What burns out rifle barrels and will the 80,000 psi of the SIG .277 Fury burn barrels faster than ever?

Mossberg is becoming one of the most respected U.S. firearms manufacturers. It’s Patriot rifles join its respected line of award winning shotguns.

The new Winchester 400 Legend straight wall cartridge matches 30-30 Winchester performance but is legal in straight wall cartridge states.

30-06 all washed up? Hardly. With today’s bullets and powder it’s faster and deadlier than ever, the equal of the 300 Win. Mag. of the 20th century.

Stalking cape buffalo on the naked plains of Mozambique’s Zambezi Delta leads to food for local villagers and more wildlife across the hunting block.

New Hornady 7mm PRC Cartridge promises best of all worlds

If the average American hunter heads out for a big game hunt, chances are he’s relying on the .30-06 Springfield to get some meat on the ground. Why? Well, because the ought-six has proven time and time again that it gets the job done -- reliably and repeatedly.

If his European counterpart picks his do-it-all rifle, he’ll choose the 8mm Mauser rifle every time.

Since its introduction in 1912, the venerable .375 Holland & Holland has been the benchmark for all medium-bore cartridges. Its caliber is the minimum for dangerous game hunting in many African jurisdictions, and with adequate bullets, it’s a sensible choice even for elephant hunting.

Tract Toric UltraHD 2.5-15x44mm riflescope with 30mm main tube and illuminated second focal plane reticle proves a precise, bright, sharp instrument for both long-range target shooting and traditional hunting.

Zeroing a traditional 30-30 load at 160-yards maximizes point blank range, but a 50-yard zero might be more effective in tight cover where shots are no farther than 120 yards. Sight-in high at 100 yards for most versatility.

The new Remington M700 Alpha 1 bolt action rifle features new trigger, extractor, bolt, twist rates, barrel steel, 5R rifling. Twist rate is even marked on the barrel. Match-grade tolerances drive superior precision

The unusual nature of pronghorns and the open habitats they roam suggest a fast, flat, wind resistant cartridge and bullet combination. Is the best a 6mm, 25-caliber, or 6.5 caliber?

The 6.5x57, Paul Mauser’s take on the 6.5mm caliber, preceded todays 6.5mm mania by more than 120 years, yet this “antiquated” cartridge outperforms many of today’s 6.5mm darlings and runs neck and neck with others.

My good friend Ron Spomer recently read a letter on his website from a knowledgeable Army veteran explaining why the MI .30 carbine was one of the best rifles in World War II, Korea, and Vietnam. I agree, and with good reason. I served in the U.S. Army for two years in Germany. I was trained as a Combat Engineer, and, most of the time, I carried my 10-pound M1 Garand. Some days in the field, that M1 Garand felt like 25 pounds! I never saw combat, but I would have carried that Garand in the field. The M1 Garand was and still is a great rifle. That .30/06 with its 8-round clip was the rifle that won World War II. But it just weighed too much.
