“Tag: Richard Mann”

Henry’s Big Boy Steel Carbine has traditional lever-action lines but retains Henry’s signature cutout in the magazine tube, through which cartridges are loaded and unloaded. Though somewhat unconventional in appearance and function, it makes the lever gun infinitely easier and safer to unload at hunt’s end.

The Engage line of riflescopes represents Bushnell’s latest evolution in optical sights. How does it stack up? Richard Mann took a closer look.

Austrian-based Jagdhund is now offering its gear in the United States, through Steyr Arms. Richard Mann took a closer look at some of the company's more hunting-driven offerings.

Some hunters do stupid stuff. Don't be one of those hunters.

Its time has come and gone.

Henry Repeating Arms has long turned out fine-shooting and reliable lever-action rifles to help us find the cowboy in us all.

Richard Mann offers a crash course on understanding ballistic coefficient.

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.
