    450 Bushmaster

    Just wrapped up our first shotgun/straightwalled rifle season here in Iowa and I was able to drop 3 deer with my 350L. 2 shot at around 50 yards and 1 shot around 85. All 3 dropped where they stood so no trailing needed. Only needed 1 shot per deer and all 3 were complete pass throughs. I used...

    450 Bushmaster

    My fiancé is a smaller framed women who shoots the gen 1 Ruger American predator. She says the recoil is very manageable for her and the light rifle is easy to tote around the woods for her. She shot her first buck in the neck from 70 yards and it dropped in it's tracks. I shot a doe with my 350...

    450 Bushmaster

    Haven't heard much about the 400 Legend yet but I have 3 350s and will always recommend them. We have 2 Ruger Americans, both a gen 1 and a gen 2 in 16in barrels. Very happy with how the cartridge has performed for us here in Iowa's shotgun season.

    Hawke 350 Legend Scope

    Has anyone else had experience with the Hawke Endurance 350 legend scope? I bought one and the illuminated dot in the center is not very bright. Even in complete darkness(my basement with the lights off) I couldn't see the first 2 light settings. I contacted their customer service about this...

    I also have a 350L AR that has feeding problems. Thanks for the tips and hope to see some improvement.

    That sounds awesome. I can only imagine what a gun like that would bring today. Would love to get my hands on one someday.

    Sausage stuffer and grinder reccs.

    For meat grinders, I would go with MEAT! grinders. I have the 1 HP grinder and it eats deer meat like crazy. Extremely well built and good warranty. I have a LEM 5# sausage stuffer that works well for me. I'd like to upgrade to a slightly bigger stuffer someday but this works, you just have to...

    Combo guns

    I've looked at getting the Taurus Circuit Judge for that reason as well. Be perfect for iowa deer gun season to get the occasional squirrel.

    Combo guns

    I am not sure it was over a year ago now. He said it was a reloadable cartridge but the brass was hard to find so it might have to be fireformed.

    Why do straight wall seasons exist?

    I know a lot of people here in Iowa that were mad they can't use their 30-30 during shotgun season. My opinion(not that it's right) is that if they allow people to use 30 cals like 30-30 and 30-06, then someone will use a 300win mag. As stated above, there is a road every mile and houses/farms...

    Combo guns

    I ran across an old rifle at a gun show that was quite impressive. Side by side with the left barrel 20g and the right barrel was some very old German cartridge. The guy selling it said they don't make that ammo anymore. Beautiful scrollwork on the receiver but 1700 was too much for a gun I...

    Combo guns

    First post on here so let's see how it goes. Does anyone run comb guns like the old Savage/Stephen's Model 24 or the newer Model 42? I have both a 22lr/410 and a 30-30/20g with red dots mounted on both. What's your favorite combination for what game animals?
