The 7x57R, a rimmed version of the 7x57mm, was introduced on the heels of the 7x57mm Mauser cartridge. The rim allowed the cartridge to be fired from the popular break action rifles used by hunters in the early 1900s. Mauser and the Spanish military had done extensive testing to develop and field the cartridge in the Model 1893 bolt action rifle. This made the 7x57R easy to market to hunters, since the cartridge was already established as accurate and effective. |

Many of us remember Chris Cheng from the History Channel’s long-since-canceled show “Top Shot.” The show ran for five seasons, between 2010 and 2013, and featured two teams of competitors who had to use an unknown array of rifles, handguns and shotguns on various targets as they ran through shooting stations. One by one, the lowest-scoring marksmen were eliminated. |

Shotguns are very effective arms for home defense, because their power far eclipses most handgun and many rifle rounds. A typical self-defense load, the 12-ga. 00 buckshot shell, has a muzzle energy 2.8 times that of a .44 Mag. from a 6” handgun barrel and 1.8 times that of the 5.56 NATO cartridge used by AR-15s, loaded with a 69-gr. bullet. Yes, shotguns loaded with anything but slugs have a very limited effective range, but they certainly hold sway at home-defense distances when using the proper loads. |

Revolvers are definitely making a comeback. Once incredibly popular, they sort of lost favor to concealable single-stack and double-stack handguns over the last 30+ years. But just like fashion trends, what’s old is new again, and that includes revolvers! You might be thinking “a gun is a gun is a gun” and wondering why gripping a revolver would be different than your semi-auto Glock pistol. Sure, they’re similar, and a lot of people use the same grip for both. But revolvers can have a variety of grips on them, and they’re often angled very differently from your run-of-the-mill Glock. |

A New Jersey man faces criminal charges after he purchased more than a dozen kits to make “ghost,” or untraceable, guns at a Pennsylvania exhibition, the top law enforcement officers from both states said Friday. New Jersey acting Attorney General Andrew Bruck and Pennsylvania Attorney General Josh Shapiro said William Pillus of Lincoln Park, New Jersey, was indicted on five charges this week, including second-degree unlawful possession of an assault firearm, third-degree purchasing firearm parts to manufacture untraceable firearms, third-degree possession of firearm without a serial number, and two counts of fourth-degree possession of a large capacity ammunition magazine. |

Gun safes rarely move after that Olympic weightlifting team squeezes it through your front door. It’s ideal, intimidating and there’s no doubt it deters everything except professional thieves with explosives training. Unfortunately, the monoliths don’t fit in every home and the job market is more mobile than ever. |

The first day of the 2021 deer hunting season may have been hampered by the weather, but not all hunters let it rain on their parade. The hunting day began early Saturday, a half-hour before sunrise. At Sabattus Deer Processing, the bagged deer, while few, nonetheless came in steadily, dragged from trucks and trunks and weighed. The operation has been a popular spot for hunters during its 22 years in business, only running during the season — about two months total — seven days a week.

Knives were a key part of our survival and success through time, especially when survival hinged on hunting and preparing food. How we use knives today comes down to more modern, albeit no less important, tasks. Still, one of the most primal and common uses remains hunting. Today’s topic will focus on the definition and uses of a hunting knife. We’ll even include some of our favorite hunting blades from the Guns.com Vault. |

Accuracy and speed are everything when it comes to precision competitions and shooting in the field. The Mark 5HD 5-25x scope is one of Leupold’s premier optics, and it offers both of those capabilities in spades with a lot of extra features that have it hitting above its weight class for the price. We put this optic in the hands of experienced precision shooter and founder of the Mid-Atlantic Rimfire Series, Dave Luu, to see what he thought about it. After putting it to the test, he’s sold on the optic and adding it to his personal lineup for precision shooting. Here’s why. |

Maine offers a lot of hunting opportunities; there are multiple seasons for big game, small game, upland birds and waterfowl for sportsmen and women to enjoy. Most outdoor folks participate in several shooting endeavors during spring and fall seasons, but most everyone has a favorite quarry. What people might not realize, or even think about, is the fact that ruffed grouse, “partridge” to most Mainers, is the most hunted game animal in the state.

TO REMEMBER |
| Some writers have so confounded society with government, as to leave little or no distinction between them; whereas they are not only different, but have different origins ... Society is in every state a blessing, but Government, even in its best state, is but a necessary evil; in its worst state, an intolerable one. — THOMAS PAINE |
