Yea that's him. He said one day while shooting you want to learn how to shoot skeet. I thought I'm shooting skeet no one taught me. So we either shot in the morning 7-10 am or 6-12 pm at nite. I think I shot 30,000 practice targets in 89. I loaded 700X when they came in 12 pound cans. I have two tha...

Thanks for the info on the show. I've just watched the show theres 3 on tonight. I lived in Anchorage for about a year in 1985. Wish I stayed but no work. Never did go hunting but did a lot of fishing. Wish I had gone hunting. I went to Africa and found out it was cheaper to hunt there than Alaska. ...

Never shot the North South but National Capitol was my club I practiced at when I lived in Maryland. I ran a 100 straight 12Ga with 7/8 at my first registered state shoot in 89 at NC. I also shot practice at IWLA out side Poolsville, Md. $2.00/round. Had lights use to shoot till midnite. I started o...

It was really nice to hear of Skeet shooting. I shot a lot of skeet starting 25 years ago. When everything was a lot cheaper. Shot was $9.00/bag by the ton delivered if you ordered at least 3 tons. I shot a Remington 3200 with briley tubes. Also a Remington 1100. I bought a Berreta 682 trap gun with...

I forgot to mention the P.O. Ackley manual are interesting too. I'd be careful with the data but it is very interesting to read about all the wildcats.

My favorite manual was the Speer manual with the Stage Coach. Some of the loads were hotter than Elmer Keith's.

This is cool I also belong to the SAR on both my mom and dad side. My fathers side landed at Jamestown in 1620. I spent a lot of time seaching. I found a lot of information just takes time lots of time. I also tracked down a lot of Great Aunts that where members of the DAR.

It was so nice to view the TT. Never went but watched the race every year on tape. Joey Dunlop won more races than anybody else. the North Western is another race before the IOM in Ireland. I rode myself for 21 years my last 2 bike were a 87 Honda VFR 700 which I put a lot of miles on about 65K mile...

I use 2 97 Winchesters to hunt pheasants in South Dakota, sometime a mod 12. I have never owned a 870 but when I worked as a gunsmith starting in 1980. Every 870 that came in for cleaning. I hardly ever had to replace parts in em. I do have a Rem. 1100 12 ga. Skeet gun I truly love to shoot. The 870...

I hardly ever hear about Winchester 95's. I own 2 original 95 carbine .30/40 Krags. I love to shot em. I'd like to hear from you guys.

Thanks so much for the info. I had read about the conversion along time ago. But couldn't remember were. It doesn't look to hard.

My first SA was a Colt I bought in 1975 for $300.00. I was living in Colorado Springs,Co. and spent months trying to find a 45 Colt. Every gun shop had 357. I still have it.
My first lever was a marlin 35 rem sold it.

Has anybody used wolf primers I see they are alot cheaper about $20.00 a thousand.

Howdy I've been a life member since 1975 when it cost $150.00.I have been a Benefactor Life for 10 years. Now I just recieved in the mail today Life memberships for $300.00. I don't like it when the NRA sells life members to raise money. Harlon Carter was one of the greatest NRA member we ever had a...

I want to get a 1876 rifle but not sure what barrel length to get. I plan on hunting and general target practice. Caliber 45/60.

Howdy I really like my New Frontier 22. I bought mine brand new for $75.00 back in 1976 dealer cost. Although I don't shoot it much anymore.
