SHOT Show's 10 Best Hunting Guns

After fondling more than our share of new deer slayers and duck killers at the 2011 SHOT Show, we've picked the ten best hunting guns for this calendar year.

Blaser R8

Like its predecessor, the R8 utilizes a straight-pull action that doesn’t require lifting and rotating the bolt.

Ithaca Model 37

The all-American made Model 37 remains true to one of this country’s favorite pump guns, except today’s 37 is available in 12-, 20- and 28-gauge.

Connecticut Shotgun Mfg. Company A-10 American

With the A-10 American over/under, Galazan is manufacturing a world-class shotgun unlike any seen here before.

Winchester Model 70 Safari Express

The Model 70 has undergone a number of transformations, and the current Model 70 made by FN in South Carolina is the best Model 70 ever produced.

Montana Rifle Company Model 1999

The millions of American riflemen smitten with the Mauser 98/Winchester M70-platform bolt-action have a new suitor in Montana Rifle Company.

Five Quality Shotguns for Under $500

Hunters have said it loud and clear: We are tired of reading about shotguns that cost more than a monthly mortgage payment. We heard you, and we’ve delivered.

Beretta A400 Xcel Sporting

The author believes the A400 to be a better shotgun than the A391 because it's lighter and has even less recoil and faster cycling.

Fausti Class Over/Under

Lightweight and stream-lined, the Class handles well in the field, and is affordable for any serious shotgunner.

Browning A-Bolt Stalker Review

Just like its brethren, the A-Bolt shotgun features a rifled barrel, premium trigger and all the features hunters cherished in Browning's A-Bolt rifle.
