.308

  I must confess that sometimes I am a bit of a gun snob, especially as it relates to rifles. I don’t have any full custom second mortgage guns, but I generally look well above the price point of the M&P 10 that came in for review this week. As a retired military sniper and [...]

The Kel-Tec RFB is a .308 bullpup that ejects brass forward. Mine shot 1 1/8 inches at 100 meters and ran a couple hundred rounds without a hiccup. Two things to know: rock the magazine in to seat it, and expect the recoil to push low and right. Before the full review, a quick look [...]

Hunting styles vary greatly across our country, with spot-and-stalk in the west, sitting on stands in the east, corn feeders in the south and even deer run with dogs in certain states. Travel outside of our borders, and you can find an even wider variety of methods, not to mention specific customs, traditions, and expectations. What may seem natural to you or I can seem completely against the grain in a foreign land.

All three will kill a deer cleanly at sane ranges, so the real choice is about recoil, action length and how far you shoot. The .30-06 hits hardest and handles the heaviest bullets, which makes it the pick of the three for elk. The .308 does nearly the same work from a shorter, handier short-action [...]

Barnes Precision Machine of Apex, North Carolina, has a long history of direct support for the boys from Ft. Bragg. More loaner upper receivers have been used in the Global War on Terror (GWOT) than you will find any official statistic on. With a need for accuracy and reliability well beyond the normal government-issue junk, Green Berets have field tested the BPM products in the least forgiving environments on earth.

Federal introduced the new Edge TLR (Terminal Long Range) bullets in .308. The bullets are tipped with a hollow polymer shell that is supposed to shear off on impact, leaving a massive hollowpoint.

Sometimes I stand back and look at my guns and realize I’m missing something. I realized recently that I didn’t have a serious long range rifle. So I started at the beginning. This is the base rifle I’ve chosen for a long range build. So how well does a stock Remington 700 perform? I must admit it will be hard to improve on this performance.

I’m on the hunt for a hard-hitting rifle capable of delivering excellent terminal ballistics at extended range. But it also has to be fast and versatile for close quarters work. Is there a gun out there that can do both? We’ve put the FN SCAR 17 to the test and are here with the results.
