How can it ever be construed that privately owned property can become a "public place" by virtue of (part of it) not being ones normal place of abode?

Not really a "brand new" cartridge at all. Was introduced by Winchester at the 2019 Shot Show to address a perceived problem of straight-wall-cartridge-compliant deer-hunting states requirements. Yes, a 45-70 would fit the bill but why knock yourself around when something with the ballisti...

Very fast, and programmed for pretty much any cartridge case. If that wasn't good enough, it's also able to calibrate for your cases. Worth checking out -...

I have a feeling that the variety which you attach to your firearm, and pay a tax for, will be a suppressor. The other type, of all sorts of shape and size, which you shoot through might best be called a "sound moderator". On the topic of moderators, I saw one, a long time ago, that was ma...

Re: 1" at 1000- did I read that right?
I have an old (2010) Nightforce scope catalogue that shows a group of 2.815" at 1000 yds. Best 5 of those probably would have been around the 1" mark.
Wasn't just shooting for group but for score; 100-4x.
I'm sure that a better record has been set by now.
