undefinedIf you need a new bow for this season, now is not too early to begin the search. And whether it's a compound, recurve, long bow or crossbow you like to draw, the Archery Hall at the Great American Outdoor Show has numerous models of each on display. BowTech, Diamond, Hoyt, KodaBow, Martin, Mathews, Prime, PSE, TenPoint and many more make the show a great place to begin your research. Take your pick, and then take a short walk down to the end of the hall for a test-fire.

But there's more than bows here. Sights, arrows, broadheads, quivers, rests, even a drop-in replacement crossbow trigger from TriggerTech line the aisles of the hall. There are tree stands, targets, backpacks designed especially for bow hunters, camo patterns for every environment and a couple hundred gallons of buck lures and cover scents.

You may not be hunting until this fall, but you can start your bow season right now at the Great American Outdoor Show. We can't guarantee you'll kill a wall hanger this year, but you'll find what you need to make it happen in Harrisburg.

Hardware Review: Browning BAR MK 4 Hunter

First, the Browning Automatic Rifle addressed in this article is not the renowned 1918 BAR of military fame. I’ve actually seen an American Rifleman editor hunt hogs with a reproduction 1918 BAR. While it was a spectacle to behold, it’s probably not the optimal choice for the deer woods, but hey, who am I to judge? The Browning BAR we’re talking about in this article is the iconic hunting rifle.

Choice Ammunition—Montana’s Handloaded Factory Ammunition.

Today, we have many more projectile options than we’ve ever had. However, there are still some combinations that aren’t readily available, and some of our older cartridges have become all but unobtainable. Enter a boutique ammunition shop from Montana, the brainchild of Mr. Jon Wemple: meet Choice Ammunition.
