    I'm a newbie and am looking for a scope setup for my mossberg 702 plinkster. I was thinking of a 4X16 scope, so I can set up for 75 meters. Any suggestions, Oh and I'm poor and not that educated yet to the intracasies to the use of scopes.

    Thanks

    Hi All,

    New to the shooting scene, waiting for my PAL to arrive in the mail... the longest 3-8 weeks of my life. Looking to get into some precision shooting, going to start with a .22LR but hope to eventually get involved with F-Class shooting.

    Curious if there is anyone on here that shoots at the Valhalla Club in Truro, NS?

    Cheers,
    Mat

    Shooting Locations Other Than A Club Range

    Anyone have a target practice location less than an hour from Halifax that is not DNR or a club range ? 200 yds. (or more) would be excellent.
    Feel free to pm me if you don't want to broadcast locations in public.

    Thanks.

    I only shoot 1-3 times a year, just to keep aim (I shoot hand guns). Are there any "cheap" clubs I can join in Nova Scotia? I really dont want to pay $130/year just to shoot a couple of times.

    Ask the CFO. They will have a list of all Metro-area clubs.

    Will trade ammo for French lessons!!

    Hi from North-Western NB. I think I'm the only English guy in Edmundston actually... (gotta work on that French soon I guess)

    Anyway, I'm always willing to take people out to the local range to pop off a few rounds. I don't have much in the way of guns, but don't worry, we'll have fun anyway! :D

    Hey,
    I just got a Winchester model 70 pre 64 30 06. Serial no. 9402 mfg. in 1936. Has no bolt. I know it's nearly imposible to find one. Anyone out there have one kicking around?
