Top 5 Centerfire Rifle Cartridges of All Time

Is this the be all, end all list? Here are Philip Massaro's top centerfire rifle cartridges of all time.

Why the Ruger No. 1 is Not No. 2

There is something unique and romantic about the concept of a single-shot rifle. Especially if that rifle is the venerable Ruger No. 1.

Behind the Bullet: .375 H&H Magnum

The .375 bore is the legal minimum for dangerous game in many African countries, and with good reason: it generates just over 4,000 ft.-lbs. of energy at the muzzle, and offers a bullet with enough Sectional Density to get the job done, and done well.

Behind the Bullet: .338 Winchester Magnum

What Winchester sought to do in 1958 was to provide those hunters who pursued the great bears and larger cervids of North America with a perfect choice for their endeavors, as well as developing one the most logical choices for an African light rifle. The result? The .338 Win. Mag.

Behind the Bullet: .404 Jeffery

Why would a dangerous game hunter choose a .404 Jeffery over a .416 or a .375 H&H? Well, because it’s really cool. Let Philip Massaro explain.

How to Choose a Buffalo Rifle

What's "enough gun" for a Cape buffalo? Rifle and bullet technology is always changing, and what we considered gospel 40 years ago may need to be revisited.

Behind the Bullet: .270 Winchester

There’s no denying that the .270 has been getting the job done for over 90 years, with very few complaints.

Behind the Bullet: .470 Nitro Express

The .470 Nitro Express has proven itself as a perfect choice for truly large game for more than a century now, and it won't be going away anytime soon.
