Sierra Bullets has introduces a new load in .22-250 Remington, with a 50-grain BlitzKing bullet for explosive expansion in varmints and small game.

Take a look at the construction and conformation of several popular bullet types to ensure you make the right choice for your next varmint hunt.

DoubleTap's Ted Nugent-branded ammo won’t make you a better guitar player, but it will do duty as full-power ammunition for whatever the world throws at you.

If a new rifle cartridge is not supported by one of the main ammunition manufacturers, it doesn’t seem to get much traction. This is unfortunate, specifically in the case of the .25-45 Sharps, because it provides an easy-to-obtain ballistic advantage over the two most popular AR-15 chamberings: the .223 Rem. and the .300 Blackout.

The Sharps Rifle Company (SRC) developed the .25-45 Sharps cartridge and introduced it in 2012. Not to be confused with Shiloh Sharps—a company that makes historically correct blackpowder cartridge rifles—SRC is for all practical purposes built around this one cartridge, which is designed to replicate .250 Savage ballistics in an AR-15. Four years after its introduction, most hunters have never heard of the .25-45 Sharps. That’s about to change.
