Powders And Dies

Alternative Ammo: .22-250 Remington vs. .223 Remington

Dennis Bradley puts two varminting favorites up against each other—the speedy .22-250 Rem., and ubiquitous .223 Rem.

Behind the Bullet: .350 Remington Magnum

Introduced in 1965, the .350 Remington Magnum could be considered the original short magnum. Using the belted Holland & Holland case responsible for so many excellent designs from the 40s, 50s and 60s, but shortened to be wedged into a short-action magazine, the .350 Magnum would mimic the performance of the .35 Whelen.

Alternative Ammo: .243 Winchester vs. 6mm Creedmoor

Contributor Dennis Bradley compares the .243 Winchester and 6mm Creedmoor, in an effort to dispel a few popular myths surrounding the "inherent accuracy" of certain cartridges.

Behind the Bullet: 400 Legend

The 400 Legend takes the 350 Legend concept a step further, giving hunters a straight-walled cartridge fully suitable for both bolt-action rifles as well as the AR platform, conforming to the collective statutes set forth by a number of Midwestern states.

Head to Head: 6.5 PRC vs. 6.8 Western

Between the 6.5 PRC and 6.8 Western, which is the better choice for the hunter? Contributor Philip Massaro examines the pros and cons of each.

Alternative Ammo: .375 Ruger vs .375 H&H

Contributor Dennis Bradley draws on family wildcatting experience for an in-depth teardown of two .375-caliber heavyweights.

New for 2024: HEVI-Shot HEVI-XII .410 Bore

HEVI-Shot has expanded its shotshell line to include its 12 g/cc tungsten shot in .410-bore. This shot is over 50 percent more dense than traditional steel shot, making the HEVI-XII a logical choice for those who like to hunt waterfowl with the sub-gauge shotguns.

First Look: Federal Freight Train Copper Slugs

Using a lead-free copper monometal design, with a polymer tip over a hollow cavity, the Freight Train Copper gives a huge ballistic advantage over conventional slugs.

First Look: Hornady V-Match Ammunition

Hornady’s new V-Match ammo blends the uniformity, aerodynamics and accuracy of the ELD-X and ELD Match lines with a thinner jacket which results in near-explosive expansion.

First Look: CCI 10mm Auto Pest Control Shotshells

New for 2024, CCI has extended the Pest Control Shotshell line to include an offering for the 10mm Auto cartridge, featuring 105 grains of No. 9 shot.
