If you’re in the market for a cartridge that will do double duty in both the hunting fields and on the target range, with a bit more horsepower than the Creedmoor provides, the 6.5 PRC is worth a hard look.

The B-14 Wilderness Terrain is an extremely accurate rifle that is built to withstand the ruggedness of the backcountry.

That new hunter you've been tutoring may be in love with a lever-action rifle. Alternately, he may think he absolutely needs a .30-caliber magnum to "cover all the bases." But it's up to you to talk him into making a reasonable purchase when it comes to his first big-game rig.

Here are five top-notch backcountry rifles, all of which are lightweight and superbly designed.

Our Muzzleloader of the Year, the CVA Paramount, is built for long-range hunters.

Marrying state-of-the-art technology with Swarovski’s top-quality lenses, coatings and manufacturing, the dS 5x-25x-52mm P has an integrated ballistic calculator and laser rangefinder that delivers precise shooting solutions from a single optical device.

By this time of year, coyotes have seen it all and heard it all. The standard rules—how far to walk before setting up, how long to stay on a set, what calls to use—do not apply. If ever there were a time to throw the dogs a curve, it is now. It’s time to change the rules.

Don’t quit the hunt when coyotes get call-shy. Instead, use these methods to find out what else has their attention, and then set up for an ambush.

The Paramount is far more than your average blackpowder rifle. Designed for shots at 300 yards and beyond, it delivers the performance of a centerfire rifle in a gun that can be used during every season except bow season.
