Yes I am re-introducing myself. been hunting and shooting all my life. My idea of a good hunter is not how far can I shoot it but how close can I get before shooting. But, I’m wanting to stretch out and hit targets out there a ways. Currently building a long range underhammer.44cal percussion...

Thanks for the add. From Missouri.

Take it to a competent gunsmith. Let them determine if the current barrel can be salvaged. If not, let them rebarrel. When you get it rebarreled, don't forget to take out the bore sight. :D

Many of you might not believe how many deer have been killed here in the Ozarks with 22lr. That up to the 22 hornet has been the poachers gun of choice for as long as I can remember. I don't like poachers. :( Anyway, I am one of the ones who will tell you it is all about shot placement...

Hey all, I have a problem. A little history is in order. I have 3 fused vertebrates in my neck and a plate and 4 screws. I want to get into LRH but me and recoil don't get along to well anymore. So, what calibers should I be looking at? 30-06 makes me flinch anymore....I know.:rolleyes: I...

Looking forward to being here. Looking to make myself a better shot...getting harder the older I get and the more age keeps creeping in. Still a young pup by many standards but it ain't the years but the miles. I am a reloader, avid shooter even though I don't get much time to shoot with my...
