    Winchester SX 3 ?

    What is "a 10 shot extension tube?" Is that part of the stock shotgun that you are calling unreliable? Pretty much everywhere I've hunted even 5 shots is illegal.

    Wifes new 6.5 Creedmore mule deer rifle ammo choice?

    I have also settled on the factory 140gr Hornady ELDM. Super accurate, great performance on game and seems to be just about the perfect size bullet to use in a 6.5 Creedmoor to take great advantage of both long-range ballistics and taking the guesswork out of shorter-range work.

    Favorite Lead Free 6.5CM round in your Tikka T3x lite?

    You didn't say what you're hunting and at what ranges. If you're hunting deer at ranges out to 400 yards or so, I'd give the Winchester Copper Impact 125gr loads a try. They have been quite accurate for me and knocked the crap out of everything I've hit with one. I admit this is limited...

    Wifes new 6.5 Creedmore mule deer rifle ammo choice?

    I would pick up a half dozen boxes of various ammo with different bullet weights, as sometimes rifles will prefer lighter or heavier bullets. I'd start with 120gr Nosler Ballistic Tips ... as fine of a deer bullet as has ever been made. Then go up to 125gr Winchester Deer Season XP. Awesome...

    6mm prc

    I've often thought that the next logical extension of the 6.8 Western case would be a 6mm version. It would certainly be similar to this.

    Bullet for whitetail deer from 6mm Creedmoor

    No brainer ... 108 ELD-M all day everyday with that twist. Near or far.

    Bullet for whitetail deer from 6mm Creedmoor

    I'd look at the 108 ELD-M from a 6 Creed. If you want to go lighter the 95 NBT is a lights-out bullet in 6mm rifles!

    9mm Bear defense pistol ammo?

    There are grizzlies roaming freely all through Idaho, with a fairly healthy population in the Panhandle and the Selkirks. North Cascades National Park in NW Washington also has quite a few. They have been spotted as far south and East as I-90 near Cle Elum.

    9mm Bear defense pistol ammo?

    Thanks. I haven't been able to find the aluminum mag releases from Shield ..... only steel. Do you happen to have a link? I am seriously thinking about a G48 MOS for this use.

    7mm SAW Questions

    Energy doesn't matter. Impact velocity and bullet construction do. The longer, sleeker bullets fired from the 7mm SAW will have a larger window of effective range than a standard 7mm-08.

    The do it all self-defense pistol

    Tough question! My all-time favorite handgun is the G17 Gen 4. I am convinced that Glock somehow used a model of my hand when they were developing the finger grooves for that model. It really is a perfect fit, although way too large for most carry duties I'd require. Helluva nightstand pistol...
