HOW?! It doesn't sound like paper?

What are you looking to pick up?

[Spawn-Inc]

what i think he has done is just used alot of glue and or something along those lines. unless he just took plastic and glued 1 sheet of paper to them, either way alot of work.

i'm liking picking up a Savage Mark II TRR. i would get the TR as i don't care for the rail, but it's the same cost as the TRR and the store only has the TRR.

What do you mean by 'paper?':think:

Check out Gunbroker.com

I have a savage .22 bolt action, it's a neat little gun. What will it be used for? Plinking? Target shooting? Rodents?

I feel that price is a little high for a bolt action, especially a .22... I noticed it's magazine fed so why not go with the semi-auto Ruger 10/22? There are TONS of accessories for those bad boys.

plinking, target, long range target, or as far as i can get. and some testing with blastics gel :)

no semi's for me yet, i want bolt. it's overpriced i know, but i don't mind paying extra vs waiting. the other savage i was going to go for was the FV. it's only 300, but everyone says it's a youth ish size stock. i can buy the TR style stock for about 130 shipped but for an extra 80 i will pay to get it now.

A .17 would dominate a .22 in any test, especially long range target shooting.

Sorry, not trying to talk you out of anything, just makin' sure you get what you're looking for.
.17's are smaller but cost more than your average .22 rounds.

Woah! Those are really cool paper guns.

I have a .22 that is pretty much silent if you use sub-sonic bullets, and is much quieter than most .22s.

It's a bolt action, uses any sort of .22 round (long, short, etc.) and dates to the 1920s. I don't go shooting that often. It's pretty accurate. What are the laws on selling a firearm?

I have a bull barrel Savage .17HMR with an aftermarket match trigger set to just over 1lb and a full floating barrel with a bedded action. Get a .22 for plinking / squirrel shooting as its much cheaper to shoot. $1.5-$2 per 50 rounds VS $10 per 50 rounds with the .17

The .22 caliber (1 caliber is .01 inches) has more mass than the .17 but is a much slower bullet. Generally (99% of the time) a .22 is a non jacketed led projectile that will continue to move down range after exiting its target or nicking a twig or limb. The .17 on the other hand is generally a jacketed hollow point and comes in both plain hollow point as well as ballistic tipped (plastic tip filling the hollow point). The .17 almost always disintegrates upon impact. I can shoot an empty coke can and there will be 1 entry hole and 4-6 exit holes. If you shoot a gallon jug of water to simulate a hydrostatic shock similar to what it will experience when entering flesh you will destroy the jug, but can recover a lot of the bullet fragments. The .17HMR has almost a perfectly flat trajectory and in wind less than 5mph its extremely accurate.

I bought my .17 for this reason. I use to target shoot with a local gun club and would enter matches every few weekends. In addition to punching paper, I could take it small game hunting and would not have to worry about the bullet continuing to travel after impact. It has enough take down power to stop a raccoon in its tracks with a head shot and is accurate enough to have 1/4" groups at 50 yards.

Right now I'm shooting a 40's era Remington 22 bolt-action (left hand bolt, cartridges go in a little pipe slung under the barrel) but with Winchester Wildcats (extra powder charge, brass jacketed lead bullet) I've dropped a coyote with it. Bullet tends to tumble when it hits, and not break up.

I want my granddad's .308 with the thumbhole stock. That's a nice gun for when it absolutely, positively does not need to enter your yard again.
