Home defense shotgun
My scope can zero multiple rounds and I need to zero it with Wolf as well. Point of impact is about 2-3 inches different and it does not group quite as well. Federal supposedly makes a good 7.62x39 round I need try at some point.

Re: Home defense shotgun
Keith, if you see one at that price, please just let me know and it will be sold quickly. I have a FFL dealer here that will handle a sale in one of 2 ways. If they can find a CD to purchase themselves, they will sell it to me at the sticker price I find elsewhere, or they will handle the transaction for me for 20 bucks to do the transfer.

Re: Home defense shotgun
That is a really spiffy shot right thru the middle of the 1. What caliber bullet did you use for that shot? That looks smaller than even the .177

People keep asking if I'm back and I haven't really had an answer. But now, yeah, I'm thinkin' I'm back.

Re: Home defense shotgun
I need to go shooting, so I need to buy more ammo to do that. I'm ok for what I have right now, but it wouldn't bother me to have some more 9mm and .45 ACP, and some .38. Heck, some .22, too, for that matter. If the price ever gets back down to the dirt-cheap price they used to be, I'll really stock up, even though I just have one .22 pistol.

Re: Home defense shotgun
Hey, if you have plenty of ammo it is an incentive to purchase a few more guns to go with it

Re: Home defense shotgun
I well remember them for $0.79, but I wasn't buying .22's as a kid, so I didn't pay attention to them. I remember buying for less than $1.
$1.99 for a box is a darn good price. Academy Sports here has Aguila for $2.49 for a box, and I thought *that* was a good price.

Re: Home defense shotgun
www.sgammo.com. .22LR 40 and 36 gr starting at 0.04/round. Doesn't include shipping, but it's pretty reasonable. Good small business operation on this site, I like them.
FWIW I can't get it wholesale cheaper than the bulk sites sell for at retail. I could if I order a truckload. Hmmm.......People keep asking if I'm back and I haven't really had an answer. But now, yeah, I'm thinkin' I'm back.

Re: Home defense shotgun
Winchester 40 gr .22 LR HP 500 cartridge box selling for .0779 a pop. I can step onto my back porch most any time of the day and return with the meat course of supper for 16 cents. That is pretty dang cheap.
Thanks for the link. They actually have ammo in stock at good prices and they promised to get it out the door tomorrow, maybe even tonight.
I like doing business with independent operations, specially mom and pop stores.seeya

Re: Home defense shotgun
They're a good one. Very fair prices, if not outright the cheapest, and great service.
I may buy another bunch of 22 just to be safe. Price is still a good penny per round higher than normal, but that's not crazy.People keep asking if I'm back and I haven't really had an answer. But now, yeah, I'm thinkin' I'm back.

I've sold a couple of Sako rifles, but never fired one.

Re: Home defense shotgun
I’ve been doing some reading about the 6.5 Creedmoor.
https://www.outdoorlife.com/5-things...or-whitetails/
I am intrigued by this round as a replacement of my .30-‘06 as a deer hunting round. A flatter shooting round with less recoil becomes more desirable as one gets older. When you choose a rifle you’ll have to give us a report on your thoughts.

Re: Home defense shotgun
Exactly why I'm looking at it. Read nothing bad about it. Accurate and flat. Limited recoil. Considered to be an improved 308. I've not never shot either so...
I only have 7.62 and 223. So I want one rifle that will reach out to 300 yards with some knock down power.
I'm 40, far from being older (in my mind at least lol). But my shoulder and really my entire right arm has some nerve damage. All this talk about 12 gauge in this thread makes me hurt.
It will be a while before I get one. Probably fall or maybe even Christmas. But hopefully fall. Currently looking at the Tikka 3x lite or the Tikka CTR. I've watched a lot of YouTube lately on the 6.5 rounds and those seem to be the cream of the crop in my price range.
