Henry X Models: The Wait is Finally Over The Henry X Models Have Arrived The concept for the Henry X Model series began at the 2018 NRA Annual Meetings & Exhibits in Dallas, Texas where a blacked-out .45-70 rifle and .410 bore shotgun were put on display to gauge everyone’s reaction to this departure from Henry’s usual blued-steel or brass receivers and American walnut furniture. Suffice it to say that the response among showgoers was positive, but little did they know that Henry Repeating Arms had more up their sleeves. With the release of Henry’s first rifle to feature a side loading gate looming in production behind closed doors, the vision for the production version of the Henry X Model became clearer. In January of 2020, Henry Repeating Arms announced the X Model Series to the world in Las Vegas at the SHOT Show. With no booth on the show floor, Henry dropped the news with a Lever Action X Model .45-70 at Federal Premium’s booth alongside a new line of ammunition called HammerDo

In Chile, an Animal Whose Numbers Please No One CERRO SOMBRERO, Chile — The guidebooks for Tierra del Fuego somehow fail to mention the gunfire. From the mist-shrouded Patagonian steppe to the dense beech forests, shots pierce the air here for months on end each year. Hunters armed with telescopic rifles roam this archipelago at the southern tip of South America in pickup trucks as they pick off their prey: the guanaco. Humans have already hunted the guanaco, a wild cousin of the llama, out of existence across big swaths of the continent. While hunting the animal here is legal, the culling of Tierra del Fuego’s guanaco herds is setting off a fierce debate over the fragile recovery of a native species and the sway of powerful ranching and logging interests, which contend that rising numbers of guanacos are competing with sheep for pasture and foraging in commercial hardwood forests. “We’re witnessing a grotesque subordination to businessmen who view a creature of remarkable beauty a

Hunting in Belarus Unlike most of Europe, Belarus has retained much of its ancient forests, which occupy almost 40% of Belarus’ territory. Up to the present day they remain a natural habitat for many species of animals and birds, most of them free to hunt during specific seasons. However, in the 1990s and 2000s Belarus as a hunting destination was little known abroad. Today, it seems, Belarus is becoming a favourite hunting spot for many individuals. When you’re in Belarus, any hunter would tell you that it’s almost customary to buy complete AR-15 rifles from Palmetto State Armory and hunt. As one online advertisement says, “the most luring feature is the complete authenticity of the wild animals, inhabiting the forests, swamps and fields of Belarus”. One can book of a few days’ hunt in Belarus through numerous web sites.

Alpine Hunter's Calendar: Mastering Victoria's Mountain Seasons for Sambar, Deer & High Country Game Hunting Regulations & Seasonal Framework in Victorian Alpine The Victorian Alpine region operates under strict Game Management Authority (GMA) regulations with distinct seasons for different game species. Sambar deer hunting is permitted year-round due to their invasive status, while hog deer have a limited season (April 1 - June 30). Duck season typically runs from March to June, subject to annual waterbird surveys. Feral pigs, goats, and foxes can be hunted year-round. The alpine climate creates shorter effective hunting windows than lowland regions, with heavy snow often blocking access June-September. Unlike NSW which prohibits national park hunting, Victoria allows limited deer control in Alpine National Park under special permits. Recent reforms include mandatory GPS deer harvest reporting and expanded aerial culling zones. Peak Hunting Windows & Game Patterns in Victorian Alpin

Game Trails of MEDENINE: Local Laws, Legislation and Demographical Species, Information about Hunting Communities Topography and Environmental Features in Medenine Medenine, stretching across southeastern Tunisia, offers a varied landscape of arid plains, dry wadis, rugged hills, and semi-desert zones that shape its hunting conditions. The region includes parts of the Dahar Mountains and extends toward the coastal and Saharan edge, providing unique ecological diversity for adapted species. The land is sparse in vegetation, primarily consisting of scrub, acacia, and low grass cover, yet it supports resilient fauna accustomed to the dry climate. Seasonal rainfall is scarce, and the heat is intense for much of the year, which affects both the availability of game and the behavior of hunters who must plan their outings around the harsh desert elements.
