    Enter the Minefield of Double Rifles from Baikal

    Well you did good then. I have seen them on Gunbroker for 1,000 and up. Did you manage to find a load that works well for both barrels to consistently shoot tighter groups ? I personally am looking at the Sabatti double rifle. I have read good things about the rifle and am happy about the idea...

    Enter the Minefield of Double Rifles from Baikal

    They are ok. Handled a few and fired one in the very same caliber. They are not a gun that I would shoot beyond 50-60 yards. They do NOT have the accuracy as a well made double rifle does. You can regulate the barrels on them by utilizing the action bull screw that is under and between the...

    Mr Slough. I never offered my support to you or your views and I certainly never offered my help to you in anyway. Being a College Professor you would think that you should have some reading comprehension. Have a great day Mr. Slough. Best wishes in all your future endeavors.

    South African rangers kill two rhino poachers in Kruger National Park

    Then obviously you have not ever seen what a child molester has done to his victims before he murders them. And obviously you have not seen the other end of a firearm being fired at you in hopes of ending your life. And obviously you did not have any friends or family that were killed on 9/11 in...

    South African rangers kill two rhino poachers in Kruger National Park

    If th If perhaps the countries that support a rhino and elephant population would possibly allow the legal sale of rhino horn and elephant ivory, maybe ...just maybe then we would see a decline in poaching of both species. There has to be severe punishment for any poaching crimes. Living in...

    Suppressors for heavy game rifles

    Hi Pete......Yes you are right about the noise bothering others when you touch it off, but I got around that concern for myself and my guide......I gave him a spare set of ear plugs and made sure that he was behind me when I shot. I of course did wear plugs as well. I know for a fact that...
