    Ladies and Shotguns

    Several years ago I went to my 28ga, about all I shoot now. Going to start the girl friend on it too. But unless you reload, I do, it can get pretty expensive with a 28ga. If she wants a shotgun I'd think the way to start is with a 20 and target loads. I used to load 20ga for the ex and...

    Not a good start for my patriot or my first mossberg customer service experience

    Generally speaking, a wipe down with an oiled rag stops surface rust. Bad screw. First time it ever happened? Not that uncommon. Customer service all I can say is when I needed it they were right there for me, no complaint. Gun not shooting well for a non handloader? Well you should have been...

    Not a good start for my patriot or my first mossberg customer service experience

    I ordered a wood stock soon as I got home with mine new. Got it and one screw was to short. Called Mossberg and a new screw was sent out right away. The plastic trigger guard broke where the front guard screw goes in. Called them and a new one was sent right out. The new one broke in the same...

    .308 Winchester powder question

    I don't recall ever firing a match bullet from a 308. I have fooled with 150, 165, 180 and 200gr bullet's though. Settled on the 165gr Hornady interlock for everything many years ago. They were called spire points then. I have used H335, IMR 3031, BLC/2, IMR 4895, W748 and probably a lot other's...

    Rifle sling

    I've got a couple like those shown above and they do work. But I hands down favorite is a leather military sling, got two of them. With quick detachable swivels, they move to what ever rifle I'm using at the time!

    Photo hints

    Got that in an e-mail this morning, great read. I really get turned off looking at some peoples photo's of dead animals. I'm at a point myself where I won't take a photo of a dead game animal anymore, rather remember them alive. But some of the stuff I see other's post really turns me off bib...

    6.5 creedmoor 25-06 .243???

    I've got a Patriot in 243 and would recommend it in a heart beat. I got it new with one of those unbelievably ugly plastic stock, $299. Got home and called Mossberg and ordered a wood stock right away, I think it was around $145. You can get the Patriot with a scope mounted for under $500. Very...
