HatsanUSA has announced that it will be releasing .30 and .35 caliber airguns for 2015, under its new "Carnivore" line.

Available in .30  (860 fps) and .35 (730fps) calibers with muzzle velocities up to 860 fps, the new Carnivore line is designed with medium-sized game in mind. They feature Hatsan's QuietEnergy technology, which utilizes a fully integrated shrouded barrel that tapers into a sound moderator that's capable of reducing overall noise up to 50 percent.

"The Carnivore Series offers a very exciting performance feature combination, said HatsanUSA President and CEO Blaine Manifold. "The combination of velocity, energy, and number of shots sets the HatsanUSA's Carnivore's apart from other big bore airguns that are available in the market."

The entirety of the Carnivore line is manufactured in-house by the Turkish manufacturer—including its anodized aircraft aluminum alloy receiver, high-quality German steel barrel, and fully-adjustable two-stage Quattro Trigger.

The Carnivore is also fitted with an elevation-adjustable comb, three Picatinny rails, and a heavy-duty secure 11mm/22mm Weaver-style scope mount.

The MSRP for both models will be $799.

Rethinking Ragù: Venison Ragù Bianco

In Italy, ragù simply refers to a slow-cooked meat sauce. Bolognese—ragù alla Bolognese—is just one regional variation that originated in Bologna and traditionally incorporates tomatoes, wine, milk, and finely minced meat simmered low and slow until deeply rich and complex. But some of the most beautiful ragù dishes in Italy contain little or no tomato at all. This version uses axis deer simply because that’s what I happened to have in the freezer, but this sauce works beautifully with almost any species of venison.
