You are correct. I'd be shooting the same ammo I get for my AR which is generally cheap bulk ammo. The MVP is 1:9 my AR is 1:7. I will keep an eye out for twist rate. Thanks.

I was looking at the CZ Scout. I like that it's set up for irons.

As much as I'd like to get a big caliber bolt action rifle I don't think it's fiscally practical at this time. So I've decided whatever bolt action rifle I get it should be chambered for 223. I'm considering the Mossberg MVP, Savage Axis, Remington 700. Honestly I really don't know ANYTHING about rifles/long guns. These are just the names that came up through talking with people/google searches. So I'm turning to the long gun fans on here to point me in the right direction and put more options on the table. I'm not looking to spend a ton of money, $500ish is my ceiling and preferably lower since I know you gotta leave room for optics, mounts, etc. (Although I wouldn't mind shooting irons in the beginning.) One more question: Is there a major centerfire rifle caliber bigger than 223 that is somewhat affordable to shoot? 30 06, 3030, 270, 308, pretty much everything I looked at was well over a dollar around or close to it. Thanks for your help! Let a new addition begin!

The story doesn't have enough info really from what I can tell to draw an accurate conclusion on exactly what happened. There are several youtube, facebook, twitter, and other social medial accounts that I'm sure have had similar pictures whether with real guns or fake guns and I'd doubt that all of them got investigated by the police.

I handled one at Shore Shot and the trigger is super nice. It's definitely on my short list of the ones I"m considering.

Oh my God was that post real?! Guess my malfunction wasn't so stupid.

LOL!

Any good time to go when the weather is warm? I don't mind it being a little cold if it avoids the crowd.

Haven't these been around for a while? I personally prefer that the original manufacturer make their 22 version of their gun. I can't say anything bad about Umarex since I've never handled one of their firearms. I just feel a lot better about the product if the company I like and trust is making it rather than handing it off to someone else.

I went to Ft. Dix recently and really enjoyed it. I was there around 9AM on Saturday and it was not too busy. For those of you who frequent that range what's the best time to go to avoid the crowd? It was pretty open that day on the rifle/pistol range as well as the trap/skeet range. Is this typical in or is it just because it's the winter?

Can I please see this throw gun thread? I gotta know now.

I just looked up ammo prices for various rifle rounds and it's too much for me. I think 223 is probably best. Should have never even went into this forum. Next thread topic: Help me find a good first rifle! LOL.

I used a pair of vice grips and pulled extremely hard. Got it out. I didn't really push the mag in that hard. Don't know why it was wedged in there so bad. No throwing required! Haha. Thanks for the help.

Yes I shot 30 06 once. Three rounds. I was good for the day. Haha! I don't know what caliber I'd get if I did get one. Rifle ammo above 223 gets expensive.

Good point Jon. Just like how you can make indoor pistol shooting more challenging by doing new drills I'm sure you can get creative with rifle. I just thought at 200yd an AR is plenty accurate where you won't tell a difference between it and a dedicated long range/bolt action style rifle. Especially since I'm considering the same caliber (223). Do you think that's the case? Bolt action might be a good thing for me. 200 plus rounds did not last long. I shoot rifle like I shoot pistol.

Yes I suppose I don't need multiple hand guns to shoot at the same range either. Don't tell me the long gun bug is as bad as the handgun bug.

I shot at Ft. Dix for the first time and it was a very nice range. Now that I have a place to use rifles I started considering getting more into long guns. I was thinking about getting an R700, Ruger Scout, or Mossberg MVP. But is there really any point if all I'm shooting is 200 yards? Keep in mind I currently have an AR15 that just has iron sights on it right now (will probably ge an Aimpoint Pro). I think that is just find for 200 yard work. Do I really need a dedicated rifle platform?

Shot at Ft. Dix today. Awesome range! At the end of the session I decided to put my mag back into my 1911 not realizing a piece of the chamber flag was in the mag well. The flag got jammed between the mag well and the mag itself. The mag can't be pulled out and I've used a lot of force. The flag is the same. Any ideas how to clear this jam? I've not used any tools yet. That's a snapcap not a live round and the flag is not stuck on the snapcap. It can wiggle around, but hard to move due to flag in the way.

For those of you who have carried both what did you like better? How were they different? Any advantages in how they carried, were able to be drawn, comfort, concealment? Does a J-Frame carry better/worse than the modern day single stack sub-compacts we see today like the XDS, Shield, Nano, etc.? Just getting a feel for how they differ in CCW applications. Note: This question is focused on how the carry/deploy and not so much on their capabilities as a weapon (ie capacity, strength of round, etc).

I inspected mine and honestly they don't look dirty at all so I don't think I need to clean them. Is that correct? The only time I had to was I found a lot of waxy build up from loading lead rounds with that wax ring.

Am I wasting my time going in later in day before 2 to try to pick up an 870? I think the total discount on it would have been $20 anyways, but savings is savings. Not if it's worth getting trampled by a crowd though... I will gladly pay $20 more to avoid the mob. To add to this, for those of you who go at midnight and buy a rifle/shotgun do you pay then and go back for NICS later or do they just not sell long guns until the morning?

I watched this a little while ago. I liked it although I do wish there was more shooting action. The sequences you do see are really cool. Overall not a bad movie at all, but it's more drama than action for the most part and it's all in the middle. Action is only at beginning and end. I think that's why most people were disappointed.

I've surprised there's not much word on this gun. I think it's been out a while. I have read on other forums their feedback, but local feedback always nice. I saw one at Shoreshot as well. I did shoot the P238 and it was really fun. I found the trigger to be kinda heavy and I read the P938 is about the same.

I'm considering getting this as my "fun gun". I have not read much long term ownership reviews on it though. It is kinda expensive and I'd hate to own something that is somewhat gimmicky and finicky. Anyone own one here?

Getting married was the dumbass move or selling the keltec? LOL!
