Q: which one is the better hunting rifle? Remington 700 30.06 or a mossberg 30.06?
i just need to know in case i choose to go hunting also i want to find out which is the better rifle
A: The Remington 700 bolt action rifle is a much better choice… Its well built, known for accuracy and for me have been a pleasure to use….

That being said — Lets talk about the Mossberg 100-ATR and Mossbergs 4×4 rifles…
I know nothing about the Mossberg 4×4 bolts actions so cant comment….
I do own a Mossberg 100-ATR in .308 and 30-06…. They are not super accurate but I will say if your on a budget – and want to hunt deer they are perfectly adequate for that…. I have successfully taken deer with mine….. No the 100-ATR will not win you a trophy in a Competition target shoot —- Yes they will take deer with no problems at reasonable distance’s — I have dropped deer to 175 yards with my 100-ATR so they are quite well suited for that…..

Q: What Rifle Is Good For Deer Hunting (Remington Model 742 30-30 Or Winchester Model 94 30-06)?
Hello,
I have two rifles one 30-30 and one 30-06. What one is better for deer hunting and safer the Winchester 3030 model 94 or the Remington Woodsmaster 30.06 model 742 automatic?
A: Of course, the 30-06. The 30-06 is ballistically superior to the 30-30 cartridge.
Q: Is the remington 7mm mag. a good hunting rifle and if not, why?
I have a remington 7 mag and i’m pleased with its overall performance, but, i’m itching for another rifle and don’t know if I should spend the money or not?
A: It would be hard to beat the 7mm Mag. for versatility. If you’re itching for another rifle why not get “brush gun?” Maybe a handy lever action or autoloader for woods hunting where that long old bolt gun gets in the way.
Q: what wud be the best distance if i zero my scope for my 22 remington rimfire rifle for hunting?
A: As I mentioned in a previous post the 50yd zero is best for these small caliber rimfire bullets. Anything more than 50yds will start hurting your True zero as factors such as wind and other climate variable change day to day and your adding more yardage to create a wider margin of error. Sight in on a calm day of moderate tempature at 50yds and your zero will be optimal.
Your bullet will not drop too much at 100yds from 50yds and most game you can kill with a 22lr will be in the 50-100yd max range.
Use the 50yd zero on anything .223 caliber and under unless you’re tuning a specialized varmit rifle made for long shots across open areas
Q: what can a .223 remington rifle hunt for in california?
never used a .223 befor so dont really now what it can be used to hunt in california. so could i get some help?
A: You can hunt everything but elk. Make sure and use the largest possible grain while hunting for deer so you dont end up wounding the deer. Also make sure you have a nice shot behind the shoulder so you dont end up wounding your’e game.
Q: is the Remington 700 a good hog hunting rifle?
why? why not? what would you use. what is common? (bolt action)
is .308 good for hog hunting with this rifle
A: No knock on the 700, but I’d only want any bolt action when hog hunting if you’re spotting them in the open such as grassy areas between palmettos stands. (Yes, I read that you wrote “bolt action” but if you’d permit…) If you’re in the brush, tall grass, or, as I’ve seen the most, camping on a pig run, you’ll want the quick pointing and second chance shot of a semi-auto carbine. I think that an AR can excel here, especially in 6.8mm. A reflex sight and you’ve got CQP–close quarters pork. Even in .223/5.56 you’re shooting cheap rounds with no recoil. You’d have to be awfully good at cycling that bolt to keep up with even an average shooter on an AR with a quality red dot that doesn’t keep your eye in the scope.
Edit (and rebuttal): No offense, Richard, but if you’ll notice I’m not speaking of “out west”. In Florida, Georgia, and South Carolina you won’t get a 200 yard shot at a hog. A 700 is not a brush gun and an AR carbine is not a plains gun… nor is it a “plasitc gun” anymore than the Reminton 700 SPS. Synthetic furniture doesn’t make the AR or the SPS an Airsoft rifle. (Hate ‘em that much, huh?)
Q: remington “hunting” rifle?
fellow hate mongers
i just purchased a totally bitchin remington 770/ 30.06!
I own a shotgun, and am familiar with m16s, but not my new model.
i SUCK at reading manuals, and this one has really tiny letters and pics…
is there a sight (i found one for my shotgun) that will show me how to disassemble and reassemble my remington 770? i really want to find video
also, regarding the scope,
its already mounted, how difficult is that to sight?, and is it something that gets thrown out of whack any time the weapon gets bumped, or i take it apart?
A: All I can say is go to the Remington site, and check the FAQ and see if their is anything pertaining to the rifle. Also, you could probably get a better scope than the factory scope it comes with. Try Leupold.
Q: Picking a hunting rifle? Mossberg or Remington? Explain please.?
A: Remington Model 700 series Bolt Action Rifles are the #1 selling rifle on the market today. The Remington’s are still being manufactured whereas the Winchester Model 70’s haven’t been in production for years. The second most popular rifle is the Savage Arms 110 series Bolt Action rifles.
