    What is the best way to extend a butt stock?

    My boy has killed 7 or 8 deer with this little gun growing up and I have killed a couple. He is 17 now and I bought him a full size 308. But this is a awesome little gun. My plans are keeping this gun and giving it to my grand kid some day to hunt with. So my grand kid can hunt with and kill...

    What is the best way to extend a butt stock?

    Curious to see what is the best way to extend a butt stock? I have a Browning Xbolt Micro Hunter in 7-08 that was my sons when he was small. The length of pull is 12.5in and it has a 20in barrel. I would like to extend the length of pull to 13.5-14in. It would be just like a Rem model 7. It...

    Direct Ignition systems

    The DIS just isn’t for me. I know it’s muzzeloader hunting and you only have one shot it the gun. But I can think of multiple occasions when I reloaded 2 or 3 times as fast as I can in the woods hunting. My favorite special hunt to get drawled for here in Missouri is Babler State Park and you...

    CVA can’t run away from everybody. Who would they steal their ideas from? Lol

    Ruger Beat Winchester At Their Own Game.

    Does it say how long the barrel is on the Ruger Americans? The 350 Legend ammo says the cartridge was designed and speed rated for a 20in barrel. Hopefully that’s what Ruger used.

    Non-ML deer rifles?

    My two favorite deer calibers have always been 30/06 and 35 Rem.

    Non-ML deer rifles?

    The 6.5 creedmoore is a great choice for a 6.5 caliber in a short action rifle. It’s better than the 260 with heavier bullets because the case is better designed for them. The 6.5 Swede isn’t really comparable because it’s a long action. Comparing apples to apples the 6.5-06 stomps the 6.5 Swede...

    New from Winchester, .350 Legend

    The FMJ’s for $9.99 a box and low recoil is what makes the 350 Legend a great looking round. Kids women and all new shooters really need a lot of practice. They need to be confident when the time comes to make the shot. Most people don’t reload and buying several boxes of 25-35 dollar ammo for a...

    New from Winchester, .350 Legend

    One thing I don’t understand about the 350 Legend. Is the 350 Legend is supposed to run on 55,000 psi of pressure. So how are they offering it in a TC Contender that’s supposed to have a 45,000 max? I really have no need for the 350 Legend. I already have a 13in TC Contender pistol in 357 Max...

    New from Winchester, .350 Legend

    I may be wrong but aernt all full metal jacket bullets a hair smaller diameter than the original bullet diameter because the bullet is so hard. It would be hard on the rifling in the barrel if not. But the hunting bullets are supposed to be .357 diameter from what I have read. All the specs of...

    New from Winchester, .350 Legend

    The 350 Legend is legal to use in Iowa. The Drury’s and Winchester already checked with the Iowa DNR. The Drury’s already killed several deer in Iowa last year with the 350 Legend. They gave the Iowa DNR all the bullet specs but wouldn’t tell them what it was because it was still a prototype...

    6.5 Grendel

    I have been doing a lot of reading today about the 350 Legend. For a kid or a woman it’s a catridge worth taking a serious look at. It’s a 223 case with a .357 cal bullet. It only uses about 27grs of powder. The recoil is supposed to be 20% less than a 243 Win. It was also designed for a 20in...

    6.5 Grendel

    As far as youth and women bolt actions. I bought my son at 10 or 11yrs old a Browning Xbolt Micro Midas in 7-08. That’s a nice looking really accurate little gun. It’s pretty much a Rem model 7 with a 12.5in youth stock. They also chamber them in 6.5 Creedmoore which is right between a 243 and a...

    6.5 Grendel

    Since your boy already is shooting a TC Encore with a 20in barrel. I would go on Haus of Arms site and look at there 20in MGM 357 Maximum and 20in 350 Legend barrels. The gun will be exactly the same size and there won’t be much recoil at all. The 357 Max and 350 Legend are pretty much the same...

    MGM Preferred & Brux

    Alright I don’t know what happened there. But on those ASG LRMP plugs the long plug is a 700 plug and the short plug is a break action plug. The the break action plug is shorter for a reason. The break action LRMP plug and the MGM 209 plug are both 9/16x24. Hankins has a video on YouTube...

    That’s a picture of a 700 plug versus a break action plug.

    MGM Preferred & Brux

    First thank you for coming on here and answering my questions. I asked them because I don’t know the answer and figured somebody did. If you don’t know something you ask someone who does right? So I have one more question. All break action guns breech plugs are substantially shorter than...

    MGM Preferred & Brux

    What am I missing? If I ordered a 26in MGM 45/70 barrel and sent it to ASG. Paid ASG to convert that barrel to smokeless with there carbide bushing 209 Breech plug. How would that not be exactly the same barrel MGM sells right now? MGM muzzeloader barrels have ASG carbide bushing 209 breech...

    What is the difference between Haus of Arms 45cal muzzeloader barrel with ASG’s carbide bushing 209 Breech plug. Then sending a 45/70 barrel to ASG and having it converted to smokeless with ASG’s 209 carbide bushing plug? Wouldn’t it be the exact same thing? People have the 45/70 conversions...

    MGM Preferred & Brux

    The only difference I see is Haus of Arms barrels are .810 heavy factory contour the same as TC Prohunter barrels. The ASG Preferred/MGM barrels are full Bull 1in barrels. Other than that they have the exact same breach plugs and everything. MGM don’t charge any difference in price between a...
