My current rifle collection consists of
Ruger 10/22
Marlin 17hmr
T/C Encore (2506) for now.
Savage 12FV single shot in 204

I would have to say right now my favorite gun is the 17 hmr. But come summer time it could become the 204. But that 17 is fun to shoot anytime.

So the reticle stays the same size in relation to target no matter how much the target is zoomed in or out? Thick cross-hairs cover up small targets as bad at 16x as they would at 4x? That does not sound like a good thing.

What does first focal plane reticle mean?

I read somewhere that said "there are 2 types of states in America. Those that have a pig problem and those who WILL have a problem." I have mixed feelings about pigs in the wild here in Virginia. We all know what they can do to the land, just think what one could do to a car at 65mph.

No, don't worry about it. I was kind of a spur of the moment question. It is not going to affect anything I'm doing

Already checked on brass. About $26 for 50 from midway. How can I tell what to look for if I decided to scope the barrel? I think it is a fairly old gun. Maybe as much as 30+ years. What do I want to look for from a shot out tube?

So maybe I should try and haggle him down to $950-$1000. It would make a great walking varminter. My current is a savage 12fv. HAH(heavy as heck)

I saw a used mod. 70 at a local shop today. Walnut stock and bull barrel. The wood had some marks but the metal was in good shape. It came with a VXII 6-18 w/OA. Price was $1199. First off, I don't know anything about the caliber. Second, I don't know if that price is about right or not. Any info. w...

I was on the Remington and Ruger websites tonight and noticed that the 220 and 22-250s were 1 in 14 and 223 was 1 in 9. Why is that? Is it so people can shoot the heavier target bullets from the 223?

A guy at work says he is having similar problems with a 25wssm. So should I recomend he buy a new shell holder? But I thought also that he may have a neck die improperly marked as a FL die. I will let him know.

What can I expect as far as accuracy goes? I will be shooting factory stuff, and it will be .223. I am in th .2s w/my savage 204, I know it won't be that good. But is 1/2 inch asking too much?

I have no experience with black guns but want one bad. The only thing I know is that it will be a 223 w/ 24" barrel. I plan on shooting it a long way.

I am going to be getting a new varmint gun soon and need help with scope. I would really like a LeupoldVX3 6.5-20x40 w/ varmint reticle. But the cheapest I have seen it is $839. I was thinking of maybe settleing for the 4.5-14x40, but I want a little higher magnification. Should I maye get the VXII ...

I am going to start working up a load for my 2506. I really like Hodgden and know they own IMR. Would I be better off just sticking with Hodgden?

I need to find a quality holster for my Ruger SR9c. Any advice?
