I was perusing some of these "subjective opinion" threads this morning waiting for an airplane (.458wm = classic and non-military cartridge hunting battery threads, and another subjective opinion thread on a different site) and I thought I might throw up a question for the peanut gallery... If...

I recognize not all species are the same, nor all countries, but for rifle hunting, I'm seeing guys talk about 150-300m plains game shooting, and 20-50yrd DG... In my head, I'd think I'd rather want a bit EXTRA range on DG with a handgun, since the stopping power wouldn't be there, and of...

Is there a market for converted 458wm Hawkeyes? I'm thinking about doing another one, just for the sake of doing it, but my wife says she'll only "approve" if I agree to sell it after, since we don't need another paperweight holding down our safes - we're set for DG rifles. Not looking to make a...

I'm considering throwing an extra twist into my current rifle project, but I'd like a few opinions before I dive into it. I have a couple take-down 22lr rifles, and a takedown Marlin 1895, and since this current rifle project will be a pair of rifles with a pair of extra barrels to go with...

Are there any state/countries that limit magazine capacity for rifles? I'm looking at 5+1 bolt rifle - didn't want to get in trouble with any "5 rounds or less" restriction.

As a lot of you have helped me out with already, I'm working on a matched pair of rifles for my wife and I to use for PG and DG - both Ruger Hawkeye's in 338WM and 458WM... The question that occurred to me recently - as we're hunting, especially DG, are two rifles, or rather ONE DGR and one...

A lot of you fellas have been helping me out on my thread about Ruger Guide Guns, so please forgive my duplication here. That discussion definitely helped me iron out my direction for the 338wm as PGR, but I thought I'd ask specifically about the 416Rug vs. the 458WM in standard length actions...

I overlooked this sub-forum and posted the same question in the "Firearms and Ammunition" forum last week, so I apologize first for my oversight, secondly for my repost, and third, for asking such rudimentary questions! SO... I'm hoping you guys can point me in the right direction and get me...

I'm looking for advice and wondering about complications in hunting Africa with a handgun? While I've hunted North American game with all manners of legal archery and firearms equipment, I've generally considered myself a rifleman above all others. However, in reviewing my track record, if I'm...

Sorry if this gets kicked around a lot - I tried the search function and didn't come up with much... I posted a while back about I'm no stranger to big bore rifles, but I'm looking to build a new one soon (starting in spring, I suppose), I've owned a couple 375H&H's, a 416Rig, 458WM, and a...

New to the forum, hoping I can get REAL advice about an upcoming hunt, cutting through the gun mag and internet safari expert dogma that seems to run rampant everywhere else online! I'll apologize in advance if this topic gets kicked around too often here, I did a few different forum searches...
