Smith & Wesson 460V Review 11/11/08
Gun reviews typically delve deeply into a firearm's technical aspects, examine the finer details of a model's features and evaluate performance based on a narrow range of criteria. Fitness for a broad scope of applications is often left as something for the user to determine on their own. A different approach will be taken here. Smith & Wesson promotes the 460V as "The World's Most Versatile
Big Bore Revolver." This investigation will consider that claim within the context of big game hunting. [4 Comments]
Marlin XL7 Rifle Review 10/22/08
The Marlin Firearms Company has been around for well over a century. During
that time they have made many firearms, but they are best known for their lever
action rifles. Several million were produced, which is comparable to Winchester
and Savage, their main competition. The Marlin has a well deserved reputation
for quality and durability. I have several in my collection and they all shoot
well. A couple of them will give the average bolt action a run for their money
in the accuracy department. The 30-30 has been in my collection for over 40
years and still shoots very well. For this review we're going to look at the Marlin XL7 bolt action centerfire hunting rifle. [Comments?]

For this article we decided to test the Scout 1000 with ARC technology. [Comments?]
Cabela's Full Draw 2 Blind Review 09/23/08
Over the last ten years, probably no product has changed the way we hunt more than the portable ground blind. Originally adopted by turkey hunters, today's blinds are quickly gaining popularity with deer hunters, as they become larger, quieter, and are proving to be extremely effective. This rise in popularity has resulted in numerous manufacturers jumping on board and producing their own line of portable blinds. These blinds range widely in their features, as well as their prices, and choosing the right one can seem like a daunting task. If you are looking for a decent blind at an affordable cost, then you may want to take a look at the line of blinds sold under the Cabela's label. [Comments?]
