Sports - 1 October 2007

I have a stainless steel barreled Ruger 10/22 with a black polymer stock and silver receiver, i use these little 1" by 1" peices of cotton patches or something like that made by Hobbs, these patches are made just for cleaning my gun.

but i bought 2 packs with almost 50 in each pack for a buck each, expensive, and i went through 2 packs in one and a half cleaning session.

I understand that you use these swabs because they dont have any stuff on them that would contaminate the gun and put hair and fuzz inside you rifle, but is there anything easier and cheaper to clean my rifle with? i cant use paper towels or toilet paper of any type? any washable rugs? my dad has this blue rag that he uses to clean his car with, that doesnt have any fuzz or stuff sticking out of it. can i use something like that? please reply.

In the future we will be moving ALOT and i want to hunt deer.. You see i will be hunting on military bases because my dad is in the military......and im knew to hunting.....we both are...Anyway i want to hunt deer and i can find game trails because i know what they look like but i may not be able to use a tree stand on this land do to i may not be ble to scout it.

And if i have to track it how do i learn to track the deer are there any books that are good? And to add to this I will not have anyone around who is a freaind who could help me do this......So what should i do?

If he scores tonight against the Pats I'm guessing he will take one of the Patriots musketeers rifles and fire it himself.

Any guesses?

I am pursuing my dream of becoming a professional Counter-Strike player but I am lacking the support I need from the public to get voted onto Team XFX. If I win I will travel the country on the XFX tour bus along with four other team members and the world's finest pro coaching staff. I will also have the opportunity to attend the Championship Gaming Series 2008 region 1 qualifier, where I will become eligible for the 2008 region 1 draft and a possible contract to play for a CGS pro team. I am so close to achieving my dreams but I really need your help to make it a reality. If there is any way that you guys could help support my cause I would really appreciate it! You can vote for me at (www.xfxteam.com/profiles/100321) Thanks for your support!

I'm running cross country currently. Wondering the best/fast way to cure shin splints. I want to get back to running as soon as possible. Stretches/treatments?

Has anyone tried Mountain House freeze dried food, both the sweet things like the freeze dried ice cream and the savory entree-type things? How is it? How does it compare to Backpacker's Pantry freeze dried food?

I was wondering about this.

The 1911 is a very old pistol design, it's been around for a very long time. It is tried and has proven itself and the design has changed very little over time. Aside from a few adjustments here and there, it's the same as it was so long ago.

Why is it that on average, 1911 pistols are quite a bit more expensive than other popular pistols? A 1911 from Kimber, Springfield Armory, S&W, SIG, Colt, etc. etc. are almost always over $1000 new.

You can get a brand new Beretta 92/96, Ruger P89, Smith and Wesson metal frame like 4006, CZ75, Glock, and quite a few other models for pretty much 1/2 the price of many of the popular 1911 company models.

What is it that makes the 1911 so much more expensive to produce than so many of these others?

I just looked at the final standings and no team had a winning percentage of less than .407 or higher than .593 (i.e., the worst team didn't have fewer than 66 wins and the best team didn't have more than 96 wins). Can any of the regular contributors here remember such a year where the teams winning records' had such relative parity? Or at least a year where no team either won or lost 100 games or more? In other words, is this the most "equal" distribution of teams there has ever been in a season? Thanks!

Is racking a pump shotgun really an effective way to encourage an intruder to leave, or does it just serve to give away your location and lose the element of surprise?

Could someone please briefly explain the differences between the two, and which might be better for a begginer (for protection)?

Can either load any .45 ammunition?

Thanks!

I was wondering what you guys would rather have. A Ruger M77 MKII Sporter stainless in 30-06 caliber or a Glock 21 in .45 ACP caliber. I know this is comparing to TOTALLY different things but which would you like better? The Ruger would be used for target shooting with the occasional hunting trip. The .45 would also be used for target shooting. The Glock would be cheaper to shoot and maybe more fun. But I do want another hunting rifle other than my marlin 30/30.

They did so well last year and now they are just as crappy as the year before last. Maybe the NFL gave them a good season so the team wouldn't have to leave New Orleans. What do you all think?

People please! All this anger...Can't you see it's tearing us apart? It makes me want to cry.

Stewart this, Jr that, crybaby who, should've when... Sometimes officials make bad calls...World Series, super bowls, and whatever basket ball has - all have been won and lost because of bad calls.

Now we are all at each other's throats. United we stand! We can't beat the all mighty NASCAR if we are all fighting like this! But this is exactly what they want us to do. They know if we are divided, we are powerless to stop them. We can get through this...who's with me?
