Review: Traditions Outfitter G2

Accurate, reliable and comfortable to shoot, the new Outfitter G2 break-action single-shot cartridge rifle from Traditions is just pure fun at a budget-friendly price.

Hog Hunting at Night, Newbie Style

For a novice hunter, what could be better than the prospect of filling a cooler with wild pork? How about a nighttime hog hunt using thermal riflescopes?

Hardware: 444 Marlin

Hunters looking for a gun that offers high performance with a straight-wall rifle cartridge should welcome the 444 Marlin. It functions well, provides excellent accuracy for a big-bore lever-action and accepts a scope.

Boers, Big Bullets and Buffalo

Big-bore lever-action rifles have the ammo capacity, dependability and speed to be considered ideal African dangerous-game rifles, as long as you do your part.

New for 2020: Federal Premium HammerDown Ammo

Designed to cycle effortlessly through tubular-magazine rifles, Federal Premium’s new HammerDown ammo uses nickel-plated cases, which have been chamfered to reduce any drag or snags when being cycled in common lever-action rifles.

Hardware: Buffalo Bore Dangerous Game Ammunition

Spare yourself the headache, heartache and potential dismemberment, and opt for terminal goodness in the form of Buffalo Bore’s Dangerous Game ammo.

Review: Henry X Model in .45-70 Government
