    Wow. So many changes

    Hello again everybody. Been gone for a long time, I guess since the original board went down. I got the email to come back a few weeks ago. What a change. RIP Dave. That was a big shock. I always enjoyed his posts, banter and knowledge of this sport. All that said, I have not fired a ML shot...

    Gun shop heads up used TC sidelocks

    Just a heads up. I was at Williams Gun Sight in Davison MI yesterday. They have numerous TC Hawkens, Renegades and a couple New Englanders in the used gun rack. Pretty decent prices on them.

    I searched but did not find the answer. Excuse me if I missed it someplace. Is the 10ml-11 a long or short action length?

    Breechplugs, ventliners and SMI

    I've been following all the posts on SMI barrels and their breechplug designs and it started me thinking. Savage uses ventliners in their gun that will shoot smokeless and BP. SMI I understand does not and you can still shoot BP. Breech blowback is not an issue with either system is it? Is...

I won't have a chance to shoot it this season as I will have to budget for mounts, rings, powder etc as I spent a ton trying to get the T/C to shoot. The Encore has...

    Restocking the Savage

    Besides Boyds what other stock options are there to replace the plastic stock? Will stocks for centerfire Savages work with mods for the ramrod? I hate the plastic. I can squeeze the stock to the barrel and the balance is horrible. I think even though I don't need another project gun to spend...

    Encore to Savage questions

    Hi all, I'm having so many problems getting any good groups out of my Encore I'm thinking of dumping it for a Savage. My 12FLV shoots great. I have a friend with a NIB Savage stainless with the plastic stock I can pick up. My questions are these. The plastic stock is the same crummy one that...

    Consistant flyers= Bad scope?

    Still trying to get the Encore to shoot. I had the QLA removed and a six screw mount installed and still having flyers ruin good groups. Today with both pyrodex and APP weighed charges and several different bullets I was getting two shots that are touching at 100 yards and then the 3rd shot...
