Where to buy a NEW gun for the best price? Nashville, TN. Lexington, KY. NKY?
I am planning on buying either a Browning Silver Hunter or a Remington 11-87. I might possibly get a Browning Gold in i found one cheap enough (There is a $100 rebate for them on Browning's website). Walmart is decently priced but not all of them carry guns anymore. I am constantly traveling between Nashville, Lexington, and Northern KY (a state on its own). I currently call Nashville home though so any Gun shops here would be great. Are Bass Pro and Dicks shotguns priced well? Also i have heard sports authority sells them. Thanks all! Any opinions on the differences between the guns would be appreciated also!

WalMart is cheapest, they can order it if it isn't in stock. I would buy the Remington but both are nice weapons.

I agree that Wal Mart is usually the low cost leader. However, keep in mind the sales tax in Tennesee is 9.75%!!!! That is huge. Head into Kentucky and it goes down to 4% (unless it has changed recently.) I don't know much about Northern KY. I have a home in Owensboro. It is 2 hours from Nashville. Near the Evansville, Indiana border. I fully recomend Whitakers Gun Shop. It is 20 minutes out of Owensboro. It is in a small town called West Louisville. I have bought many guns from Mr. Whitaker. His service and prices are unbeatable. he has a huge inventory. And knowledgeable family members in the shop. I don't even price shop when buying a gun these days. I just go to whitakers and buy it. I have never been disapointed. Just remember, if you are not a KY state resident, you will have to transfer it to a dealer in TN. That may tack on $25 bucks. depends on the dealer you work with. I prefer to work with local gun shops and not oversized retailers. Just my personal opinion. As previously stated, both guns are fine implements. I doubt you would be disapointed with either. I will offer another option to consider. The Benelli Super Black Eagles are the best in my opinion. I have both the SBE and 11-87. The SBE is more money, but ohhhh, so worth it. I am a lefty, and really appreciate the effort benelli put into designing a great gun for us left handed shooters. Best regards. Shoot safely.

What's the best travel route from NC to Cincinnati, OH?
I've traveled from NC (Raleigh-Durham area) to Cincinnati before, but every driving direction website has me going on these random small roads in Ohio. Does anyone know if it's quicker to go another way, possibly through Knoxville or Lexington?

We were going to drive from Cincinnati to Raleigh on President's Day weekend but ended up flying. Due to the flight delay, we probably would have gotten to Raleigh faster if we drove. When we looked at things on the map, it looked as though if you go on I-77 across to Winston-Salem and then drive north to Virginia and cut through West Virginia and into Kentucky and then up to Ohio, it would be better. The other option is to go through Knoxville. I think the first method of driving through Lexington was how my friend used to drive when she went to visit her brother at Duke. You can always go to mapquest and see what directions they give or go to a AAA place and get some maps. Also the path you take can depend on how adventurous you want to be. If you have not been to Tennessee, you can take that path. If you are in a hurry, then the first method should be better.
2 :
I-75 north.

www.mapquest.com Will give you maps, alternate routes, estimated times, step by step directions from door to door. Sometimes has small errors which are impossible to find until you are in the situation. But it's free and immediate. Try it.
4 :
The by-ways through that part of Ohio is faster than taking the interstate through Tennessee. My family made that trip many times when I was a kid (Durham to Cincinnati), and we tried going both ways. In Huntington, WV, you should get off of the freweay and hop onto US 52. You can take that all the way into Cincinnati, or you can get onto OH St Rt 125 in Friendship (just west of Portsmouth). 52 and 125 will both take you into Cincinnati (almost to the same area too), but 125 is more direct and it has more 4 lane road. If you want to save a minute or two here and there, follow all of the directions that mapquest gives. But taking US 52 in Huntington, then getting onto OH St Rt 125 is quite a bit easier and a lot less random. You will save about an hour taking those by-ways versus going through Tennessee and Kentucky. It is also a much more pleasant drive.

I personally have done it both ways, and it ends up taking a decent bit less time doing it on the back roads. Remember- these are back roads, and except when you hit the center of the fedw small towns you'll pass through, you're generally moving along at 55 MPH (if you're not speeding). Its hard to justify going 100 miles out of your way, each way, to go an additional 10 miles an hour (it would take you 10 continuous hours of driving to make up the difference, and you'd use an additional 3-4 gallons of gas- which, if it makes you have to fill up sooner, could end up making it take even longer using the fast route). You can take I75 straight up to Cincy fom knoxville though, if thats how you really want to do it.

cruse if you have a group off people you can get a special on that plus everything is covered once you pay drinks food everything plus the cruse makes stops so you can get off look around so even better if you travel by boat all you need is a passport card that comes out to a total of 30 bucks cheaper then a passport book but if its your first time getting a passport your looking at 55 bucks at the end totally worth it I myself is going to take a cruse and we are taking a trip to Jamaica, Miami, Cancun, and a few more places for only 460 a person for 7 days all i can say is you cant beat that

It depends if you have someone with you. But I think train is the cheapest and fastest too.

What's the best/relatively cheap way to travel to Kentucky?
I'm trying to figure out a relatively cheap way to get to Lexington, Kentucky, from New Jersey. From what I've found, flying will cost me over $300, the Greyhound bus takes about 24 hours, which is too long, and Amtrak doesn't go to Lexington. It's an 11 hour drive, and I don't think my car can handle it. Any one have any ideas? Such as another train or bus system I might be able to transfer to when I get to Kentucky?

I will probably sound philosophical but it depends on what you count as cheapest. I'm reminded of the fellow that took such big steps to save his $10 shoes that he split his $20 pants. Examples: walking is cheap but you have to eat and sleep. Do you not count that? A car can cost just gas, but do you also consider the cost of owning a car at over 30 cents per mile? If you hitchhike you still have to sleep and eat for several days. If you can find a cheap airfare, you can avoid needing to buy expensive food or finding a place to sleep. But that means avoiding airport food. I would guess trains don't get you close enough on either end. A bus is probably the cheapest way if you book ahead. You will have to sleep on the bus, deal with transfers, and to save money take food with you. You can pack things like crackers, cheese and peanut butter sandwiches which will last a few days. Try http://www.greyhound.com seven day advance purchase is $99 and a bus leaves Aiken at about 7:30pm and arrives in AZ about 2 days later at 5pm. You would spend 2 nights on the bus and need 2 days of food.
