• Posted in thread: $200 for a scope on 07-20-2009 at 02:39 AM
  Take a look at opticzone.com or Bruno Shooters Supply. Some of the best prices on the web. For
  that price point, another good option is the Bushnell 3200 3-9X40. It is priced at $189 at
  Optic Zone. Go...

• Posted in thread: Info on my old 30-06 on 06-25-2009 at 01:34 PM
  Looks like a Modelo 1935 Argentine Mauser 98 made in Belgium and shipped to Argentina in
  1935-1936. Obviously, it was sporterized with a new stock. I would have to look at the markings
  to confirm it w...

  Not sure I would be admitting to stealing a Governmet firearm? Wouldn't be the first war this
  has happened but not too cool to admit it to a relatively public forum.

  Great optics! Great value! Should satisfy your shooting/hunting needs. I really like the
  Conquest series for general hunting, durability, and great German optics. You can buy better,
  but not for the p...

• Posted in thread: Questions for elk, and moose hunters? on 05-18-2009 at 08:45 PM
  I don't have near the experience with Elk that the gentleman who has taken 33. Personally, I
  would not engage an Elk with a 308 past 200-250 yds. I just don't feel comfortable, even with a
  168 gr bull...

• Posted in thread: Need some help with a 22 on 05-09-2009 at 09:06 PM
  A couple other relatively inexpensive options are the Bushnell Banner and the Nikon Prostaff. I
  have 3X9X40s on a couple of my 22s.

• Posted in thread: 300 weatherby elk rifle on 04-26-2009 at 01:03 PM
  I have hunted for over 50 years and have never been called a sissy for hunting with a muzzle
  brake. My wife might agree with moron for some of the chances I have taken in pursuit or bear
  and boar. At ...

• Posted in thread: Weatherby Mark V in my future? on 04-23-2009 at 03:09 PM
  I reread the other posts and believe you are getting good advice regardless which way you go. I
  own two of the Vanguards in 25-06, and 270. They both shot sub-MOA out of the box. My theory is
  that the...

• Posted in thread: Weatherby Mark V in my future? on 04-23-2009 at 02:50 PM
  I own the Mark V 7 MM Weatherby Mag with a muzzle brake. The recoil is stout, but manageable.
  Definitely, not a bench gun unless you are using a sled or a thick recoil pad. It will take out
  anything i...

• Posted in thread: .270 or 30-06 on 04-20-2009 at 07:38 PM
  A really good starter rifle would be a Marlin XL7 in 30-06. They sell for less than $300. Would
  leave you $200 for a scope. The Bushnell Elite 3200s can be bought for under $200. Would give
  you an exc...
