adudeuknow on "460 xvr hunter"

thanks a lot michael for the e-mail and i will ask my next question here now that i am signed up.

i think after further review i am leaning more towards the xvr hunter rather than the compensated hunter. with that said, i recently found a model on gunbroker.com that is two-toned black and stainless and also has a nice muzzle break(from the factory). are you at all familiar with that because while i feel i would be more than capable of handling the recoil without the compensator this gun really grabbed me right away. if i had the money now, i would guarantee myself a high bid. LOL...

check it out before it ends.

GPR125 on "Ammunition availability"

GPR125 — Thu, 04 Feb 2010 18:02:20 +0000

I continue to wonder at the selection, or lack therof, loaded ammunition. I've been reloading for more years than I want to think about, but components are getting hard to come by. I can understand "military" calibers being i short supply, but propellant and primers..? Government contracts can explain part of it but powders that aren't in their inventories seem short too. Or has our seige mentality caused all this? I've got more hunting loads than I'll probably ever use, but rimfire .17 caliber? First it was they couldn't make it fast enough, but pricing has gone from $8 to almost $14 a box for 50 rounds of 17 HMR. Ouch! But it's still cheaper than therapy.

ScopedIn has been live for about a year now, and I think we've reached the point where we can get some benefit from a modest set of forums. They're brand new (as of today, they're not even available through the main ScopedIn site), so there's bound to be bugs.

The forums are YOUR opportunity to share your thoughts with the rest of the ScopedIn community. I know these things start slow, but I want to see these forums become successful and useful. So, please...contribute and point out problems!

Thanks!

Mike

...no dealers, manufacturers, resellers or flippers here, please. If the demand warrants it, I'll create a separate forum for you guys.

Hi -- I'm the guy who started ScopedIn. My interest in guns and hunting is relatively recent (there's a detailed story on the main site) but the passion runs deep. In about three years, my arsenal has grown from one revolver and one rimfire rifle (both inherited from my father) to about 30 guns. I'm an avid reloader and can do a pretty fair action job on S&W and Ruger revolvers.

I've been hunting only a few times, but I've bagged a nice hog and some pheasant.

I'm hooked.

I hope you all enjoy this forum.

Mike
