  1. The Phantom, when you get that rifle built you owe it to yourself to try the 208 gr. A-Max in it. They sure fly nice.

    Not sure if “Iberia’s” post was meant the way you think it was meant, I know I’d like one of those for Xmass.
    You’re absolutely spot on about the “old” cartridges. The last gun I ever bought was a Tikka T3 Lite in 6.5×55 SE after decades of using an old sporterized 96 Mauser. Absolutely love the cartridge and can now comfortably hand-load it up to where I was always a little uncomfortable with the 96’.
    Same goes for your .300 Win analysis. The most accurate gun I own is an early 90’s Browning Abolt that out of the box shoots Federal Premium 180gr ¼”MOA nearly every time. Mines for Elk out to 500 yards, which is my personal ethical limit on any game animal, the gun can do it, but I can miss so my rangefinder keeps me in check and I don’t ever guestimate over 2 feet of holdover.

  4. Thanks Knight 99. The reason I included coyotes is that occasionally they come right up to the house and on one occasion two of them followed me while I was mowing with the ride-on mower. I felt something watching me, stopped, turned around and saw them and headed for them. They slowly loped off, not too concerned.

  5. The NDP only want their buddies, the criminals to have guns. Only criminalize citizens, while freeing monsters is the tune they sing.
    As I read on one blog the other day. They weep for the wrong doer with injustice because they deem poverty & justice the same. It is not. Justice should be based on reality with facts not ones station in life or lack of.

  6. The fact that it is indeed restricted will keep the Kimveer Gill types from going on a rampage.
    Oh wait… you mean silly names and classification schemes don’t work?

  7. The NDPEE are a little touchy about guns after their patron saint, Saint Jack got caught with that little geisha girl blowing the smoke off his gun. And what was the real name of Marc Lepine there Miss Wendy Kookier and your lib/ndpee friends?

    Heh, heh good story.
    Well with the situation you described, I’d go a different way with a small rifle. I really like a little Marlin lever action in .357 magnum for a summer camp gun. Great little light weight and inexpensive unit with plenty of stopping power for coyotes even close up black bear with hardly any kick (recoil). The range ballistics nearly duplicate a .22 rimfire. Super fun guns to shoot, even for kids and ammunition is pretty affordable and plentiful (less plinking cost than a full sized hunting rifle). The biggest difference for a “coyote hunter” is its 100 – 150 yard effective shooting range. Where I live most coyotes are way out there and running if they see you first.
    Anyway nice little light weight units for around $500.00, there are a couple of manufactures. Mine is a “Marlin 1894C” if you google. They should sell or be able to get at your local gun shop, well worth a look and feel for what you described.

  11. @ Phantom: all you had was a 1000 rounds of ammunition? All this time I thought you were serious about firearms…
    I use a 1000 rounds on the range just to get warm.
    😉

    Gosh, you are the coolest, Phatom. No doubt there are some small dead animals who got very firm reading your list.

  14. Oh, I have an excellent life. I just find it an amusing diversion to read about how nerds waste their money on guns when they could be spending it on something much more practical…like getting their dicks stretched.
    Big guns = compensating for deficiencies in anatomy.

    There is the root cause of your mental illness.
    A little condolence for you, I have plenty of money to waste, you need not be so concerned about it.

  16. knight99…iberia would have money to “waste” if he was not living in Mommie’s basement and got off welfare and got a job.
    I have a .223 Russian sniper rifle from 1942,given to me by my granddad who fought over there.Never registered,never will be.Bolt action,but I guess the lefties would call it a massive automatic assault weapon.And the name is Garhbi,a muzzie a**hole the NDPeers want more of in this country.

  17. Oh. And I will give iberia the benefit of the doubt.Surely it knows the difference between sinlge shot,bolt action,semi-auto,and full auto.

  19. That rifle looks like a Mini-14 with an aftermarket stock.
    Since when is the Mini-14 restricted?

  20. Iberia “Big guns = compensating for deficiencies in anatomy”
    It takes a leftist like you to consider being born without a penis to be a deficiency in anatomy. However, you are correct that women like guns. Guns provide safety, security and independence. A list of what leftists don’t want for women.
    There is also the dark side; the matter of domestic violence to be considered, but the left doesn’t want to look at that. You are correct that weapons allow people to compensate for their anatomy.
    “1984 issue of the Justice Quarterly says that in domestic violence, women compensate for their size by using weapons. In 6,200 domestic abuse cases, 86 percent of women who assaulted men used weapons: guns, knives, boiling water, bricks, fireplace pokers and baseball bats. Only a quarter of men who assaulted women used weapons.”

