Local gun store has a Ruger American Rifle in 308 Winchester for something like $450. I do not remember the "exact" price, but it was somewhere in that price range. Camo stock Scope mounts No scope. I am thinking about putting a rifle on lay away for an early christmas present to myself. I...

I need some help deciding on a new caliber bolt action rifle. One that would be fun to shoot. I have an ar15 and the recoil isn't bad and is fun to shoot. Doesn't wear the shoulder out. I also have a marlin 30 30 lever that kicks hard but the lever cycling is fun. I also h have a Mosin...

I have a friend who just recently came out as a wannabe survivalist LOL He want's to buy a rifle, he already owns a handgun and shotgun. I took him to the range and let him shoot every one of my rifles, and he has decided that he wants an AR15. I tried to push him towards a Remington 700 in...

The canadian military are bringing to the end the long service of the Lee Enfield rifle. http://metronews.ca/news/canada/1187420/lee-enfield-rifle-phased-out-by-canadian-military-after-100-years-of-service/ In my opinions the greatest battle rifle in the world. still in use by a few nations...

Any one have any comments on this gun or the general Venture platform? Thanks, Bob

A local pawn shop has a Remington Model 788 in 308 winchester for around $500. Is a Remington Model 788 worth $500, or should I make the guy a lower offer? The magazines on the Model 788 rattles something terrible. Another pawn shop in Newton Texas has a Remington 700 for $500. I offered the...

Some kind of worse case situation has happened, you and your family have to bug out to the Bug Out Location, and how what? Keep in mind, this is a worse case situation, meaning you did not have time to grab any gear from your home. The only gear you have, is the gear you have stored at the...

So i have decided that the most price appropriate option for me is a bolt action rifle. I like the .308 and .30-06 for their avilability and performance. I was long considering a Ruger American Rifle, but they are selling faster than ruger can make them. I have been considering the Remington...

So my two year anniversary with my girlfriend is coming up and we decided to focus on material gifts this year. We set a $200-400 price range and she's been asking what I want. SO.... -Savage Axis 30-06 rifle (debate encouraged as I don't know enough about their quality) -ESEE 6 -Cold Steel...

Ok, so here we are. I have currently come across a.. new rifle. Its a savage axis chambered in 243. Along with my sidearm it will be my survival/hunting rifle. been using 243 for everything from bunnies to elk and one bear (didnt have my 300 savage). But does anyone know the longest shot...

Hi there! As school nears the end I am starting to think about my summer break. I am planning to go take my firearm safety course, getting my PAL and buy my first rifle. I have been reading reviews and it seems Savage makes good rifles for the money. I'm thinking about this rifle (Savage Axis...

Im on a budget around $500, has anyone shot or know anything about this rifle? It seems to be pretty good on reviews.. It is a Mossberb Atr 100 Night train in 308 caliber.. Im just looking to upgrade somewhat from my old 742 woodmaster 30-06 hunting rifle.. Any advice on this gun...

Looking at ballistics I see that the .243 has much less drop than the .308, would that also mean that the .243 is more accurate? This would mostly be a rifle used to hunt white tail. I have heard that the .243 will cause more damage to edible meat due to the higher velocity, would it really...

I have been looking and researching and talking with people about bolt action high powered rifles. And Ive come to the conclusion that when i find the right one I would perfer a .308. A couple days ago I found this, it is the Mossberg 308, 100 ATR Night Train Special Purpose Bolt-Action Rifle...

I'm looking into purchasing my first bolt action(besides my .22lr). I want to use it as a defensive gun to immobilize vehicles that try to come onto my land in a shtf situation also a using as a hunting rifle also. I have about a $500 dollar limit to spend on the gun and a scope. I would like to...

Anyone know where to get more mags for an H&R model 865 Plainsman in a 22S-L-LR? I have only been able to find them on one site, and they want $40 each! I need the straight mags versus the curved ones. Thanks, Fisher

Anyone have any experience with this rifle? Ive read nothing but good reviews online but would like to get some input for anyone that has owned/shot this rifle.. Thank in advance :thumb:

This is a really neat gun

Ms gillard, with the help of my accountant has decided to get me a rifle in exchange for all that tax they so generously take from me every week. budget is 1000-1500 all up including scope, bipod etc. I'm mainly interested in a .308 or a .30-06 looking at a howa 1500 in a knox axiom stock, A...

I want to get a bolt gun for hunting and long range accuracy. Just don't want to spend over $400 for one. I have looked at the reviews and such on the net. just wanted to see if any of you have personal experience or suggestions on one. Thanks.