Mossberg makes a decent rifle for the money but it is ranked 3rd under the Remington and Savage rifles.You aren’t very specific as to what exactly you want to know here, so the most I can tell you is that the Remington is the higher costing rifle followed by the Savage then the Mossbergs. The new production Remington’s,Savages, Mossbergs are being made in Standard and Magnum rifle calibers that will suit your purposes, not knowing what you intend to hunt with it. Some additional questions in detail would make it easier for us to help you even further….
Q: where can i sell my hunting rifle online?
I have a Remington .270 rifle with scope. I was wanting to know if there is such a place online maybe similar to ebay where i can sell it.
A: Despite the fact that Craigslist’s rules prohibit selling guns and ammo, I see ads all the time for those items. It is not illegal, just against the rules.
If you list a “Remington 700 Rifle in .270″ it will likely get deleted by someone, however if you simply list a “Model 700 .270″ in the Sporting goods section, hunters will know what you are offering.
Q: Is a .308 remington 700 sps tactical a good deer hunting rifle?
A: It works just fine, however you dont really want to be walking miles with it. So good luck
Q: Remington 715 30-06 Hunting rifle?
Is it any Good?
A: The Remington 710 and 715 are junk.
The 710 was invented at the behest of walmart who wanted the absolute cheapest rifle that could be made and were basically planning on getting people to buy it by cashing in on Reminton’s good name.
The 715 was a slight improvment on it, but not enough, still junk.
Originally, Remington sold the 710 and 715 to all sorts of different gunstores, however, now you only generally see them in walmart, and other big gun sellers (gander mountain, bass pro, etc) as big box exclusive…because they have figured out that budget hunters with very little firearm knowledge go there and buy based on brand name and price tag.
For a budget rifle, look at the Marlin XL7 series (or XS7 if you want a 308, 243, or similar shorter cartridge)
Savage’s Stevens 200 is a good buy, but I don’t care for the grey stock and the recoil pad is pretty darn thin and hard.
For a little bit more, the Weatherby Synthetic Vanguard 399 (called 399 because originally they priced them in such a way that most gunstores could sell them at 399, now the price is more like $429.99) is an EXCELLENT gun for the money.
Q: Has anyone shot out of the remington 7600 pump action rifle, and can they tell me how good it is?
I want to use the Remington pump action rifle for pig hunting in scrub at close range, and in open areas where I may need to take shoots out to 250 yards. Are they accurate at long distances? What size scope would you suggest I fit to this rifle, which would be suitable for both applications? Which caliber?
A: I think 250 may be stretching the range a bit on a pump, but then again you will need to do some range work on a target to see how she (and you) shoot at that distance.
Since I think you will wind up with a realistic range of under 200 yards, I’d suggest a fixed power 4x or 6x scope like the Weaver Classic K4 or K6. You get what you need for that range distance and you also get a lot better optics than a variable power scope in the same price range. Most people don’t need variable power scopes anyway.
No one ever regrets getting .30-06, however .270 is a fine caliber as well.
Q: is the mod 7400 remington in 243 a good auto loader and hunting rifle i got one in a trade thanks?
A: My dad bought my first deer rifle in 1982, it was a brand new Remington Model 7400 in .243 Win, it had a Tasco 4X40 Wide Angle scope and a nice leather sling. I killed my first deer with it at age 12. Since that time I have taken many whitetails, including some very nice bucks. I have also taken many wild hogs with it. 2 years ago I replaced the old scope with a new Leupold VXII 3-9x 40. It now belongs to 10 yo son. This rifle, at least my example, is very very accurate. It is capable of shooting better than 1/2 MOA. It favors the Federal Premium 85gr Barnes TSX. My son killed his first deer with it at age 9. It is a part of our family. I have many great memories of hunting with my dad, and am now creating some with my two boys. I would never ever part with this rifle. I think you have a good one.
Q: What do you recommend for a hunting rifle?
hi
im 14 years old i live on a cattle ranch in canada. i have began hunting. i have 2 .22’s and a 12 gauge shotgun. what would you recomend as a high powered hunting rifle? i have narrowed it down to two guns that i can have thru many hour of research. what gun should it be the remington 7mm magnum or a 30-06 of some sort?
well yes i miseed a few key points. i already have a trusty 30-30. and my needs for a riffle are mainly for shiping pests from 300yds+. and for defence from local pests (in september a very close friend of mine was killed by a bear a mile from my house. and i have found cougar and bear tracks within 1000 feet of my house.
A: * Your Best choice is a Remington or Savage Brand bolt action rifle in 30-06 Caliber because you have a greater variety of bullet weights to choose from for Hunting Varmints, and Big Game.* Magnums are not needed or necessary to Harvest Big Game in North America.* The 30-06 has earned its name and reputation after making 15 consecutive one-shot kills of American Game.*
Q: I’m considering buying a Remington 710 rifle in .243 . Anyone have any good/bad experiences with one?
I plan to use it as a varmint rifle, but it may end up as a first hunting rifle for my niece. Also, does anyone know if the trigger can be adjusted the same way the trigger on a Remington 700 can be?
A: I’d highly recommend the 700, not the 710. Out of all the remington rifles that have to come behindthe counter at work, it’s usually something chambered in the 710 rifle.Any chamberings in the 700 series rifles are much more reliable.