  21. Folks, it is very instructive to watch the politicians, NGOs and media axe-grinders who doggedly hold on to the amply disproven myths of gun control. These are the self serving idiots who will lead us into an authoritarian state. so far we have police cheifs (which are in reality police state senior bureaucrats and the closest thing we have to fascists) We have the demented left and the statist left who would love to build a soviet-like bureaucratic tyranny, and we have the paid shills (NGOs) who have enriched themselves by pimping draconian government policy to give it a false air of public acceptability.
    Lost in all this recent anti gun hysteria are two facts:
    1) In poll after poll a vast majority of Canadians see the registry as wasteful or unjust and want it scrapped.
    2) Of the few planks in the Tory election campaign scrapping the registry has been a constant policy. The people returned the Tories to a majority to do what they promised because in minority the opposition was blocking the progress of bills which reflected the majority will of voters.
    The public want this registry gone. They elected a government which promised to do that. 10-15 Police bureaucrats, a dozen Statist socialist politicians and 6 venal special interest bed wetters don’t. Gee, how is democracy best served?

    “Since when is the Mini-14 restricted?”
    It’s not, Rugers “Tactical” version, meaning dressed with an ATI pistol grip stock and shortened barrel is restricted in Canada because it has a 16.12″ barrel length, which is 2″ shorter than Canadian definition of a “Long Arm”.
    In fact the ATI stock is readily available to buy as an aftermarket stock in Canada, in reality it’s a little goofy with no proper cheek weld, lacking 100% solid lockup between stock and forearm, and a little front heavy loosing the rifles original quick swing balance.
    In a nutshell amongst all the other criticisms on this thread, the guns a dog, and what the NDP want to flash Canadians as the “scary weapon” poster child.

  23. Knight 99 –
    Huh, I didn’t know Ruger came out with a tarted up short-barrel version of the Mini-14.
    I’ll stick with my Swede Mauser and AR15.

  24. Iberia said: “…how nerds waste their money on guns when they could be spending it on something much more practical…”
    Dude, you -pay- for that? BWAHAHAHAHAAAAA!!!!!

  26. Phatom the dolt is obtuse again…unlike you, Phatom, I don’t have to pay for anything because I don’t need to compensate.

  27. Ha ha ha,
    I love the fact that they list a 35 pound bolt action rifle as some sort of crime gun, only goes to show….
    Please someone find one crime, just one ever committed with a rifle such as this in human history.
    More NDP parliament members have committed serious and dangerous crimes than a gun such as this, funny that.

  28. Iberia, you brought it up. I just figured you were projecting again.
    By the way, did you know that your holy prophet Sigmund Freud “associated retarded sexual/emotional development not with gun ownership, but with fear and loathing of weapons”? Uh huh he did.

  29. Langmann said: “@ Phantom: all you had was a 1000 rounds of ammunition?”
    In my defense, I was kinda poor at the time. Few hundred rounds in .308, .223, 6.5×55, 8mm, .303, it adds up. I’d mostly shoot .22 at the range, because I’m cheap and because out to 100 yards it doesn’t make much difference.

  31. The bottom line is that the useless gun registry and Canada’s law abiding gun owners do not commit the crimes that the leftoshpere blames on gun owners and their guns.
    The left commits the crimes!
    They advocate the recreational drug use in society, they advocate the welfare dependency in rural aboriginal & inner city black communities, along with light sentencing for violent offenders including sexual predators and murderers.
    They have no right to tell the majority of law abiding Canadian citizens that they have to regulate and give up their rights to property, self defence, and culture for the problems they have created. That is why you are out and the Harper government is in, so sorry, so sad for you.

  32. Ah, the NDP…where ignorance is bliss and common scense is forbidden. Their motto reads something like; Everyone without motivation is entitled to anything, a free for all- damn the costs. When the party is over & the bill is put on the table.. run for the border and blame the Conservatives, for not have more money to shell out.
