      Inexpensive deer hunting rifle

      Couldn't answer that one Delmar. I have not personally shot any hand cast, handloaded slugs before. I have not stepped into the World of shot shell reloading yet, Yet.

      Inexpensive deer hunting rifle

      Well here is my 2 cents! If you go with a shotgun you will save some $$$ on the firearm, especially if you find a used one you like. I see used shotguns of every make, model, caliber, and setup you can think of this time of year, usually cause people need some extra cash or plan on upgrading...

      What to do with bad brass/spent primers?

      I have been saving all my bad brass to recycle it, but that is a slow proccess for me. Even as much as I reload I still don't have that much.

      The $350 Mosin Nagant.

      Gave $50 for my M44, no import marks, perfect dark walnut stock, and I still wouldn't ask more than $125 for if I did get rid of it, which I won't. That guy needs to quit smokin up all his profit!!
