• Posted in thread: Browning vs Benelli on 04/25/2012 at 3:36PM
  I will freely admit to being unreasonably prejudiced, but I would never pay money for a Benelli. Or own
  another one. Or accept one as a gift. Or remain in the same room as one. If your choice is Brown...

• Posted in thread: 10killed, 39wounded on 03/20/2012 at 6:11PM
  Maybe we need to look at this a new way. What if we make it legal for gangbangers to kill other
  gangbangers? So if a Crip shoots a 6 year old girl, he goes to the chair. If a Crip shoots a Blood, he g...

  Rifled chokes help, but you may need to try different slug loads to find the one that works best.

  For plains game in Africa, you could use either a 7mm or .338 magnum. Your PH will probably recommend
  premium bullets in heavier weights. 160 gr in the 7mm or 250 gr in the .338. The African PH's I ta...

• Posted in thread: Is it safe to reload target-grade shotgun hulls? on 03/08/2012 at 3:49PM
  I have always found "target" shotshell hulls to be the BEST for reloading. I think they are more uniform

  I've never had a bad experience with a Remington 11-87 or an 1100, but I haven't handled one made less

• Posted in thread: Looking for some fun shooters on 03/01/2012 at 6:53AM

  Other potentially fun guns would be:SKSAKLever action .357/.38, .44, .45Mini 14/Mini 30If money is...

  What do you consider "primitive"? I'm all for primitive hunting and special seasons for such. However, as
  long as there is breath in my lungs and blood in my veins, I will not concede that an in-line ...

  Wow, don't get me started. Ok here's my list. I know alot of my opinions will run contrary to that of the
  mainstream gun loving community, but I don't care. I like what I like and don't like what I do...
