Bear hunting is Arkansas is basically over the day the first acorn (akerns to locals) falls. This year it happened the first week of Sept before the season even started.
I'd wager there is a near zero percentage chance of success in November or December for bears.
For an idea of what AGFC...
It shoots lights out off of a bench. It's when I use a tripod or any shooting positions that "load" the foreend so to speak. That's when it gets wonky.
Pulled the barreled action last night after checking it (no stock to barrel contact as it sits on my reloading bench) and am trying a friend's...
To the OP- I signed up for the email notification from Stockys Stocks for blemished stocks that work for my needs.
I don't care what color it is as a rattle can will make it all match.
I DO care about saving damned near 50% off the price though.
That's short action only. Which isn't for the 3006.
I've currently got a Howa 1500 in 270 at the gunsmith getting rebarrelled into 6.5-284 Norma and I've been looking for a lightweight drop in stock for it.
McMillian has had several.
Had a Tracker on 44 Mag. Didn't like it with +P 44 Mag ammo but it was a pleasant to shoot pu$$y cat with heavy 44 Special ammo.
I've since bought a couple more Taurus revolvers.
Its headed back to the factory. I have other shotguns of much higher quality sitting in the safe but i really liked how light and handy this one was - and it basically lives in the gun rack on my SxS so I knew it was gonna get beat up. It was doing a bang up job (pun intended) right until it...
As soon as I get a spare moment thats exactly where it is going. Unless TriStar wants me to send it back to them. Waiting on a reply from them at the moment.
Had a TriStar 20 gauge shotgun have an out-of-battery detonation using Remington ammo.
Pics below.
Has anyone had this happen before and what was the cause and remedy?
Thanks,
Brian.
My 84 year old Nana once used a bolt action 410 shotgun on a mouse... In her kitchen.
She went 0 and 3 before Grandpa disarmed her. Never hit the mouse but it did a number on the baseboards, cabinet fronts, and floor.
turning my Howa 270 into a 7 PRC.
proof barrel of C/F around 18"
Need to upgrade from standard bolt face to magnum bolt face - who is the GO TO guy for this?
Mine shoots quite well off the bench but i struggle with stock flex when shooting out of a ground blind window sill or off of a fence post. Vertical shifting of POI vs POA. Want to try it off of a tripod but am concerned about loading the tripod and getting the same vertical shift.
The key - at least for me - when shooting any pencil barrel, ultralight rifle is to shoot my rimfire rifle while the Kimber cools. Helps me focus on the fundamentals that i frequently let slide. As you know if you let them slip even a little bit when shooting a light rifle the results will NOT...
