His wife wanted to visit Hawaii after their wedding, and they lived happily ever after when he discovered the hunting opportunities for free-range axis deer on the island of Lanai.

The nicely balanced B-14 HMR (Hunting & Match Rifle), perhaps more than any other offering from Bergara, proves the company's considerable capabilities as a rifle maker. It isn’t too heavy or bulky for carrying through the foothills, and its adjustable stock, compatibility with AICS-pattern detachable box magazines and heavier-than-average barrel make it worthy of a precision rifle match, too.

The relationship that exists between hunting and firearms throughout history is in some ways more crucial to our American identity than anything else, and there are probably more connections between the two than we realize.

Deer rifles and the cartridges loaded in them have run the gamut the last 50 years, from the Winchester 94 in .30-30 Win. to the Weatherby Mark V in .30-378 Wby. Mag. and the DPMS ARL in 6.5 Creedmoor.

Nosler’s newest rifle, the Model 48 Long-Range Carbon, is marketed to hunters who want a lightweight arm that’ll go the distance. Does it live up to the hype? Read on.

The Mauser M18, is a functional, reliable, accurate bolt-action rifle with an MSRP of $699—about 10 times less than a current-production M98.

Consider these stock options to make your long-range rifle more effective—and comfortable.

The 7-pound Long Range Carbon is a full-length, heavy-barreled rifle that’s just as suited for the sandbags at the target range as it is for slogging through snow and cedars on the crest of a mountain. A heavy barrel and light weight are normally mutually exclusive, but the combination is made possible by carbon fiber.
