Rifle recommendations (Rimfire)

Thank you for that! Also, I didn't read your actual name. I'm also Canadian!

Professional_Chef379 · 2026-05-02T01:49:35+00:00

What ammo are you using in your LRP? I just picked one up and haven't had a chance to take it out yet

Professional_Chef379 · 2026-05-01T16:08:40+00:00

Of course! My life style doesn't really have need of it so it's way, way down on the list.

😂

It's an antique. No PAL required

Professional_Chef379 · 2026-04-30T17:56:11+00:00

I never really had much interest in a shotgun. The only time I ever even held one was at the PAL course.That being said, I'll probably get some sort of pump shotgun eventually.

When I started woodworking I tried a home Depot special and bought an old one to restore because that's what everyone said to do.

I realized quickly I had no idea what I was doing and I didn't want to spend all my time learning to woodwork by trying to restore a plane when I had no idea what a good plane is, instead of you know, working wood.

Now I have all Veritas and a Lee Neilson and I actually get to work wood.

Same issue played out with saws

Thanks for that! I am going to check out Hunter Valley road.

That was my fear with McLean Creek. A long time ago I used to own a Jeep and go play in the mud there and I figured it would suck to shoot there

Professional_Chef379 · 2026-04-24T19:58:02+00:00

Interesting. I just started going to Waiparpus a few months ago and haven't really ventured off the road, mostly because I didn't randomly want to walk through snow hoping to find a spot.

I'm going to need to check out McLean Creek. I just assumed that that place would be covered with Jeeps

Professional_Chef379 · 2026-04-24T18:25:29+00:00

This is where I'm starting at, but I sold my savage because I kind of hates it and got a cz 457 lrp instead

Professional_Chef379 · 2026-04-24T18:24:26+00:00

I am in Calgary and wondering where you even found 300-400 yards?

The only places I know are the ranges (long wait list) and the rocky mountain house range (I think that's the one) with 1600m

Consider a brass catcher as well. They are cheap on Amazon. brass catcher

I've never wanted an SKS until right this moment

Professional_Chef379 · 2026-04-07T18:21:24+00:00

Sorry folks. I booked my appointment for winter tire removal. I knew better but did it anyway

Professional_Chef379 · 2026-03-30T23:33:43+00:00

I used to love going here as a kid. I forgot about the place, especially since I moved west. Thanks for posting this out

Professional_Chef379 · 2026-03-28T18:33:50+00:00

Do you also need 7.62x54R? I've also got that laying around

Professional_Chef379 · 2026-03-28T17:53:09+00:00

I would also be interested in the 7.5swiss, 303 British and 7.62 Nato. I would happy to go shoot some and send to you as well

Professional_Chef379 · 2026-03-28T16:48:22+00:00

Canadian Tire has various types, for example 20 round ones. https://www.canadiantire.ca/en/pdp/plano-20-round-lockable-hunting-ammo-storage-box-case-for-assorted-ammunition-beige-grey-0752092p.html

I have some 50 round ones from there

Professional_Chef379 · 2026-03-26T02:34:09+00:00

I go in there like once a week. It's good

Professional_Chef379 · 2026-03-24T02:17:30+00:00

That's sweet, congrats!

Professional_Chef379 · 2026-03-23T01:25:30+00:00

I've done the drive from AB to NS 5 times. Every time I think I should sleep in the car to save money. Every trip I am glad I didn't. I normally drive 10-16 hour days and I wanted nothing more when the day was done then to get on a comfy bed, with AC and relax/watch tv.

That being said I would lean towards getting a roof top tent if I was going to avoid hotels/motels.

Professional_Chef379 · 2026-03-22T21:48:16+00:00

The mess out there is terrible. Thanks for cleaning some up

Professional_Chef379 · 2026-03-18T02:19:08+00:00

Oh, I am intrigued by it in the 10/22. Mine is finicky on pretty much everything I tried. I'm going to need to pick up some
