Actually, anyone can file an FTC complaint about non-competitive practices and VISTA has definitely become the Google of the shooting world.

I picked up a Remington 600 in 243 yesterday in an auction for $390.00. The same gun sold in the 60's for $69.95.

I've killed 2 dozen Coues deer with rifle, blackpowder, compound bow and long bow. My longest shot with a rifle was about 100 yards, my shortest shot with a bow was 13 feet. That said, my rifle (6.5X300 WBY) is zeroed at 300 yards with Barnes 127 gr. My Burris FFP scope is good to a little...

Been there. Done that. When you have to portage gear and 900 pounds of moose a mile around a rapids, you'll learn the meaning of "pack lighter."

Growing up in Louisiana, we used to kill them by the wheelbarrow load. Also found out they were great for blowing stumps. Had an uncle that had a farm that showed me how to use them. If you have a stump to get rid of, start a sloping hole under the stump and get it about a foot and a half to...

That is a rare and magnificent trophy. Were you hunting an area with or without large brown bears?

This has nothing to do with the availability of the powder but wholesalers. Large retailers will routinely mark in stock product down to clearance prices whenever they pick up a new supplier, even if it is the same product. Sports and Rec used to do that almost monthly. They would have the...

Did the same thing with a 150 gr spitzer at 3600 fps out of a 8MM Rem Mag ... on more than one occasion.

If you want a monster elk, mule deer or Coues whitetail, the White Mountain Apache Tribe in Arizona is the best. Hunts are expensive but 400" class bulls are taken almost every year.

I put over a thousand full power rounds through my S&W 460 with a Burris 2-7 mounted on top. It was the only scope I tried that held up to the recoil. Two others suffered internal damage and one holographic sight actually lost the glass when it shattered from recoil.

I had a friend at Eielson back in the 70's that could clean the turkeys at 385 meters with his S&W Model 29. He was probably the best pistol shot I ever saw when it came to precision.

I took this Coues deer with a S&W 460 a few years ago. Unfortunately, my wrists and hands aged to much to shoot it anymore so I had to sell it and will try this year with a S&W 686 in .357 Mag or a Ruger in .327 Mag.

Sent you a reply. Brass is SPF.
