    Cranes & Geese Loads

    Depends on what you wanna spend? Geese Steel: BBBs, BBs, 1s, 2s in will kill geese just fine Bismuth: 1s, 2s, 3s & 4s Tungsten: 2s, 3s, 4s I shoot so many geese, I just use cheap steel BBs for my 12ga, but if I'm shooting sub gauges. I like 2 or 3 Bismuth for my 20ga and for my 28ga I like...

    Over Priced Things That Shouldn't Be?

    I get the supply/demand curve, inflation, increasing gas prices and the domino effect it has on prices, I get the politics side of it along with quality ideas..... But to me. Plastic is still plastic....IMO a jug of water and the plastic it uses is still the same plastic of goose decoys. Yes...

    Over Priced Things That Shouldn't Be?

    So like all consumers, I try to buy the best things at the best prices. Value is important. I'm also crazy obsessed with hunting/shooting and do subscribe to "buy once, cry once" when it comes to things that I don't want to compromise. My waterfowl gun (12ga SBE2) has run the gauntlet for near...

    Argentina dove hunting

    Argentina was unbelievable. I won a DU raffle and went. I'd go again in a heart beat! I went with my dad, brother and uncle. Doves EVERYWHERE! And we hunted the "off season in March." Bring a shoulder shooting pad and shooting gloves. I was perfectly fine with that, 20s are light on the...

    Woman’s shotguns

    Syren and Weatherby make women's guns: https://www.outdoorlife.com/guns-for-women-field-testing-weatherby-camilla-rifle-and-syren-xlr5-waterfowler-shotgun/ Apparently their combs are lower to support a better shoulder pocket on women's guns. Weatherby makes a .308 rifle.

    Where to buy 16 Gauge Non Toxic Shells?

    If you really want, Boss has 16ga non-toxic.....it's expensive for #7 shot and they come in 20 round boxes or a case of 200 would get you 8 rounds..... 😬😬

    Tikka Not Grouping??

    Ok boys. Just got home from the range. Needless to say I'm VERY happy. To Recap: Last Friday, I put Federal Blue Box 180s on paper and it shot 1.5'-2" groups. I then shot 5 rounds of 180gr CoreLoks and 5 rounds of 200 gr Terminal Ascent. Just hoping something would group. All three grouped...

    Tikka Not Grouping??

    Sanded it down to get a free float and I can pull a sheet of paper almost all the way back to where the barrel meets the chamber. But not all the way, cuz the sides of the stock near the chamber are snug....is this an issue? Am I to sand off some of the side piece.....? Also grabbed 2 other...

    Tikka Not Grouping??

    I had a 338 Win Mag that I just sold and I routinely shoot 20ga and 12ga slugs for deer since I'm in a slug only location.

    Tikka Not Grouping??

    So I just checked the torque screws near the action to and tightened them to 42#s , the front one was almost at 42#s and the one near the trigger guard was a little more loose, not horrible, but I backed it off and retightenes it to 42#s. Also checked the free float and was able to put a $1...

    Tikka Not Grouping??

    I usually shoot 3 shot groups. All my groups did the same, 2 close and then a flyer. My last 2 groups, I was chuckling with my brother. I shot 2 close, just left of center and the one flyer was 1.5in right. I loaded 3 more rounds & two shots 1.5" right (right next the flyer from the...
