ammo review

If I find myself needing some factory ammo to hunt with I’ll be looking for Accurate, Deadly, and Dependable; Hornady Handgun Hunter.

This is going to be a 3 part article of calibers suitable for handgun hunting feral hogs and we will deal with those calibers that are typically used in revolvers.  I will attempt to cover each group of calibers sufficiently and provide some good examples and information.

I’d never heard of the 25 Sharps until I walked across the aisle at SHOT one year to the little booth occupied by the Sharps Rifle Company.

There’s a new cartridge on the block, and it’s one cool customer. Built to fulfill the desires of the classic .270 Winchester shooting crowd while meeting the demands of today’s long-range shooting and hunting protocol, the brand-new 6.8 Western steps into the arena and doffs its ten-gallon hat.

From time to time, Ruger produces the rifles in chamberings more suitable for hunting African plains game and big game elsewhere. The newest of these is the Ruger Hawkeye African chambered in 280 Ackley Improved. For my money, Ruger knocked it out of the park with this gun.

Less popular than 9mm, there is still a wide selection of .40 S&W ammunition for training and personal defense when other calibers are sold out. Despite conventional wisdom, gun buyers, new and old should consider the .40 S&W.

If you put a premium on killing big geese dead, you need to think long and hard about saving your pennies and investing in a case or two of this lethal load.

In the CMMG AR platform, this one is a force to be reckoned with. If you are ready to step away from the 30-30 lever action or get a younger shooter into the mix, this is an absolutely fantastic package. 350 Legend is here to stay, and my prediction is it will be harvesting bucks for a good long time to come.

Smaller calibers and cartridges kick less. They tend to be accurate and are certainly easier to shoot well. Loaded with a premium bullet they penetrate deeply and create a devastating wound channel. They do everything a big, hard-kicking caliber can do, right?
