When zoomed in, the image remains sharp and clear, with minimal distortion at the edges. This is essential for long-range shooting where precision is crucial. Magnification Range Discovery ED-ELR The 5-40x magnification range is versatile. It allows for both close and long-range shooting, making it suitable for various applications, from target shooting to hunting. I found that the adjustments between different magnification levels were smooth and intuitive, which is a big plus. Reticle and Illumination Discovery ED-ELR The scope features an illuminated reticle, which is a game changer in low-light situa

UNIJOS employs local hunters, vigilantes, to secure campus, hostels Worried by the security situation in its campus and hostels, the management of the University of Jos (UNIJOS), has revealed that it has engaged the services of local hunters and vigilantes to help secure the students on campus and their hostels. This was made known on Tuesday by the outgoing Vice-Chancellor of the university, Prof. Sebastian Maimako, during the valedictory session to mark the end of his five-year tenure. “It is no longer news that the security situation in the country is quite tenuous,” Prof. Maimako said. Continuing, he said: “This is why under my administration, we made frantic efforts to ensure that all lives and property within the university are adequately protected. “When we got a security report that we were the soft target, we closed our hostels for almost two weeks and suspended lectures eventually.

West Virginia boy killed by accidental gunshot while hunting An 11-year-old boy has died after an accidental gunshot wound while hunting with his father. The incident occurred on Thanksgiving morning on Bear Mountain in Pocahontas County, West Virginia. The victim’s name has not been released and the incident is still under investigation, according to Channel 8 News. West Virginia Natural Resources Police, West Virginia State Police, Virginia Conservation Police and the Highland County Sheriff’s Office all responded to the scene. Unfortunately, these incidents are a stark reminder of the importance of firearm safety and responsible gun handling. GOHUNT’s Trail Kreizter outlines critical points of firearm safety, which every seasoned hunter should review. The article includes: Treating every gun as if it were loaded. Always point the muzzle in a safe direction. Ensuring the barrel and action are free of obstructions. Being aware of your target – including what’s in front of it and

WHEN TO DRAW One of the biggest obstacles when staring down a big whitetail is deciding when to draw. There is no easy answer. First, consider the buck’s travel path. It doesn’t do much good to draw if his current path doesn’t have the potential to bring him by your stand. Drawing too early often means you’ll have to let down your string — something that creates a lot of movement. Second, look at the buck’s speed. If he’s moving briskly (most often during the rut) and you expect him to pass through a shooting lane soon, the top priority is to draw and be ready. If he’s taking his time, then so should you. Drawing undetected is a big first step, but obstacles remain. You still have to send an arrow to a rather small target through space often cluttered with branches and leaves. Identify openings that could present shot opportunities ahead of time.

Лайка нашла хозяина через 2,5 года, когда убежала за кабаном и потерялась на охоте — Было много звонков, посторонние люди хотели забрать пса, но мы ждали хозяина. 10 января нам позвонил мужчина из Минска. Он сказал, что по фото и описанию лайка — его, и попросил придержать пару дней. 13 января он увез собаку в Минск. Это была удивительная встреча. Оказалось, лайку минчанин искал больше двух лет.

Bergara Canyon If you prefer the classic fit and feel of a hunting rifle stock without the extra weight, Bergara’s Premier Series Canyon rifle, built on a 100% carbon fiber AG Composites stock may fit the bill. The No. 4 fluted barrel with the 5/8-24” threaded Omni brake allows reduced felt recoil when shooting the heavy-hitting caliber options. The M5 floor plate gives you the ability to customize with either the detachable magazine or a hinged floor plate. The Canyon rifle is the perfect balance of a lightweight and portable hunting rig. The Canyon’s two-position safety is part of the trigger assembly, which is a TriggerTech Frictionless Release Technology trigger. One great feature of this combination allows the bolt handle not to lock in the closed position, which in turn allows the rifle to be unloaded while in the safe position. The Canyon offers two barrel lengths, 20- and 22-inch, with chamberings to include 6.5 Creedmoor, 6.5 PRC, .308 Win, .300 Win Mag, 300 PRC, 28 Nosler a

Mountain hunting in 🇿🇦 South Africa?
A <strong>target</strong> at 500, 600, 700 meters and even further?

