    T/c prohunter............12ga or 20ga?

    you are correct that there are more slug options for the 12. i have a 12 gauge barrel on my tc. it is absolutly brutal to shoot with slugs, worse than my 500 A-square. i also got a 20 gauge slug barrel for my son's tc. it isn't bad to shoot and with the remington green tipped slugs it is a true...

    870 shooting bad please help

    well thats what i did. i got a fully rifled barrel in 20 gauge for my encore. with the remington slugs it is accurate but even better it is consistant as to point of aim. i got rid of the H&R/NEF super slugger after i shot the barrel.

    Rem.1100 scope mount

    as it has been alluded to, of all of the saddle mounts i have put on for clients none have worked that great. if the screws are tightened so the mount wont move then it usually binds up the trigger group.

    Best pump gun???

    well for sheer brute workhorse ability after 33 years training cops i have to say the remington 870 is hard to beat. i've had winchester mod. 12"s, 97"s, browning bps"s, Remington 870"s but my all time favorite is an old model ithaca 37 which is the only one i still have.

    Woods for Stocks

    walnut is used because it fullfills the most common properties needed for a stock. it is strong for its weight, pleasing to the eye, easy to work, and it used to be readily available and inexpensive. walnut is never a bad choice but maple, cherry, birch,have been somewhat popular at a time.

    who works on a tc encore

    i do not know a way that you can do the rechamber. when a barrel is chambered for the ai cartridges it normally has to be set back. the headspace is set so that the standard cartridge go-gauge becomes the ackley no-go gauge. the standard cartridge needs a crush fit in the ackley chamber to...

    .17 HMR or .22 Mag ?

    i rebarreled a martini with a heavy shilen barrel. with federal #757 load it shoots mid 4's to high 6's consistantly at 100 yards. i got rid of my hmr as the heavier 22 bullets kill better. truthfully though it was a lot of money for a little gain.
