Diehard predator hunter? Check out these options.

Varmint and predator hunting has never been as popular as it is today. From gophers to coyotes, high volume shooting to long range sniping, no one cartridge is best for all.

Just in time for the peak of predator season, Japanese manufacturer Howa recently teamed up with Nevada-based Legacy Sports International to introduce the lightweight Mini Action rifle.

The Ruger Hawkeye Predator FTW is a great multitasking crossover rifle. It’s fine for most general hunting, well suited for long-range hunting and capable of long-range precision target shooting. What more do you need?

Legacy Sports International has announced that its Howa Mini Action will be available in 6.5 Grendel for 2015, making it the first bolt-action of its kind. Current available calibers include .204 Ruger, .222 Rem. and .223 Rem.

With a suggested retail price of just under $400, the new bolt-action Compass is Thompson/Center’s entry into the budget-friendly hunting rifle market.

For 2017, Ruger will be offering its American Rifle Predator edition available in a package deal that includes a Vortex scope.
