    Very nice factory guns, its just a finnlight in a carbon stock. Very nice stock, worth the extra $ to save 200g thats up to you. Personally think they are overpriced now. Sent from my SM-G930F...

    p.s. I mentioned "fruit cake gully" and ".223 face". There's "venison gully" too. Aspiring hunters should do that...give locations and favourite spots names. Get to know an area intimately and grow...

    I'm a fan of the old Brno's. They're beautifully made. My 1950 Model 1 with Eley standard will group into .25" for five shots at 50m. With CCI hunting subs it'll do around .5" at the same range. Of...

    Few more to consider - Weihrauch HW 60 J in 22LR - delightful rifle. Also if it ever appears Norinco Em332 - nice match action and super accurate at 100m. And one or two of the Remingtons - 541 and...

    Another reason they're called a Rattle Gun, to be fair they don't really do anything quietly while hunting, I only use mine when in shooting from a vehicle. Get a plastic mag, they're usually...

    Let's start with what ruger has done right - the mag. The factory mags, black, clear, 10 shots, 25 shots, are all very good and the most reliable ones you can buy. There exists a aftermarket version...
