Review Korth NXS Lead

Review: Korth NXS 8-Shot .357 Magnum

The Korth NXS is a lifetime handgun capable of decades of exceptionally accurate shooting, and an heirloom that will be passed down for many generations.

Behind the Bullet: 6mm Remington

Introduced in 1955, the 6mm Remington was designed to be a dual-purpose cartridge that could handle varmints and predators just as well as it could deer and similar-sized game.

Review: Henry Homesteader 9mm Carbine

Henry’s new Homesteader isn’t a lever-action, but this 9mm carbine screams the Henry name, and the 16.37-inch-barreled, semi-auto is fun to shoot and highly purposeful.

First Look: Speer Gold Dot Carbine Ammo

Speer Ammunition has announced its Gold Dot Carbine ammo. Tuned specifically for carbine-length barrels and velocities, this 9mm Luger comes loaded with 135-grain projectiles, for an expected muzzle velocity around 1170 fps.

Behind the Bullet: .270 Winchester Short Magnum

Loosely based on a shortened .404 Jeffery case with the rim rebated to the .535-inch case head of the H&H family, the .270 WSM was the third commercial cartridge using the .277-inch bore diameter, and betters the velocity of the .270 Winchester by 200 to 250 fps.

First Look: Federal HST .357 Magnum Ammo

When hunters are toting their trusty bear-defense handguns outside of the backcountry, its often wise to change out ammunition—away from hard-nosed, monolithic rounds that focus primarily on penetrating thick skull plates and the like. Federal Premium is helping hunters do exactly that, with the addition of Personal Defense HST 357 Magnum and 327 Federal Magnum.

Behind the Bullet: 360 Buckhammer

Remington’s new 360 Buckhammer straight-wall cartridge is optimized for lever-action rifles, deadly and accurate out to 200-plus yards.

Behind the Bullet: 7-30 Waters

Developed in 1976 by Ken Waters as a wildcat cartridge, the 7-30 Waters is based on the .30-30 Winchester necked down to 7mm to improve velocity and trajectory, with a significant drop off in felt recoil. In 1984, Winchester began to produce rifles chambered for cartridge, legitimizing Waters’ dream, and establishing it as a commercial cartridge.
