The holiday season is upon us, and the editors of American Hunter have assembled a handful of gift recommendations for every outdoorsman on your list to fit just about any budget.
Ruger now chambers its popular AR-556 MPR rifle in .450 Bushmaster, offering hunters all of the benefits and fun of an AR while gaining twice as much umph downrange.
Leupold's new VX-Freedom riflescope line provides many of the same benefits as its more expensive scopes for substantially less money. Available in 14 variable-power models with four magnification ranges, five objective diameters and six reticles, all VX-Freedom scopes have 1-inch maintubes, which keeps size and weight reasonable.
Henry’s Big Boy Steel Carbine has traditional lever-action lines but retains Henry’s signature cutout in the magazine tube, through which cartridges are loaded and unloaded. Though somewhat unconventional in appearance and function, it makes the lever gun infinitely easier and safer to unload at hunt’s end.
Henry is donating 20 special commemorative rifles for auction with 100 percent of the proceeds benefiting conservation groups across the United States.
