    Great day on Saturday

    We (my part time Officer Justin, his 3 kids, my daughter, grand daughter and I) took 56 bottles filed with water along with us to the Range. Most were either 2 Liter or 20 Oz Pop Bottles. We started the two young girls (Justin's daughter Avery - 10, and my grand daughter Sterling - 12) out at...

    .30-30 & .30-30 AI ?

    I have shot a few Whitetails with the .30-30 AI from a Super 14 Contender Handgun. The first barrel I had really preferred H-4198 with 125gr. Nosler Ballistic Tips. I took several Whitetails with that load and it preformed flawlessly. The closest being roughly 200 yards and the farthest 286...

    Can't get the 60 grain partition to shoot

    A few years back I tried and tried and tried to get 60gr. Nosler Partitions to shoot out of a 1 in 9" Twist AR. After I burnt up 3 boxes of bullets with several different powders from Benchmark through Varget I phoned Nosler. I was told that due to the Partition design and the fact that the rear...

    Glock 30 review and custom beavertail

    My only experience with an aftermarket barrel for a Glock was with a Storm Lake 9mm Conversion Barrel for a Glock Model 22 and it shot quite well. I was actually thinking if I buy an aftermarket barrel for my Glock Model 30 SF it would be a KKM. Larry

    Glock 30 review and custom beavertail

    Believe it or not but Advantage Arms recommends either CCI Mini Mags (40gr. Solid only), Remington Golden Bullets (including the BULK Hollow Points) or CCI Blazers. Larry

    Glock 30 review and custom beavertail

    Advantage Arms lists right in the instructions with the kit what ammo is recommended and what ammo isn't recommended. A buddy has one and had nothing but trouble with it until I had him read the ammo recommendations and when he switched to one of the recommended ammo he didn't have any more...

    Glock 30 review and custom beavertail

    Very nicely done. I too carry a Glock Model 30 for an Off Duty / CCW Handgun although mine is a Model 30 SF. I have had mine for about 5 months now and am totally pleased with it. I too much prefer the .45 ACP and my Model 30 SF replaced a Glock Model 26 9mm that I used to use for an Off Duty...

    These people are losing their minds!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I know, I know, they forgot the period between the 12 and the 99. Heck I'd buy it for $12.99. Larry PS But I would replace the stock before I ever showed it to anyone or shot it which is exactly what I did with the last Boat Paddle Ruger 77 I had. Now that I think about it for a while I might...

    243 Win 85gr TSX

    I have taken a half dozen or so Whitetails with the 95gr. Nosler Ballistic Tip (actually a load with H-4350 I got from a forum member her several years ago). All have been one shot kills at ranges from almost 200 yards out to darn close to a quarter mile. I never have recovered a single 95gr...

    advice for a newbie at using the .223

    In my AR's I settled on 55gr. Nosler Ballistic Tips loaded with H-4895. I have used this load in close to a dozen different AR's with 1 in 9" Twist Barrels and it has been very consistant in all of them. The 20" Bull Barrels have produced 100 yard groups in the .5's. None of the Coyotes I have...

    Rem 788 makeover

    Very nice 788's guys. The first ever Rifle I bought myself was a Remington Model 788 in 6mm Remington. I bought the rifle as a package deal that included a cheap 4x scope (Tasco if I remember right), scope mounts and 3 boxes of ammo for like $125.00. That was the only centerfire rifle I had for...

    AR-15 rifle to carbine conversion

    You would have to talk to someone with more knowledge than me but there is a difference between a Rifle Length Gas System and a Carbine Length Gas System in how much gas is dumped into the action to cycle the gun. From what I know the gas port size in a Carbine Barrel is different from the gas...

    .308 Powder help needed????

    A couple weeks ago I loaded up a bunch of 165gr. Nosler Ballistic Tips with Varget for my wife's Semi Custom 18 1/2" Remington Model 700 SPS Stainless .38. The end result was a 9 shot group at 100 yards with all 9 holes inside of a 1" square. Muzzle velocity from the 18 1/2" Remington was 2606...

    Both grandkids score in the youth season

    Thanks for the kind words guys. Truth be told Grandpa was way more excited than they were. My 12 year old (soon to be 13 right after Christmas) Granddaughter shot her first two deer ever last season with two shots. She has shot Rimfire Bench Rest at our Indoor Shooting Range since she was 10...
