Lucky Duck has introduced a new electronic predator call, designed for the run-and-gun hunter. Termed the "Roughneck," this portable, remote e-caller features 150 preloaded sounds and a 2,000-sound capacity, all capable of being delivered at a high volume. In an effort to live up to its name, the Roughneck boasts a silicone cover for protection, and to dampen the sound of its hard plastic housing accidentally knocking into things. Its remote, the new LD3X, features a relatively large screen, 10 levels of brightness and backlit buttons for when the light gets low. The call runs on 10 AA batteries and is compatible with Lucky Duck's rechargeable lithium-ion battery pack, while the remote runs on three AAs. For more information, check out luckyduck.com. MSRP: $499.99

Marlin has introduced the first ever lever-action rifle chambered in 10mm Auto. The Marlin Trapper Series Model 1894 in 10mm Auto is launching in conjunction with Hornady Manufacturing Company’s new LeveRevolution 10mm Auto ammunition.
While its most recognizable gun remains the ever-futuristic-looking AUG tactical bullpup first made in 1977 and still used by militaries worldwide, Steyr also makes handguns and hunting rifles. Its Pro Hunter III SX rifle is an all-around hunting rifle and a great example of Steyr quality, a trait much easier felt than described. I’ll try it anyway.
One of the world’s most productive copper mines is also one of Arizona’s most reliable sources of Rocky Mountain bighorn sheep. The bighorns are not shy about entering the Freeport McMoRan open-pit mining operation—near Morenci, Ariz.—but predators are. As a result, there’s no natural check on sheep population growth.
