“axis”

Lots of new rimfire and centerfire rifles are hitting the market this year. Here’s a rundown of the best new hunting rifles from the class of ’25.

Browning’s new 825 Citori over/under retains the best features of the 725 and adds a new trigger system and upgraded ergonomics, resulting in a light feel, faster swing and an incredibly smooth follow through.

Built for both hunting and the range, the Citori 825 over/under features an engraved low-profile receiver with updated styling and engraving, a new Fire Lite 2 mechanical trigger, an Inflex II recoil pad and Invector-DS chokes.

On this week's #SundayGunday, we shoot the brand-new Savage Arms Axis 2.

With five models to choose from, the new Axis 2 is a great choice for just about anyone including a beginner looking to jump into the game with a quality bolt-action or an experienced hunter looking to modernize his gun locker.

The 27 Nosler and 6.8 Western both use the .277-inch diameter bullets made so popular by the venerable .270 Winchester, yet at faster twist rates with heavier projectiles than the old man can handle. We pit these two against one another and see which of the young upstarts comes out on top.

You’re never too old to learn something new.

Based on customer feedback from the original Oracle, the new Oracle 2 features improved auto-brightness detection, improved manual brightness control, improved set-up, better waterproofing and more accurate arrow drop calculations. 

If you are a bowhunter that demands consistency and accuracy, the five-point straightness check used to confirm Easton's new Match Grade Pro Shop Series arrows is hard to ignore.
