A .223 Remington is a small, fast, .22 caliber centerfire rifle cartridge. It fires a .224 inch bullet, usually 40 to 77 grains, and it is the round most AR-15 rifles are built around, along with plenty of bolt actions, single shots and even a few lever guns. The one thing to get right is [...]

The best 10mm carbines of 2026 finally give the 10mm Auto the long gun it deserved all along. The 10mm gives you .357 Magnum-class power in a rimless semi-auto cartridge, and when you add barrel length, you add velocity. In our KRISS Vector review, the same LAX load went from 1,128 fps out of a [...]

The Browning X-Bolt 2 Special Max LR SPR blends hunting-rifle practicality with enough long-range muscle to make steel ring past 600 yards. With a suppressor-ready 18-inch barrel, adjustable MAX stock, crisp DLX trigger, and consistent one-MOA performance, this 6.5 Creedmoor makes a strong case for the do-it-all rifle slot.

When we look at the world of firearms, the bolt action genre is often ruled by full-powered rifle cartridges. That’s a real shame because there is some serious charm to the intermediate caliber bolt guns.

Today Winchester also sells budget XPR [...]

The active pursuit of dangerous game is far and away my favorite style of hunting. The gear required for hunting dangerous game — specifically the rifle — must be rock solid, as with failure comes the potential for loss of life.

The Winchester Model 70 Featherweight brings wood, blued steel, controlled round feed, and old-school hunting rifle swagger into a world obsessed with carbon fiber and plastic. We tested this 6.5 Creedmoor classic to see if the Rifleman’s Rifle still deserves a spot in the deer stand.

Geissele’s King Hunter is a heavy, expensive, superbly accurate bolt gun built around Federal’s hot new 7mm Backcountry cartridge. It is not trying to be a featherweight mountain rifle, but from the bench and the field rest, this thing shoots like it knows it wears a crown.
