I bought a Springfield M1A Bush in 308 Winchester. This is a great gun and I would never sell the little rifle. Very accurate and never a stoppage with good ammo. Without scope and original sights it is no problem to get 2-3" groups at 100 meters. I scoped my Bush with the Springfield mount and...

Ravenman

Old Savage,
Did you shot this group with or without scope and what kind of ammo did you use?
Anyway not that bad at all!

Ravenman

OS that's pretty good shooting with your S&W Model 24. You can't go wrong with 2400. My favorite powder for all my Magnum (357, 41 and 44) reloads. Do not have a 44 Special but one day I got to buy one. This cartridge has spirit. Otteray, did you get the velocity readings out of a Super Blackhaw...

Ravenman

Grizz, nice "Buntline" Ruger with custom front sight. I prefer a smooth wood grip. Do not like the Pachmayr grips. Good results with Eagle Buffalo grips and Eagle Elk grips. The look good and roll perfect.

Ravenman

OS did not notice before that not both Rugers are the same gun. But now I see the difference.
What's the favorite diet of your S&W M 24?

Ravenman

OS that's a beautiful gun and your group will let Elmer smile for sure!
Three goodies in your last picture. Love the look of the S&W M 24. An all time classic.

Ravenman

My thinking too; bring back Ross Seyfried

Ravenman

OS,
Would buy the Browning 65 but in Switzerland it is near impossible to get one. The Standard
Grade Browning 65 costs about $ 1'600.00 and the High Grade about $2'600.00.

Ravenman

Bought some Wilson Combat magazines for my Delta Elite 10 Auto. They work perfect with 45 ACP ammo! But the Wilson Combat magazines for 45 ACP will not work with 10 Auto ammo.

Ravenman

Love all the 10 Auto pistols. Have a Bren Ten and a Delta Elite Custom. My Delta has a Clark ramped barrel and a LPA rear sight with custom front. Both are great shooters. You can't go wrong with the 10 Auto! http://i234.photobucket.com/albums/ee248/SwissRavenman/P9148781.jpg http://i234.photobucket...

Ravenman

Old Savage,
A 44 Magnum Superblackhawk is also a great gun. Your Savage 99 seems to be a keeper too! You have the right stuff for all your hunting needs at any range!! 88er, 99er and BLR what more can one ask for?

Ravenman

Old Savage,
Hope you find one day a Winchester Big Bore pre safety in 307 Winchester.
Just can't wait to get some Hornady LeverEvolution bullets to make some reloads for my 307 Winchester.

Ravenman

Old No7,
Great and Waidmannsheil!!

Ravenman

Picked from my collection: Levergun without scope; Winchester 1895 with peep sight in 30.06. Levergun with scope; Winchester 94 XTR 7-30 Waters 24" with Leupold 3-9x40 Duplex and Federal factory ammo within 250yards or my Winchester 94 Big Bore XTR 307 Winchester with Leupold 6x42 Duplex scope ...

Ravenman

Thanks Fred. This gun is a keeper! No problem to get great groups with anything I load. Only one exeption; my LTR does not like 150grs. bullets. I tried Sierra 150grs. Spitzer BT, Nosler Ballistic Tip, Hornady 150grs. Spire Point and Speer Grand Slam but nothing worked. Tested all 150grs. bullets wi...

Ravenman

jjames, My vote goes to the Remington LTR. But I bought the 308 Winchester. Great little rifle. Very accurate and a joy to shot. http://i234.photobucket.com/albums/ee248/SwissRavenman/IMG_0021.jpg http://i234.photobucket.com/albums/ee248/SwissRavenman/IMG_0009_1.jpg http://i234.photobucket.com/album...

Very nice. And here is my reloading heaven.

Thanks Hobie!

What does BTT mean?

Ravenman

Shawn, Great gun and amazing cartridge. I am sure you will love the performance on game. Also very accurate. Have a Blaser S2 double rifle in 9.3x74R. Let us know how your Ruger No.1 groups. http://i234.photobucket.com/albums/ee248/SwissRavenman/IMG_0121.jpg http://i234.photobucket.com/albums/ee248/...

Ravenman

Old Savage,
Nice rifle and good shooting as usual. But only one question; did you made a timeslip? 06/19/09??

Ravenman

As you all know by now :roll: , the Winchester Mod. 94 in the Big Bore configuration. Slim, powerful, balanced and except for the stupid frankenstein bolt on mine(first year introduced 1992), beautiful! http://i17.photobucket.com/albums/b96/CCash/DSCN3501.jpg My thinking too. Could not say it bette...

Ravenman

Salvo,
He shots Winchester factory 200grs. ammo and his toploads are Barnes 220grs. FN, 50grs. H380, CCI 200 and Barnes 250grs. FN 48.0grs. H380, CCI 200.

Ravenman

Salvo very nice stock on your Browning M71. These Brownings are great rifles and very accurate. Friend of mine has the same model with a Williams firesight. Here he uses the gun at the 200 meter range. http://i234.photobucket.com/albums/ee248/SwissRavenman/IMG_0214.jpg http://i234.photobucket.com/al...

Ravenman

Very good morning!

That's a great combo. Distance you shot the groups and what kind of ammo did you use in the Marlin?

Ravenman

Nice family! But the child with the tatoo?

Ravenman

Does anyone here have/or has read Keith's book "Big Game Hunting"? If so tell me whether you think it's worth tracking down, Thanks! Great reading! Buy it if you can. Also some amazing books of the great old man; "Sixguns", "Hell, I was there", "Gun Notes I and II...

Ravenman

Love these Black rifles too. Flat top models are easier to put a scope (or red dot) on. You can mount scopes very low and aiming is much more comfortable. Some of my Colt's. http://i234.photobucket.com/albums/ee248/SwissRavenman/DSC_0257.jpg http://i234.photobucket.com/albums/ee248/SwissRavenman/IMG...

Dave,
Good shooting. But every day at the range is a good day!

Ravenman

Well, OK, I'll have to give in, those pairs are nicer than mine, but I'll bet in another 20 years or so my pair won't show the effects of Gravity as much. That's for sure! :D Ravenman, You ever get over in my neck of the woods to do any shootin? We have a great CAS weekend 2nd-4th May in Harringsee...

[quote="gundownunder"]Thanks for sharing Ji, and I for one wholeheartedly forgive you.

I consider my 357 with 180 gr. bullet acceptable for deer, but I limit my shots to 75 yards or less. I would not personally take a 150 yard shot with mine. My thinking too. These are the words of a real hunter! Someone wrote he would use a scoped Marlin 1894 357 Magnum 300 yards shots with "go...

Rusty, Have a Ruger 9622 M. As Modoc ED wrote it is a great little rifle. The trigger is not so bad at all. My 9622M shots the lighter bullets more accurate than the "heavy" stuff. Very good results with CCI TNT HP, Federal TNT HP (same bullet) and Remington Premier. Not so good with Winch...