Yes!
If these are the green hills of the Eastern Cape province

Mountain hunting in 🇿🇦 South Africa? A target at 500, 600, 700 meters and even further? Yes! If these are the green hills of the Eastern Cape province and hunting wild pigs. 👍 A very interesting hunting format - tracking from afar, and then sneaking up on the mountains and, if possible, a long-range shot. 1️⃣ First, traditionally drive up by car, 2️⃣ then climb higher, find a comfortable position and 3️⃣ binoculars neighboring hills. Telescopes were very useful. Now is the most active time - the rut of wild pigs. No need for bait, ambush near water - this is unnecessary now. All the action is in the mountains and a patient hunter will not miss it! 👉 It is worth noting that the trophies of foothill pigs are excellent: the size is impressive, the weight is under 80-90 kg - this is not a warthog (!), but almost a bushpig. The fangs are also decent. The number of trophies for a 5-day tour is from several to several dozen. Depends on desire and possibilities. 👐 Who wants to spend a

Naivis Gen 2+ Night Vision Scope: Honest Hunter's Review Look, I've been hunting for over 20 years. I've seen gear come and go, and I'm not easily impressed by fancy gadgets. I decided to give the Naivis Gen 2+ night vision scope a try, hoping it would give me an edge during those low-light hunts. I paired it with the Naivis 850nm IR illuminator, which I'll touch on later. Here's my honest take: Naivis Gen 2+ The Good: Decent Image Quality (For Gen 2+): Let's be clear, it's not Gen 3 clarity, but for the price point and being a Gen 2+, the image is surprisingly good. It provides a usable image in fairly dark conditions, allowing target identification out to a reasonable distance (about 150-200 yards in my experience). It definitely beats trying to hunt with binos and a prayer. Sturdy Build: The scope feels solid. It's been bumped around in my pack, endured some light rain, and still holds zero. That's crucial when you're out in the bush. Adjustable Brightness: The ability to adjus

Beretta AL391 Urika 2 (12 Gauge) - A Hunter's review I've owned and hunted with a Beretta AL391 Urika 2 for a good number of years now. It was my go-to semi-auto for everything from waterfowl to upland birds, and even the occasional sporting clays outing. I've put it through its paces in all sorts of conditions – rain, snow, heat, dust – and have a pretty solid understanding of its strengths and weaknesses. The Good Stuff Beretta AL391 Urika 2 12-gauge: Shooting Comfort: This is where the Urika 2 truly shines. The gas-operated system does a fantastic job of soaking up recoil. Even with heavier magnum loads, it's surprisingly manageable, which translates to less fatigue during long days in the field and faster follow-up shots. Compared to inertia-driven guns, it's noticeably softer on the shoulder. Reliability (Mostly): When clean and properly maintained, the Urika 2 is generally reliable. It'll cycle a wide range of loads, from light target rounds to heavier hunting loads, without

ATA Arms SP 12ga (710mm Barrel) Review Alright, here's an honest and hopefully helpful take on the ATA Arms SP 12 gauge with a 710mm barrel, from a perspective of someone who's spent some decent time in the field and at the range: Having put a fair few shells through the ATA Arms SP, I think I can offer a reasonably balanced review. Full disclosure: I'm not a sponsored shooter or anything like that, just a hunter who appreciates a decent tool. The Good: Value for Money: This is where the ATA Arms SP really shines. You're getting a lot of shotgun for the price point. It's a solid, functional over-under that's significantly cheaper than some of the bigger European brands. For a beginner looking to get into clay shooting or bird hunting without breaking the bank, it's a very appealing option. Reliability: In my experience, the action has been reliably smooth. Ejection's been positive, and I haven't had any major mechanical failures so far. I've put a mix of light target loads a

7.62x54R Laser Bore Sight Review As an avid marksman and someone interested in precision shooting, I recently had the opportunity to try out a 7.62x54R laser bore sight for cold zeroing. Here is my honest and detailed review, highlighting both the pros and cons. Pros: Ease of Use: One of the standout features of this laser bore sight is its simplicity in operation. Just insert the laser into the chamber of my 7.62x54R rifle, and I'm ready to go. There's no need for complex setup procedures, which is ideal for beginners and experienced shooters alike. Time-Saving: Traditionally, sighting in a rifle can be a time-consuming process. However, this laser bore sight significantly reduces the time it takes to get on target. It allows me to make initial adjustments without wasting ammunition. In my experience, I've been able to zero in within minutes, which is a major plus. Improved Accuracy: By using the laser bore sight, I can ensure my scope is aligned perfectly before I fire any live
