Hunting - October 2007

The barrel is brand new stainless steel and I don't believe it to be rust b/c it is a brighter orange and spreads inside the grooves of the barrel very easily but then is a pain to remove.

Plenty of meat is available in the shops, so why kill live game? In the past it was different, but do you think that shooting at clay pigeons and targets would be the right thing to do?
Look whats happened to the animals in Africa because of the greedy rich's bloodthirsty "sport".
Culling in some places makes sense--it goes on in Scotland at the Queens balmoral grounds. I'd like to hear your opinions, thanks.

Ok, I made my decision to go with the Remington 870 12 gauge pump shotgun for hunting and home defense. (I live in Kansas)

http://www.walmart.com/catalog/product.do?product_id=4665590

Is the 20" barrel good for home defense and hunting? I am going hunting with my friends and not exactly sure what they will be hunting, most likely a mix of different animals. Anyway, I thought that I could just use a barrel for home defense, and when I go hunting I can purchase a seperate barrel and just change them accordingly. What would be a good size barrel if the 20" is too short for hunting? What would be a good size barrel if the 20" is too long for home defense? And finally what other home defense/hunting accessories/ammo should I purchase while buying the gun? Thanks!

I am looking at purchasing a single-shot rifle to add to my collection. The Ruger 1 look like great rifles but I'm trying to be a little price conscious.

I was thinking about the NEF/H&R Handi-Rifle in either .270, .308, or .243. Maybe even a niced varible power scope.

Any information and suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

Slow roasted goat or homemade wild boar brunswick stew?

I like cooking the goat wrapped in bannana leaves and spices in a ground oven.

The brunswick stew is cooked all day in a black pot outside. Makes all the neighbors really hungry.

If I served either would you come to my party??? If so, then what would you bring? Creativity gets the 10.

Does anyone have one of these? What do you think? I'm interested in what you thought of the rifle itself, accuracy, comparison to other Marlins, and comparison to the .308 Win. cartridge.

Theoretically it seems like a good balance, but a lot of people seem to not be satisfied with it--either leaning toward a 9 mm or .45.

I'm considering a .40 for a first handgun since it seems it would be a good balance between the .9mm and .45.

Would you agree with this or is it better to stick with the .9 mm or .45 (if so I'm leaning toward the .45 --is this reasonable?)? Thanks.

Hi. I'd like to know what are the basic things, transcending personal taste, that one should look for in a big-bore hunting rifle (for using on African Safari, the Big 5, for example).

I do not know too much so please keep it simple. It seems that a telescopic sight is a must, as is a carefully fitted firearm.

I understand calibre and ammuntion types are personal taste to a certain degree but what are the main players? Also, what rifle brands are always heard of in these circles?

Bolt Action only? Magazine size? Stock type? Following an earlier question I have learned that I like a stock called 'Machlinner (sp)', where the whole barrel is encased in wood- could you have a rifle like this?

Please help a complete novice understand how it works. Thanks!

Hi, I have long been interested in Africa having Rhodesian roots and read about the 'Big Five' hunting whenever I can. Whether or not I am pro-or-anti hunting is irrelevant.

I know that hunting some animals is beneficial to the local environment and may benefit the hunter's own community (if they're from foreign fields) in terms of research and education. But what about hunting the Big Five?

Any educated answers are welcome but please don't use this to rant about your own views surrounding the ethics of hunting in general. I am interested specifically in the results of hunting the Big Five. Incidentally, how easy is it for an American or European to go and hunt the 5 these days?

Also, as an aside, is it possible to get hunting rifles these days that have wooden flanks covering the whole barrel, as with the M1 and .303 infantry rifles of ww2? Can you provide a link or name, and what are the pro's/ con's of this design in terms of hunting, if still used?

Thanks!

I just bought a new Desert Eagle XIX with a nickel finish. I am really proud of it and immediately thought that "it's a shame that it comes with these cheap crap grips" but all the manufacturer and other after market sellers seem to offer is rubber or dark colored wooden grips. For such a popular gun there is surprisingly little in the way of accessories. Does anyone know where I can pick up some nice grips for this gun. Pearl, Ivory, or anything else nice that I haven't thought of, I'm open to anything. Even feel free to plug your shop or site as long as you have my grips.
