Field Test: Carlson's Choke Tubes Cremator

Unless you’re a waterfowl hunter, you don’t often want to talk much about choking. Sets a bad tone. But wingshooters by and large make their bones on the strength of two things (their own talents with the scattergun aside): good shotshells and quality choke tubes.

Field Test: Browning Apparel

Browning Hell's Canyon Speed line consists a dozen garments including outerwear, and all are available in A-Tacs camo. For all but late-season western deer and elk hunting, it can’t be beaten.

Field Test: Browning's Ammunition Line

The Browning name is a staple in the firearms community; it’s impossible to deny that John Moses Browning had an incredible effect on the development of many of our iconic designs. The Browning label—and its associated BuckMark logo—has long stood for dependability and reliability, and those traits have extended into the new line of Browning ammunition.
