Marlin is ramping up production of their lever-action hunting rifles with the launch of the 1895 Trapper SBL.

Designed to cycle effortlessly through tubular-magazine rifles, Federal Premium’s new HammerDown ammo uses nickel-plated cases, which have been chamfered to reduce any drag or snags when being cycled in common lever-action rifles.

Federal’s new HammerDown ammo line has been ideally adapted to feed, cycle and function in lever-action rifles while also delivering the best level of terminal performance for hunting that can be extracted from each cartridge.

These five cartridges are seeing renewed interest from deer hunters thanks to new hunting laws and improved ballistic performance. 

PH Pete Swanepoel set out to Zambia on a mission to hunt with a one-of-a-kind Livingstone-Henry rifle prior to donating it to the Livingstone Museum, but a series of unfortunate events made neither possible.

Spare yourself the headache, heartache and potential dismemberment, and opt for terminal goodness in the form of Buffalo Bore’s Dangerous Game ammo.

The 1895SBL, a serious big-bore lever-action gun that can take it as well as dish it out, is destined to become another Marlin 1895 legend.

The Model 1886 remains at the top of the heap of excellent lever-action rifles. Whether new or vintage, having one in your safe is never a bad idea, and it’s a great choice for nearly any big game at ranges suitable for the big rimmed cartridges.

Traditions is well known for its muzzleloaders and has a popular following amongst cowboy-action shooters with its pistols. Expanding its product line in 2017, Traditions is introducing the Outfitter G2 rifle, a break-action single shot cartridge rifle.
