No One in Huntingdon County?

[VarmintExpress]

No one? With Alexandria, Trough Creek and Standing Stone sportsmen's clubs, there's no one here?

Ohh no, people are here - there are just not too many of us.
I think I have seen maybe 3-4 other Huntingdon members here.

I am a member at Shenecoy and Woodcock Valley.
Formerly a member at Alexandria as well.

I forgot all about Woodcock and Shenecoy.

I am sure there are even more clubs that are hidden around that even we do not know about.
Welcome to the forums, enjoy the info you can find here - there is a ton of it!
If you have any questions, feel free to ask!

Doesn't look like a very active thread, but I'll post anyway.

Newbie gun guy here. Moved to the country for the first time a few years back and I'm starting to get the gun bug. I was little schocked at how expensive guns are...but nothing you can do about that.

I just bought Remy 700 ADL Varmint Camo at Dick's in Altoona for $449.
26" heavy barrel, synthetic Camo Stock & cheap arse Simmons scope.

I wanted a nice varmint gun, and debated over 223, 22-150, or 243. There are NO shortage of opinions on which caliber is best - everyone has something to say on that one. Here is my thought process.

I wanted something that I could SHOOT a LOT with spending loads of $$ on ammo and wearing out my arm. One point for the 223.
I already have a 700 SP 30-06, so I didn't need another deer rifle - scratch the 243.
I really looked long and hard and the 22-250. In the end, I ended up with choosing the 223. Just got it sunday and haven't sighted in the scope yet. My early opinion: me likee. That 223 is just the right caliber for rabbits, groundhogs, and anything else I can see from my deck...

I originally went in there to buy a Savage, but the Remy's were on sale and the Savages were not.
