the WSM is it's flatter shooting and hits harder at long range. If all of your shots are under 300 or so yards then either will do. You do have to pay more attention to...

RE: 7X57 rifles

I know what you mean about "Budget Conscious" trust me! I just bought a Kimber 84M Classic Select Grade in 7mm-08 and mounted a Burris Euro Diamond scope on it. It took almost 18 mos to save the...

RE: What would you do!

There's no way I would trade a Classic 70 with Controlled Round Feed for a Remy! I own a Classic Stainless Featherweight in 270 win and it is flawless in every way! If you don't like the 7mag then...

RE: Weatherby 270 Wby ulta lightweight

If you just like the Weatherby, get the Vanguard SUB MOA in 270WSM. Similar ballistics, same basic stock design, and less than 1/2 the price with a less than 1" guarentee at 100 yards - but it's...

RE: 7X57 rifles

Hey IPSC, have you priced a Remington MTN rifle or A-Bolt or Kimber or stainless Tikka or Sako lately! You're not going to get a nice one of those for $700 with a really good scope these days unless...

RE: 7X57 rifles

Here's the ticket! Pick up a Yugo 98 mauser (about $125 for one in really good shape) and send it to E.R.Shaw. They'll do all the action work and rebarrel it, install a Timney trigger and a new...

RE: 7X57 rifles

Ruger still makes the No.1 rifles in 7x57. I've been thinking about getting a light sporter in this caliber myself. I love my 7mm-08 but really like the old rounds as well. I have a couple of old...
