    Disposing of old ammo

    I just recently found a couple of very old boxes of ammo tucked away, probably from my grandfather. Alot of the cases have corrosion showing on them, so definately not safe to shoot. What is the best and safest way to dispose of them?

    Age of Marlin 30/30

    I am hoping someone that is smarter than me can point me in the right direction. I have my grandfathers 30/30 and am trying to find the age of it. It has a 4 digit serial # starting with the letter D. I found some info, one place (when I entered the serial number) said it was made prior to...

    Remington 7600 pump

    Does anyone have a Remington 7600 pump rifle? I like unique guns, and have a BLR but am considering a pump just for something different. I know Remington had some issues, but are they back to where they used to be? I would love to hear of any good or bad opinions on this gun, thank you. Some of...

    Casper,Wyoming food

    Well, I just found out that my favorite bar and place to eat in Casper (the Wonder Bar) is closing on the day I am arriving for a week of antelope hunting :mad:. Does anyone have any recommendations for good places where the locals like to eat (not chain restaurants)?

    Drilling for scope

    I previously have inherited my grandfathers 30/30,which currently has open sights. I have been told not to have it drilled for a scope as it may reduce the value of the gun. To me it is more valuable if i can hunt with it instead of having it sit in the safe and not be used. With that being...

    Posts for sling on BLR

    I just picked up a new Browning BLR 81 in 7mm08, and it does not have factory posts installed for a sling and swivels. What limited information I can find online is that people recommend taking it to a gunsmith to have them installed. I installed one on my Winchester in the early 80's and have...

    Need advice on accuracy

    I am currently reloading for my Tikka in 7mm08 and my Winchester model 70 .270. I have tried multiple powders and charges, and using accubonds for both. I bench shoot from a lead sled with the barrel strapped to the rest. The best group I can get from either is about 1.5 inches at 100 yards. My...

    Sitka gear

    I have been considering pulling the trigger on a Sitka jacket but know nothing about them. I know they are now a sponsor on this site, but I also know Randy used to wear them before thay became a sponsor (which means to me that it is good stuff.) My question is, for the average hunter is it...

    Carbon tv question

    I may just be a little slow, but I cannot figure out how to watch On Your Own Adventures on Carbon TV. I signed on with a password, picked an episode,clicked watch video, and all I can get is the Federal Premium commercial, it never plays the actual show. Any advice? I am trying this on my cell...

    Bad idea?

    I have always thought it would be cool to get my stock camo dipped. I have a Tikka w/ synthetic stock and right now my handloads shoot just at 1 inch at 100 yards. Would it be a mistake to have the stock taken off for dipping purposes or will the gun still shoot as accurately after putting it...

    Stupid reloading question

    I am working up a load for my Tikka 7mm08, and have a dumb question. The maximum load in the Nosler manual for the 140 gr accubond is 46 grains of IMR 4350. I started at 44 grains, worked my way up in 1/2 grain increments and ended up at 47 grains (which is over maximum stated.) I have always...

    .444 Marlin

    Has anyone used the leverevolution ammo in .444 for elk? I shoot about 1 inch groups at 200 yards w/ a 4x scope, just not sure if this round is sturdy enough for elk.

    Resizing brass

    I have a 7mm08 that I would like to reload for, however I cannot find any brass for it. I can get .243 brass, is it possible (and safe) to resize .243 to 7mm08? Would I just run it through the full size 7mm08 dies? Any help is greatly appreciated.

    Reloading components

    Due to moving/rising cost/laziness and shooting my supply of factory ammo I have not reloaded in probably 10 years, but have quite a bit of powder and primers left. They have been in a dry location (gun safe). Would it still be ok to use them, or should I look at all new stuff? I would like to...

    Another "unbiased" study

    Gun Laws = Fewer Deaths, 50-State Study Says Posted: Mar 06, 2013 3:45 PM PST Updated: Mar 06, 2013 3:45 PM PST CHICAGO (AP) - A 50-state study says those with the most gun laws have the fewest gun-related deaths. The research doesn't prove that the number of laws makes a difference. And...

    Kaycee, Wyoming

    Anyone ever stayed at the Cassidy Inn in Kaycee? Going down in October for antelope, rooms are getting hard to get so I reserved a room sight unseen. Price is good so hopefully it will be all right!

    If you could only have one....

    type of bullet for all of your rifles, what would it be? Lets say you have a 7mm08 or 243, a 270 and a 300 or 338. If you could only choose one type of bullet (core lokt, nosler, barnes etc) what would it be? Lets ignore cost and bullet weight since it would be different for all calibers, just...

    Tikka T3

    Does anyone own this rifle? Possibly looking into a new one, reviews are good but it is always good to hear first hand experiences. Thanks for any information or advice! Thinking about a 7mm08.

    Wyoming Antelope

    Hopefully this will be my first time to hunt antelope DIY in Wyoming, and I have a stupid question. Has anyone hunted antelope there and not filled their tag? It just seems everyone posts they got this tag and that tag and 4 doe tags and everyone in their party filled all their tags. Just...
