“handgun cartridges”

Kimber is one of the big dogs in 1911 handguns, and when the company mated its 5-inch 1911 with a Trijicon RMR red-dot sight, the resulting KHX Custom (OI) turned out to be an excellent hunting handgun when chambered in 10mm Auto.

This classic cartridge is a perfect fit for most handgun hunters. Observant hunters will immediately recognize that the .41 Magnum offers notably better external and terminal ballistics than the .357, yet is slightly more shooter-friendly than the .44.

While there are many handgun hunting cartridges to choose from, these practical all-around choices rise to the top.

Federal Premium now offers a wide variety of unprimed brass for a full range of common rifle and handgun cartridges, including the new .224 Valkyrie.

Winchester Ammunition has announced the launch of the new Winchester.com, which features improved technologies and functionality, an enhanced ballistics calculator and a redesigned gear store.

Is the HK45 a reasonable choice for the deer woods? Contributor Jay Pinsky takes a closer look to find out.

While there are many classic wheelgun calibers that date back to the late 19th century—the .44-40 and .45 Colt foremost among them—the relatively modern .44 Rem. Mag. has a well-deserved place among the most effective developments for a revolver, and will undoubtedly remain there for our lifetime and beyond.

There have been many visionaries in the firearms industry—the John Brownings and the Peter Paul Mausers—but we firmly believe that if for nothing other than the .357 Mag. and .44 Mag., Elmer Keith deserves inclusion into that group. The .357 Magnum is a sound and useful design, one that will continue to be enjoyed by shooters and hunters alike for decades to come.

What is it about the veteran cartridge that still appeals to shooters to this day, when there are so many more powerful cartridges available, including the Elmer Keith-upgraded .357 Magnum? Philip Massaro has the answer.
