    I'm thinking about getting a dog.

    Re: I\'m thinking about getting a dog. 4ked Horn, I am not sure how knowledgeable you are with raising a puppy, but I will recommend www.leerburg.com as a good source of information. The Leerburg Kennels in Wisconsin is a working blood line German Shepherd Dog breeder, but the site has some...

    300 rum

    How many rounds can you put through your 300 RUM before you start flinching or hurting too bad to shoot? Do you use a muzzle brake? Knappy

    Trueing the action?

    Can this process be performed on a Savage? I have a 110 FP and I am sure the gun shoots better than I do, but if I wanted a truely accurate "tack driver", would this process help. I was told by a gunsmith that there is not a lot you can do to accurize a Savage. It is either accurate or not...

    .300 RUM muzzle break???

    I was told by a gunsmith this weekend that he can put a muzzle brake on a .300 RUM and make it feel like a .25-06 when you shoot it. This seems kind of hard to believe, but I am no expert. I have never shot the RUM, so I have no comprehension on how much recoil it actually has. I hear it is a...

    Whats the best bang for the buck?

    Look at Savage Arms. Great, accurate guns at a good price. I have a 110FP in .25-06 with the Accu Trigger and I love it. Knappy

    Best .25 cal. long range bullet

    What would be the best .25 caliber bullet to shoot for longe range on predators/whitetail deer? What would be the max range of some of these bullets through my .25-06? I read a post a little while ago that Berger was coming out with a long range .25 bullet, but I haven't seen any reports...

    Ballistics Programs (Web based & Downloadable)

    I clicked onto the "The Thing", the middle link in the first post and there was already some info put in on the 300 Mag. I shoot a 25-06, so do I just go in and put in my known data and does it calculate everything for you automatically?

    Painting Stainless BBL's?

    Re: Painting Stainless BBL\'s? C:\Documents and Settings\Curtis\My Documents\My Pictures\Gun-N-Stuff I don't think it worked, but I tried adding a picture of the gun I painted this year. I used the flat camo paint that you can buy at Wal-Mart. It turned out real well, but I don't have a...

    Recoil question

    I have looked around but haven't yet found anything about this subject, so I appologize if the question is already out there. How is the recoil of the .300 RUM compared to a .338 Win Mag? I sounds like both calibers are good a long range, but which one has less felt recoil? And do the Sims...

    Speedco Shooting game

    While reading about the game it said you can enter your load data and play around with different variables with different calibers. But if it is not challenging or you don't learn any long range "dialing in" stuff for elevation or wind, I don't think I will buy it. Thanks for the input.

    Boone & crocket

    Thanks Aussie, I appriciate the advice. I will check the accuracy of my scope like you suggested. So my Tasco, more than likely, will not be a good choice for long range shooting? I need to start saving for a better scope I guess.
