  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

A good friendly thread; I'm a bit late back here.

Paper mostly, and when requested by non shooting friends; ground-hogs.

I shoot a number of different .22 rimfires and have one pistol in .22 and a bunch of rifles.
Ground hog/Paper rifle is a Remington 78 with a birch stock that I recently installed a BDL hinged floor plate on. It has a Tasco Silver Antler 4 x 24 target scope on it. Great shooter.
I also have a sporterized 7 x 57 Mauser with double set triggers. Like a laser.
.38 S & W Webley-Enfield (1931), still tight and works great.
Chinese Norinco clones of the following; 1911 .45 5" barrel with adjustable sights; CZ 85B clone in 9mm, and waiting on the transfer for a NP58; Sig-Saur clone in .40 S & W. I have yet to shoot the .40, but love, and shoot well both the 9mm and the .45.

Most of the ammo I shoot in centerfire except for the .223 I handload; .223 I only handload my varmint loads using the best hollowpoint boat tails I can get at the time. With groundhogs, these leave very little to kick back down the hole.

For target practice and/or training I shoot mostly paper targets. One instructor I train under sometimes does have some steal targets. When I hunt I go for elk. I may try hunting wild boar at some point.

For weapons I shoot, I have a Glock 19 (my carry weapon), as well as a Glock 17 and 34, I have several AR pattern rifles chambered for 5.56 NATO (16 inch barrel, 1 in 7 twist) and a FAL/FN (7.62 NATO). For my hunting weapons I have a Ruger Super Redhawk (.44 Rem Mag) and a Savage Arms bolt action (.300 Win Mag and .308 Win)

That is some serious fire power.

It sure is!

Sif, what model is your savage, and how do you like it?
