Ok, I am currently in the market for a long range bolt action rifle. I can only shoot to 200 yds at this point at range-14 but I do plan on getting into long range shooting (1000 yds) in the near future. I need some advice, .308, .300 winmag or .300 rum? I am not planning on doing any hunting with this rifle, yet, but even if I do, I won't be hunting a 1000 yds. What do you think about these 3 rounds? Ammo price is also a consideration but not a major one. Also, remington, savage, mossberg, etc.... Which in your opinion is better.

Thanks, I appreciate all your help.

Folks, I will hopefully be selling my first rifle f2f and need some advise. I know that the buyer needs to have a valid fid and matching dl, and a coe needs to be filled out. Is nics required? Do photo copies of fid and dl of buyer/seller need to be made? Does anything need to be sent to njsp?

2 weeks ago I bought 3 50 round boxes of .357 UMC at Dick's for $29.99 each

The invasion of privacy is dyfs walking into Shawn's house and demanding he open his gun safe. And no, they didn't have probable cause, a picture of a kid holding a rifle and smiling is not illegal and is not probable cause. There was absolutely no evidance of any child abuse in that photograph. And yes, procedures should change, I have heard countless stories of people calling dyfs for no reason other than to get someone in trouble. And when dyfs shows up you are guilty until proven inoccent.

I personally never said sue for cash. I said sue for harasment and invasion of privacy to make sure those.responsible get reprimanded, and hopefully policy gets changed.

Then what exactly is our legal system for? If we cant sue a government agency for violating our rights, then what good is it. our legal system was designed for this specific reason, checks and balance.

Congrats I would sue just to see that dyfs worker gets reprimanded for her actions. I would sue for harasment and invasion of privacy.

Bought the 96A1 with 3 12 round mags. Both the 92A1 and 96A1 have a removable front sight, all other 92 (including M9A1) models don't have the removable front sight, not sure about the vertec. Here is mine with trijicon sights front and rear

I never had a problem with an NRA sticker, but at one time there was a note left stuck in my wiper blade in response to my "Gun Control Means Using Both Hands" sticker. It was a while ago but read something like "It's rednecks like you who are the cause of all the crime in this country".

Done

It took me some time but I was finally able to make it out to the range yesterday. I would like to thank all of you for talking me out of changing the barrel. It wasn't the gun, it was me. Once I adjusted the rear sight correctly correctly and got used to the sight picture, I was shooting 5 inch groups at 15 yards, nothing to be proud of but a definite improvement.

Braided line is definately the best option but there are a few things you need to whatch out for. barided line is very thin, slick and not elastic, dont wind it on the real on its own, first put a few yards of 6 or 8 lbs mono on the real then tie the braides line to the monowith a double uni not. Then real the braided line very tight, if you dont it will sink into itself on the real. Dont set the hook like you would with mono, mono stretches braided doesnt, if you set the hook as hard with braided as you do with mono you will rip the fish's lips off. Finally, braided is very hard to cut, I use very sharp scissors or wire cutters, cutting it with a knife is extremely difficult. You can find many youtube videos on how to tie a uni no. one more thing, braided line is lighter than mono, it will fly off your real very fast. If you have a magnetic break use it, if not tighten your drag a little, otherwise you will end up with a birds nest and a birds nest qith braided will ruin you day.

As I will be going to range 14 for the first time this sunday, I called them to ask a simple question. One of there range rules is that all rifles have to have a stock, so I called and asked them if a pump SG has to have a stock also, the girl on the phone didn't know the answer and asked some guy who was standing next to her. The girl has the phone in her hand and she is asking the guy so I hear the whole conversation. The guy starts to think out loud and says "I think NJ allows HD shotguns to have a pistol grip only" I'm thinking NJ allows HD SG to have pistol grips? I was always under the impression that NJ law does not restrict anything for pumps. Then he says at the top of his lungs "Ok, he can shoot it here as long as he doesn't do anything stupid or illegal" Are these people for real?

Ok, just called remington, they are sending me a shipping label, again, what are the procedures for shipping a firearm? This scope looks promissing but I really want a variable power scope with long eye relief to set up as a scout scope. Any suggestions on a 1-4x or 2.5-7x scope, I am willing to go up to $300. Anyone have experience with this scope? http://www.opticsplanet.com/nikon-force-xr-riflescopes-2-5-8x28mm-eer-bdc-reticle.html

Ok, with the help of a heat gun I was able to remove the xs sights and rail and put the original sights back on. Both front and rear sights are canted a little to the left, it's not much but noticeable. It appears that I bought it in December 2011 so I still have my warranty. I will call Remington tomorrow to have them repair it. Now, I have never shipped a firearm anywhere, what is the procedure for shipping it to Remington? I am assuming they will send me a shipping label, but how should I package it?

I need to check my paper work when I get home to see when I bought it. But if I can remove the XS front sights, which I will try to do tonight, and i'm still under warranty, I will definately send it to them.

just called remington, to replace the barrel is $108 plus labor. If I can remove the XS front sight, they should be bale to re-index the barrel for $50. Know I have to find a way to remove the front sight. But then again, if I can remove the front sight I can probably put it back on straight this time. Need to figure out how to remove the black magic without damaging the barrel. Just read that the working temp for loctite black max (don't know why I was calling it black magic) is between -65 degF to 225 degF. I will try to put a heat gun on it tonight see if it comes off. I still want to put a scope on, maybe on QD mount.

Since I already put the new front sight on my self, with black magic which is pretty much permanent. I would probably have to pay for a new barrel as well as shipping.

I like my 96A1. Unlike other 92 style berettas, the A1 models have a removable front sight. I think I paid $650 for mine and $85 for the trijicon sigjts.

Ok folks, I need some advise. My Marlin 336A is built by remington and the quality is not that great, however I love the gun and want to keep it, I have considerred selling it but I just can't do it. The problem I have is that it appears that the barrel is not indexed correctly and the original front sight was canted out of the box. I don't want to send it back to remington, so that is not an option for me. I tried to remedy this by adding the XS rail and ghost ring sights and I glued the front sight on using black magic, not using the original screw hole to try to get it as straight as possible, but it is still a little canted. I have pretty much given up on trying to fix the sights and now want to put a scope on it, but I want something that will be usable at close range as well as long range, I don't want to put a red dot on it. I need some suggestions on the type of scope I can use on it that will be usable at 25 yards and 150 yards and that is not to heavy as to throw the balance off.

Are we starting this again? If another pissinb contest is your intentiom I am not interested

Very nice magnifier.

I am just wondering what constitutes anti-gun more, not selling certain models or screwing all gun owners by gouging on prices.

Dicks is the only place that hasn't gouged on ammo prices. While everyone else, who still sells ARs, charges double for ammo, dicks still charges today what they charged 6 months ago. Come to think of it, I have been at dicks in freehold, Paramus and Edison, and I've never seen any of them selling AR, ever, they never sold pistols either. Needless to say, I will keep shopping there. Just because they don't sell ARs doesn't make them anti-gun.
