MAIN Traditions Shedhorn Rifles

Traditions has introduced a new addition to the traditional sidelock market with its ShedHorn rifle. The rifle brings modern innovation to the style, while still maintaining a primitive pedigree.

The ShedHorn is available in .50 caliber, boasts musket-cap ignition and fires either loose powder or Pyrodex. A chromoly steel barrel keeps this muzzleloader light and easy to carry, while with its 1:28-inch twist, the ShedHorn can fire saboted and more modern projectiles. The Accelerator Breech Plug removes by hand for easy cleaning, an incredibly convenient feature for a sidelock. Additional features include a double set trigger, Premium CeraKote Finish, and fiber-optic sights.

The ShedHorn is available for 2023 in configurations of synthetic black, Veil Wideland camo, or wood stocks with a Premium CeraKote Finish on the outside of the barrel in various colors.

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.
