Rifle

Today, anything you buy from Christensen Arms has at least a sub-MOA guarantee and many of the models carry a ½ MOA guarantee. That’s an impressive feat for rifles that are extremely lightweight.

I fondly remember picking up my grandfathers old dusty, faded hunting magazines and reading about hunting rifles. Unless you were buying a rifle from Kenny Jarrett, or other custom builders, sub-MOA rifles were nary to be found. Sometime during the late 90’s or early 2000, factory rifles started to appear that could produce MOA results with factory ammunition. These days, companies guarantee MOA accuracy and owners seem to fly into a fit of panic if their new rifle fails to group 1.047 inches at 100 yards. I recently got to spend some time behind a Mossberg Patriot Predator rifle, chambered in 6.5 Creedmoor, and had no problems hitting a 24-inch plate at 1,800 yards. How times have changed.

Rock River Arms is continuing to expand its lineup of hunting-minded sporting black rifles with a new LAR chambered for .450 Bushmaster.

When the Mauser M18 rifle was first introduced last year, reactions were predictably split. Some hunters immediately rushed out to buy one while some of the more stodgy types among us declared, “That’s not a Mauser – it’s a push feed!”

For under $100, a muzzle brake is a terrific way to help you become a better shooter, and it’s an easy gift for the shooter in your life.

The Ruger American Rimfire Long-Range Target Rifle carries and handles like a bench rifle with a fully adjustable modular stock and vertical pistol grip.

For the first time in its storied history, Rock River Arms has tossed its hat into the bolt-gun arena, and all signs point a winner.

Fitted with an AccuFit Grey Synthetic Stock that allows for both comb-height and length-of-pull adjustment and an exclusive Proof Research Carbon Fiber Wrap barrel, it became quickly apparent this rifle was designed for those looking to wander off the beaten path in search of big-game nirvana.

Howa has a new line of M1500 rifles featuring carbon fiber barrels and H-S Precision stocks.
