The USA has labelled both Canada and the EU as threats to their "National Security" in order to justify new duties declared by their military Commander-in-Chief on the international trade of steel and aluminum. So I suggest that USA made products such as firearms and ammunition should be sold exclusively within the USA so Canada and Europe can help our esteemed neighbour defend themselves and improve their national security. Sadly, I have come to the conclusion that Canadians and Europeans...

More specifically for my case, the .375 Ruger.

I know Hornady generates a good bit of emotion on this forum — either love them or hate them — so this isn’t meant to be a hate on Hornady post. I’ve used Hornady bullets for many years, particularly the InterLock variety, with very good success on whitetail in North America.

Hornady offers the following in their Dangerous Game line for the .375:

• 270gr InterLock
• 300gr DGX Bonded
• 300gr DGS Solid

The solid is obvious, so I’ll...

It's not a big boomer, but I've wanted one of these forever. Finally came across one at a good price and grabbed it. I ran the serial number (10336) and the best I could come up with was 1924. They say there are proof markings on the underside of the barrel so at some point I'll take the action and all out of the stock and take a look. Just got it home tonight. 6.5x54. Guy I bought it from killed a black bear with it and said it did great. I've read a lot of good about this caliber...
