    What is the the most flat shooting cartridge yall can think of?

    Factory IMO I would give it to the 50 grain .22-250 Hornady at 4000 fps. Hardly any adjustment from 200 - 250 - 300 yards. Goes transonic around 730 yards.

    Whats the worse rifle or gun you ever bought ? I hsve several tied

    While not into brand-bashing I do give credit to great products. That said, being a .45-70 fan I once bought a new lever-action, (NOT a Marlin or Winchester), that just sucked. To start with, the feed tube was for a .30-30. Loading single, it printed a perfect question mark (?) everytime that...

    Favorite 22lr Bulk Ammo?

    I use bulk Federal blue box in 40 grain round nose. (Made repeated shots in the pouring rain yesterday to 200 yards with it & 40 grain RN Golden Bullets) I use bulk Federal CB Quiet in 40 grain RN for up-close stuff around the house. Bigger bores & shotguns get 70-80% of my attention but .22's...

    Chamber out of round?

    I HAVE seen chambers out of round but it was on .22 single-shot break-actions, (where the closing of the loaded action always pushed the rounds upward on the chamber - thus the visible egg shape). How your chamber got out of round who knows? JMO

    Savage/stevens 555 28ga forcing cone damage

    Got one of the same. Love it but never fed it anything but standard lead. Me? I wouldn't be afraid of it but that's just me.

    What is the most hated deer rifle you owned ?

    I enjoyed your post. Thank you. It gleaned more honesty than bias. IMO it also demostrated that guns with the most kick are the ones least likely to get a good zero. (Hmmm🤔) I DO like honest replies. What I don't like is when someone replies with their own personal opinion (which we're all...

    Prairie Dog Rifle Question…

    Your assumptions sound correct to me. IMO: The ideal calibers for this sport are all of my favorites - the barrel burners. Lots of data on that, here, including many innovative ways to cool barrels. The short answer seems to be: If you want to enjoy dogs & still extend barrel life - take...

    Alec Baldwin charged with Involuntary Manslaughter

    Your words are my words EXACTLY! I am NOT one of his fans but IMO: The armorer has the first AND last word on everything weapons-related. Also My Opinion: They are, of course, going after his money moreso than him. I totally agree with you, spot-on.

    Load development for ruger American 22-250

    I've been shooting for 57 years now & I take great pride in the accuracy of my shots. Every method of rifle support that I ever used offers some "give" to the weapon's recoil. My hat is off to you sir. Your observation impresses me. No matter the amount of recoil - what you say makes perfect...
