    Suppressors sbr / barrel and silencer

    yeah thats something to make sure of.. If the barrel and suppressor combo is 16" and permanently affixing them together will bypass the sbr paperwork, that would be even better, and just have stamp for suppressor, I just dont know how that works. Im good with 16" overall, just dont want to add...

    Photos Fort Phantom Hill in Abilene

    Took the kids on a road trip to Ft. Phantom Hill in Abilene, spotted this nice little steel plate setup. My only concern is its scarily close to a public park area (maybe 10-15 yds from the fence) and the small steel looks as if it was shot at from the other direction towards the park...

    Youth training/ competitions in north Texas

    I recently took my son ( 10 yr old) out for some proper shooting instead of just letting him roam the property with a BB gun plinking cans and the occasional bird at 10 ft. Turns out the kid is a dang good shot on his own. I have a 20 yr old worn out savage 22lr semi auto with iron sights, and...

    Is there an ammo ban in the works I am missing...?

    Re: Is there an ammo ban in the works I am missing...? yeah, Ive been trying not to do this but as things go, Ive found myself in a bit of a bind. I purchased a .308 bolt action gun right as this all blew up, got a deal on it because everyone was trying to get an AR, and bolt guns were...

    Re: bullet imperfections - what do I do with this? Thanks for input. Id love to shoot one hole groups but even with the best stuff, Im not that skilled I dont think! its still a pretty tight grouping rifle at 100 yds despite being a lower end model without accustock or accutrigger, and I...

    Range Report bullet imperfections - what do I do with this?

    I bought a couple of boxes of federal fusion 308 ammo for my rifle (a bolt action savage - nothing fancy, 3-9x40 nikon scope, target shooting mostly at 200-300 yds). Here is what I found when I got home. Most bullets in the box of 20 have the lead from core spilled over like welding slag. Its...
