    The Rokslide 95 (Ruger American 😁)

    Wish I had seen this a week and a half sooner. 2 weeks ago our new Rokslide 95 "twins" arrived (Ruger American Gen 2 Predator 6mm ARC), 1 for Kathy (my wife) and 1 for myself. I took my time mounting scopes, trying to do it the best I could. Using Acetone, I degreased the action, the...

    The Rokslide 95 (Ruger American 😁)

    Indiana requires a minimum .243 caliber for deer hunting so I bought her a Ruger American in .243. Now this, in the hunting regulations released recently, starting this coming season "Provides that, for a hunting season beginning after June 30, 2025, ............................. a hunter may...

    Help with Cartridge

    Dead on! In the early 90's Remington made a small run of the Model 700 Mountain Rifle in 7x57. My wife is small and recoil sensitive so I bought one of them for her. It took maybe 2 shots and she fell in love with it.

    New Athlon Chronograph

    I held off ordering because I wanted to wait until some reviews came out. The reviews I've seen have been favorable, so now I'm kinda wishing I hadn't waited to order, as every place has them backordered. I placed my order today with Eurooptic. With my VIP discount (veteran discount) the...

    .223 for bear, mountain goat, deer, elk, and moose.

    It would definitely be in the "for serious use only" category. A few for chronographing and sighting in, save the rest for "serious use only".

    .223 for bear, mountain goat, deer, elk, and moose.

In this tests the Shell Shock ammunition averaged 225 fps faster then Black Hills ammunition, both loaded with 77 grain Sierra Match King bullets. 17:30...

    .223 for bear, mountain goat, deer, elk, and moose.

    My brother has a Handi Rifle .223 with the heavy barrel. His documentation says it is 12" twist and states to not shoot projectiles over 55 grain weight.
