      Any Experience With Bergara B14 HMR?

      I bought one from 2A Sales & Supplies a little over a year ago. It’s my most accurate rifle. Great trigger and accepts Remington 700 magazines, etc. I put a Vortex scope on it. I haven’t shot it this year yet due to COVID restrictions, but I’m dying to get out and shoot it again. Mine is in...

      4-H shooter goes to Naval Academy

      Most counties in MD have a 4-H shooting sports program. The Howard County 4-H Bullseye program shots archery, small bore rifle and shotgun at AGC. The program is safety focused, but MD 4-H does have a statewide tournament for each discipline and sends a shotgun team to the 4-H Nationals...

      Boy Scout Leadership training (NRA)

      BSA does require NRA Instructors in the discipline being shot; rifle or shotgun. They also require an NRA trained RSO who needs to separate from the discipline instructor. The easiest way of satisfying this is to check the NRA website below and have a couple of parents become instructors...

      Please Fix My Roof

      If he doesn’t have insurance, it absolutely should be your concern. If he or one of his crew is hurt on the job without workers comp insurance then you are liable. They’re twenty feet in the air and not tied off. I wouldn’t let them on my property. They’re rarely deals out there. You get...

      Any place with large selection of CZ/Huglu O/Us?

      If you want to demo a bunch of shotguns and you’re ever in western Illinois near St Louis, I would definitely recommend a visit to the World Shooting Complex in Sparta, IL. Most of the manufacturers have shops there with demo guns right on the range. Beretta had free demo guns which they would...

      Any place with large selection of CZ/Huglu O/Us?

      I also highly recommend Joel Etchen Guns in Ligonier, PA. I’ve been shooting a Beretta 391 semi-auto for trap, skeet and sporting clays for while now, but I have been wanting an nicer over/under. A couple of years ago I was with my son at the Scholastic Trap Nationals in Sparta, IL. They have...

      Dumping the semi, Getting a Sporting O/U; Opinions?

      Definitely switch hands. As a 4-H shotgun instructor, we have had many kids show up at practice "knowing how to shoot", but missing most targets. When we check their eye dominance, the are often cross eyed dominant. They are usually reluctant to switch hands since dad or granddad taught them...

      6.5 creedmoor, what do you have?

      Mark at 2A Sales talked me into this rifle and it's awesome! I put a Vortex Viper HS in 6-24x50 on mine and I love the set up. So far I've been shooting factory ammo and it's been sub MOA, even with the cheaper stuff. I'm going to start working up some rounds on my press and experiment with...

      CZ 455 Ammo help

      I’ve tried about half of the ones on your list in my CZ 455 and my rifle likes the Eley Club in the orange box best. If you use Ammo Seek or just shop on line you can find it a lot cheaper than retail. YMMV though.

      want wife and kids to try shotgunning

      The Howard County 4-H Bullseye Club has youth shotgun practice every other Sunday afternoon at AGC Trap Field #1. In the warmer months we mix in rounds of skeet and sporting clays at PG Trap & Skeet to fill in the off Sundays. The club has trained instructors who teach safety and shooting...

      6.5 creedmoor, what do you have?

      I recently picked up a Bergera B14 HMR in 6.5 Creedmor and put a Vortex Viper HS in 6-24x50 on it. It’s my new favorite rifle. Once sited in, it shoots great and as advertised. I love this set-up.

      Spyderco Positron $99.95 at Knife Center

      Thanks for the tip. I just ordered three of them this morning; one for me, and one for each of my sons for Christmas. We've been fans of the cheaper Kershaw flippers, but with that deal it's time to step up to a nicer knife.

      School re-districting in HoCo?

      Both of my sons went to Bushy Park. It's a great school with good teachers and a lot of conservative like minded parents. You'll be happy there. When I moved in 2006, I made sure that no matter how they sliced up the redistricting map I'd still be in one of the better western Howard County...
