      What was or is your most accurate .22cal hunting rifle:

      Best ever for me has been my Remington 541t. Close second is my Weatherby MKXXIi bolt.

      Judge rules against the DNR on canned hunts

      Hello Joe, Lt. Col. Phil Ohmit was a very good friend of mine, and it was Phil who coached me on the legal points as I was researching the topic during that Captive Cervid Council period a few years ago. Unfortunately we lost Phil last year, but I will get the code for you. Thanks for the...

      Judge rules against the DNR on canned hunts

      Fargo - it is already against the law, always has been. It is not something made up by a DNR Czar. When DNR tried to enforce the law the lawsuit was filed against DNR by this guy. The judge filed a temporary injunction, then ruled against DNR saying that they had no standing to stop him...

      Judge rules against the DNR on canned hunts

      Folks I have been studying this issue for almost 10 years. Back in 2006 I was asked to be on a committee sponsored by the legislature and IDNR. As such I spent over a year on my own time and expense listening to experts on both sides of the debate. I started out thinking that it was a...

      STARTING to consider long gun. S&W M&P 15 a good choice for an AR?

      I have had my M&P for several years with no problems. I see no reason that it wouldn't serve your stated purpose extremely well. Good luck and ENJOY!

      What is it about a Ruger Blackhawk?

      Ruger + Single Action + Blackhawk = Extreme Fun. You will not regret it, except as others say I bet you can't have just one! :)

      CZ 75

      I also had a 75B that I let someone talk me out of - regretted it ever since. Now I have a Tactical and it is one of my favorite handguns. It will never leave.

      What should I look for next for my Ruger collection?

      Definitely the Redhawk. But then you need to show some nostalgia and go for a nice Blackhawk or Super Balckhawk. Single actions are a blast too.

      Great Ammo Shortage of 2013 Ending Soon?

      I haven't found .22LR in Columbus for months. Same people show up every morning to buy it as hoarders is what store people tell me. Selfishness.

      Good caliber for black bear hunting?

      If you put the bullet (or arrow) where it belongs it really doesn't take a large calibre to down the black bear. Hit him quarter away angle behind the front leg ( I use archery equipment) and aim for opposite front leg. I have taken 5 bear and they don't go far. But hit them wrong and they go...

      Recommend my first 'long gun'.

      I used to own a hunting / fishing store here in Columbus, and had this question many times from people new to shooting. My answer then and now, is a Ruger 10/22. Inexpensive, dependabe, and fun to shoot. One of the most accurate plinkers and very easy to shoot. Light, well balanced, points...

      How many shotguns?

      If I could only own one shotgun it would be a Remington 870 in 12 gauge. No doubt the most versatile and dependable shotgun I have ever dealt with. And you can add extra barrels as you determine need. Second choice would be a Mossburg 500. Less money and not quite as nice looking but very...

      Guns that mean the most to you

      My grandpa's 870. He kept it by his bedside for so long that the pattern from the chair it rested against is in the barrel. I have shot several deer with it and a few turkey. I still take it hunting so that he can hunt with me, even though he has been gone for 20 years.

      Anyone switching up Broadheads this year?

      I have shot Razorcaps frm NAP for several years, but now they have been discontinued apparently. Too bad, I loved this head. I see that NAP is making a similar head which screws into the tip rather than base, so I think I will try them.

      Reloading for Garand?

      I am new to shooting and owning Garands. I am getting mixed messages about how / should I reload for this gun. Has anyone out there any information to help me along? Thanks in advance.

      Thanks all. DNurk- I live in Columbus, where would you be located? I wouldn't mind buying you lunch or a cold drink in exchange for picking your brain... I just bought a 1954 H&R, looks nice but I know nothing...
