“all purpose”

Steyr Arms has announced that it is offering a limited edition run of Camo Scout Rifles in three different camouflage patterns.

After decades of creating turkey loads designed to deliver the goods at several dozen paces, this spring Federal Premium offers a line of ammo for when things get up close and personal.

The degree to which waterfowl camo patterns have evolved over just a couple decades is rather remarkable.

How much treestand or elk mountain cred is Trijicon due given how well its rock-hard battle-rifle sights have served U.S. troops at war? That was the obvious question when the company diversified into all-purpose riflescopes a few years back, and it remains a key issue with the recent introduction of the AccuPower, a four-scope collection largely geared toward big-game hunters.

Fast target acquisition and magnification-change capability set the stage for Zeiss’ new Victory V8 illuminated riflescope line.

The Sharps Rifle Company (SRC) developed the .25-45 Sharps cartridge and introduced it in 2012. Not to be confused with Shiloh Sharps—a company that makes historically correct blackpowder cartridge rifles—SRC is for all practical purposes built around this one cartridge, which is designed to replicate .250 Savage ballistics in an AR-15. Four years after its introduction, most hunters have never heard of the .25-45 Sharps. That’s about to change.

Hunters making Irish stew can’t go wrong with neck, hock, flank, or even cubed center or eye of round roasts. Deer, moose and elk are all flavorful and will stew down to tender morsels that make superb gravy.
