My brother lives in Colorado and hikes near where they are releasing wolves. He is considering buying a couple of handguns for he and his wife to carry while hiking. They are not hunters, but grew up around guns. He is thinking about .38 due to low recoil. I am leaning toward .357 for a little...

I'd been looking at this revolver at the gun shop in my local range for some time. Finally decided to bite the bullet in August. Took me untl a couple of weeks ago to get ammo ( 38 S&W). It's a sweet shooter in SA, although the DA trigger is pretty stiif. Colt Police Positve Special. MFR 1913

I've copied the URL for an article on a company re-introducing the Tasmanian tiger. The company is also trying to re-introduce the wooly mammoth. Who else would like to hunt either one...

I just bought an old Winchester model 12 in 16 gauge. It had been stored in a closet for more than 50 years and was pretty rusty. Took me an hour to get the barrel off. I cleaned it up and shot a few rounds of target loads before I closed the deal, but I think I'll work it over a bit more and...

Those who know me, know I love to hunt. What many don't know is that - other than upland birds, I'm not fixated on any particular species...in other words, I like to hunt, but if I don't get to hunt a particular animal, I'm ok. Except for upland birds - especially pheasants, but quail also. I...

Hello all, Time for my annual pheasant report. I was able to hunt a couple of good spots in Kansas this year. Unfortunately, camera problems limited our pictures, but here's the update On December 21, a group went hunting at the Kuhrt Ranch in Edson, KS. 3 adults, 4 boys and two dogs. We came...

I'm planning to retire an elderly .30-30 that was given to me by my stepfather the year he died. It has been in a rack behind the seat of a pickup for many years, has been my go-to gun for varmints, hogs and even a couple of deer hunts. I think it's time for it to sit on the mantle before...

I bought a NECG peep sight for my CZ550 in .375 H&H and just recently had the change to take it to the range. A couple of the comments on Brownell's when I bought the sight said the sight made the gun shoot very high and I found this to be the case as well. I can't get the sight to shoot less...

Here is the newest addition to the family, with his big brother sitting proudly behind him. :):) Top - My CZ550 Safari American in .375 H&H. Had it for a few years, mostly shooting at paper. My only complaint is the sights, but I've decided not to scope it. I'm waiting on a new fiber optic...

I just ordered a new CZ557 Carbine in .30-06 with iron sights. Had to sell a Remington 7400 in .243 (to a friend whose granddaughter hunts) and a 7600 in .30-06 to make room. I kept the BSA 3x9x40 off the 7600 to scope the new rifle, but I'll probably use the iron sights a couple of times before...

A wife was doing the taxes while her husband watched the game on TV. Shortly, she came into the living room and told him, "I'm going to take a deduction for depreciation on you - you're only half the man you used to be." Without looking away from the game, the husband replied, "It won't work...

Being from Kansas, I go home each year to see this nice older couple who feed me and call me son....I also preached for several small churches in western Kansas during the late 90s and early 00s who still support some work I do in Greece each year. Every year I've gone back, with few...

Although I enjoy this site immensely and dream of one day going to Africa, I'm mostly a small game and bird hunter - especially upland birds. As I look forward to my annual visit to a friend's ranch in Kansas for a round of Pheasant hunting with friends and their kids, I was wondering how many...

I saw (and participated in) a thread a while back that asked for your three favorite rounds. I have a different question - what three guns from your current collection would you keep if you could only keep three Here are mine Mossberg .22 Semi-Auto Winchester 94 Remington 870 (20 gauge)

As in my previous post, I really like my new CZ550 in 375 H&H. The express sights are wonderful. As I am comfortable with open sights out to 150 or so yards and I understand that most dangerous game hunting is done at much closer distances, I am considering not adding optics on this rifle. It...

Just bought a new CZ550 in .375 H&H. I love it! Shoots well and recoil isn't really any worse than a lightweight 30-06 Planning an overseas dangerous game hunt with friends within the next five years - We're thinking Buffalo in Australia. I know a lot of folk on this site are old hands, but...
