      Suppressing an M1A Scout?

      So, I've got an M1A scout and I'd love to put a can on it. So far, I've already swapped out the Smith thread adapter, and also the smith socom gas plug. Once I was done, I put a direct thread 308 can on and was blasted with gas when I fired it. I thought maybe I shouldn't have swapped the gas...

      2024 Bear Season

      I've only eaten bear one time. It was a black bear harvested in Ontario by a p.o.s. hunter who only wanted the hide and had every intention of wasting the meat. Once word got around camp what he planned on doing he got a heavy dose of the stink eye, and maybe a few lectures on the ethics of...

      What's your favorite smooth bore 12ga slug?

      I've got a 590A1 and may be taking it on a hunting trip. I'm curious what slugs people like and get good accuracy with out of a 12ga smooth bore shotgun. I'm not expecting long range shots with this, but if there's something more inherently accurate than I'm all for it.

      The Prepper Deals Thread

      Problem with MRE types of meals is you don't realize how fast that 10 years is going to go.

      Bore Polishing Ammo?

      I recently listened to a podcast and they were joking about those kinds of kits from years ago and how it would do more damage than good. It wasn't the main topic, but more of a side offhand joke. Bottom line, if that worked really well you'd hear a lot more about it in the PRS / Benchrest / F...

      WTS/WTT: Tikka T3X KRG Bravo Chassis loaded with accessories

      I bought this used on INGO, see original thread here: https://www.indianagunowners.com/threads/krg-bravo-tikka-t3-short-action.527815/ Since then I've added an XL Spigot. I ended up not really caring for the AICS feeding chassis and went to stock that uses the factory Tikka 10rd mags. I...

      WTS/WTT: Eberlestock Gunslinger II with pouches

      I've got a barely used Eberlestock Gunslinger II with; two hipbelt pouches, one 2 liter pouch, one shooting rest mounted to the pack. I’d be pushing $700 if I bought all this new today. I’d sell it for $400 with my desire to drive from Fort Wayne being directly related to the price. I bought...

      Talk me into a 45-70 single shot.....

      So... I just stumbled across this: Cimarron "Rifle from Down Under". https://www.cimarron-firearms.com/products/hollywood-guns/rifle-from-down-under-1.html It's got me thinking again. Doesn't come with the correct rear tang sight, but that can be added. Couple other subtle differences...

      First Precision Rifle

      At the risk of getting back on topic I'll also say that if the 300 PRC would have been around when I bought my 338Lapua I probably would have leaned towards the 300 PRC. Hornady has made some incredible design improvements with their "PRC" series calibers to the point where the rifle...

      First Precision Rifle

      I kinda giggled when I read this because my hunting rifle is a Win 70 featherweight in 30-06 that's been bedded and looks lights out. I get being bothered by the casual approach to taking an animals life. When I saw the father and son hunters in Wisconsin cutting tags off their new gear the...

      Sig P226 or Beretta M9A4 or CZ shadow 2?

      First off, all three are fine choices. I've owned a handful of berettas 92fs, M9, and currently an M9a3. I bought the M9A3 because we had Beretta's in the Army. I wanted the M9a3 to run it with a can. My M9a3 runs flawlessly when suppressed out of every pistol I've ever put a can on. I had...

      First Precision Rifle

      Not trying to be offensive here, but I think you've got the concept of "performance" and actual "cost" intertwined and it's not always that way. For example, I shoot deer in my backyard with my custom competition rifle. It's a known distance range out to 300 yards. I can make the same shot at...

      First Precision Rifle

      Much to my shock, he spent $1000 and was on target at 1,000 yards. As much as I want to turn my nose up at it as well, he was hitting what he was aiming at at over a half mile. We live in great times to buy a great rifle that shoots very well for very little money. A ruger action might feel...

      First Precision Rifle

      He had around $1000 in the rifle/scope/bipod. The rifle itself was around $500 on sale at Rural King. I'd agree the rifle itself isn't a $1000 gun, but the point I was doing a poor job of making was that he had $1,000 in the whole package.
