Off Season Lets Talk Guns
Been a while since we had a guns n' ammo discussion.
Some of you are AR shooters Im sure. Im looking at a Colt 6920. Will be my first AR. Picked up a Glock this fall and really enjoy shooting it. Any feedback on that weapon? Anyone else been in a buy/sell/trade mood with hardware? Part 2: http://www.chiefsplanet.com/BB/showthread.php?t=293623 Last edited by Bearcat; 07-28-2015 at 06:06 PM.. |

We've got some orders out now for "lead" from the place in Winfield, but if I need to I will buy enough "lead" to run our brass out. My wallet is cringing at the thought. |

Yeah, I got the department for some rounds, schools, training, etc. I'm just now thinking I should go into brass saving mode and then start learning to reload.

Ok.
So I'm in the market for a solid, affordable rifle. I'm leaning .308 right now, but I'm open to suggestions. I don't want anything much bigger, I don't want anything high end, just a solid, straight shooting all around gun to shoot anything from pigs to whatever I want. Assume my range to be 100-300 yards for most of what I'd ever do with it and suggest a reasonable scope to go with it. Does anyone have an opinion on the Mossburg rifles out now? |

And a really nice scope for the money is Redfield (as long as its a US made one) or a upper level Bushnell. You get what you pay for with optics. |

I am a big fan of the 308 round, for economical bolt action look into the Remington 710 or 770 comes with a bushnell cheap scope for about $400 out the door. For a better rifle grab a Rem 700 in 308, whichever style you like best. Throw a leupold vx2 ($300ish) or vx1 (rifleman? $150ish) and call it good.

While the risk of limited ammo is a valid concern, they are also the most abundant and likely to continue to be made in bulk for military. If bad shit ever happens it will be easier to find more ammo in those calibers than the unique ones.
