      Savage Model 11 Bolt Action

      Ok, I'll shoot it a while and see how it does. I've read the plastic stock is a little flimsy on the end but I'll give it a shot first. It's suppose to be pillar bedded and free floated from the factory so we shall see. Thanks for the responses.

      Trade-In Expectations

      I'd take to the Indy Show on the weekend of the 18th. If it's priced fairly it will sell.

      Remington 223 55gr UMC

      Like others have said. It's the going price at the moment, it shoots well for general shooting or plinking, and you can collect the brass for reloading down the road if the craziness continues. You could backorder some of the cheap $7-8 a box ammo on-line, but I bet they upcharge you as the...

      Savage Model 11 Bolt Action

      I've never owned a Savage but keep reading great reviews on how great they shoot right out of the box, so I ordered a Savage Model 11 Trophy Hunter Xp in .223 from Buds. It comes with the standard black resin stock and Nikon 3-9x-40 scope. What do you guys think, shoot it like it, is or buy a...

      Should I buy it? 1911

      I'd die for a deal like that on a Colt Model 70, money in the bank!

      Smallest Handgun you carry

      45ACP, but considering a S&W 642 38Spl. because of their size/weight.

      best 22 auto for plinking

      I like: Low Cost Ruger 22's most models Ruger 22/45 (45ACP Grip angle, feels so good!) Browing Buckmark (good triggers out of the box, shot my first Master round in Bullseye competition with one, competitiors couldn't believe it). High Cost S&W Model 41 Older High Standard Victors

      Why does everyone love 1911s so much?

      ...just because 1. They get the job done! 2. Great knockdown power. 3. They are darn sexy! 4. They fit your hand so well, to me nothing else compares. 5. Mods are fun and most fairly easy to do yourself. 6. Everyone carries parts. 7. Ammo is easy to find. 8. A well tuned 45 is about as good as...

      Indy 1500 deals

      Good info., if I go I'll be looking for hand guns and will look to stay away from the AR section. Dang, lately even revolvers have seemed to take a pretty good hike in pricing.

      Average cost of .223 at the show? (POLL)

      I'm betting $0.50 to .75 for 20 rounds at the low end. Surplus seems to going for about 0.50 in bulk, the last time I bulk ordered it cost $0.10-0.19 per round, yes I'm showing my age!

      Busiest 1500 Ever?

      I was thinking about making the trip to the 1500, but after trying to go to the Sharonville, OH show in Dec. (looking for ammo) the line was a 100yds. long outside the main entrance. I bet it took an hour just to get in. Indy is probably going to be worse! I think I'll wait it out and maybe...

      Hello from SE IN.

      Hi all, new to the forum but have been an avid shooter for years. Shot Bulleye for 10 yrs. (NRA Expert) and lately have gotten back into Bolt actions and T/C Contenders, something about talking my time loading one round at a time and racking the bolt makes me smile.
