Патрон 7 mm Remington Magnum: история, характеристики, охота, сравнение и отзывы 7 mm REM MAG: Если вы охотник, который ищет идеальный баланс между мощностью, точностью и комфортом стрельбы — забудьте о компромиссах. 7 mm Remington Magnum — это один из самых универсальных и уважаемых охотничьих патронов, особенно в Северной Америке. С момента своего появления в 1962 году он стал настоящей легендой среди охотников на крупную дичь. --- 📜 История появления 7 mm Remington Magnum Патрон был представлен в 1962 году компанией Remington Arms. Идея его создания принадлежит Лесу Боуману, охотнику и редактору из Вайоминга, который стремился разработать патрон с высокой точностью, мощной баллистикой и умеренной отдачей — идеальный для охоты на лося и других крупных животных на дальних дистанциях. Боуман экспериментировал с гильзами .338 Winchester Magnum, уменьшая диаметр до 7 мм. Его разработки заинтересовали инженера Remington Майка Уокера, и вскоре компания выпустила новый патрон вместе с

Hatsan Escort Magnum 12/76 Shotgun Review As an avid hunter and firearms enthusiast, I recently had the opportunity to test the Hatsan Escort Magnum shotgun in caliber 12/76. After several outings in the field, I’m eager to share my honest and detailed review of this firearm. Pros: Build Quality: The Hatsan Escort Magnum is built to impress. The materials used are robust, and the overall construction feels solid. You can tell that it’s designed for the rigors of hunting, which gives me confidence in its durability.

Remington 870 Express Magnum 12к отзыв Решил накидать свой отзыв о Remington 870 Express Magnum в обвесе для охоты. Сразу скажу, опыт охоты у меня лет 15, перещупал всякого, так что говорю по делу, без соплей. Конфиг у меня такой: Remington 870 Express Magnum 12 калибра с коротким пулевым стволом, приклад и цевье ATI с регулировками, ну и сверху воткнул коллиматор. Что понравилось сразу, когда собрал Remington 870: Компактность. С коротким стволом и телескопическим прикладом ружье стало реально маневренным. В зарослях, в лодке, в засидке – таскать его стало гораздо удобнее. Раньше, со штатным стволом, вечно во что-то упирался концом. Регулировки ATI. Приклад ATI – вещь! Подстроил под себя длину и высоту, вкладка стала идеальной. Наконец-то перестал тянуться или горбиться, чтобы нормально прицелиться. Цевье тоже удобное, хват уверенный, не скользит. Коллиматор. Тут без вопросов. Кто пробовал охотиться с коллиматором, тот поймет. Быстрое прицеливание, особенно в сумерках – must have

Picking the Best Rifle and Caliber for Pig Hunting Do you need a magnum setup or a fast-shooting semi-auto? Probably, your deer rifle will work just fine Pig Reality There’s a reason gun nuts love pig hunting. In southern states like Texas and Florida, hogs aren’t subject to many game laws, which means you can hunt them with about whatever you please. If you have a magnum rifle that never sees the light of day because, after buying it, you realized cracked clavicles are no fun at all, you can use it on pigs. In fact, some of the advice out there suggests that you need a really big gun for hog hunting, because you never know when a true Hogzilla might make an appearance. On the other hand, plenty of would-be hog hunters show up with high-capacity semi-autos and visions of a mag dump against a marauding horde of pork. Those rifles are fun to shoot and plenty accurate enough, but unless you’re shooting from a helicopter, they rarely give you much of an advantage while pig hunting. Tru

And when you spot a wolf, or a pack of wolves, your emotions REDLINE!!! You go from a lethargic daze to gasping for air… IT’S WILD!!! Let me tell you the story of this wolf… My friend Mark McKay, Richy and I were climbing in our blind at daybreak. I was sliding my feet into the bottom of my Heater Body Suit and just about to zip it up when I heard someone say, “WOLVES!!!” Remember the emotions I was telling you about. 🤯🤯🤯… Mark scooted into the blind and informed us he had just seen the whole pack, and they were coming our way! I quietly racked a shell in my Browning 7mm, and gave myself a pep talk about gathering my “chickens!” Eight wolves came into sight!!! They were about 170 yards away down over the ledge of a beaver dam. They held up just barely in a small shooting lane. That’s when I noti

5 Factors for Rut Hunting Success 1. Weather Having the right weather can influence how much rutting activity you see — or don't see — on any given hunt. A cold front with a little rain to break a stale weather pattern, followed by a clear, crisp morning can seem to bring deer out of the woodwork. On the flip side, warm weather can slow the action to a crawl. Contrary to popular belief, the weather doesn't determine when deer breed. But it does influence how much of that breeding activity you see out in the open during daylight. Does often hug tight to thick cover when in estrus anyway, and they move even less when it's warmer than average. Bucks don't seem to cruise in the open as often, or for as long, during those unseasonably warm days, either. Don’t Miss: Big Bucks in Nasty Places 2. Available Bedding Cover Rut tactics are almost always terrain-based. So if you aren’t hunting around the type of quality bedding cover deer need this time of year, action will likely be minimal. Fi

HOW TO STAY WARM WHILE HUNTING Cold weather means whitetails are going to be on their feet more than normal. So, you have choices to make. Stay at home and watch hunting shows on TV, go to the field and be miserable or embrace the cold and learn how to make the most of it. I have lived in North Dakota for 26 years.

Picking the Best Rifle and Caliber for Pig Hunting Do you need a magnum setup or a fast-shooting semi-auto? Probably, your deer rifle will work just fine Large wild pigs can move with a grace and silence that’s starkly at odds with their appearance. The boar that emerged from the thicket next to us did it without a sound, and he was comically large. My 7-year-old son, Anse, spotted him, and by the time he said something and I looked up, the pig was walking straight away from our box stand, headed to the feeder 60 yards away. “Look at the size of the nuts on that thing!” Anse whispered. Indeed, it appeared as if the pig was toting a pair of darkened, medium-sized cantaloupes. As the boar settled on the bait, I helped Anse steady his rifle, a bolt-action .300 Blackout, in the window frame of the box blind. It was early, maybe 4 p.m., when we snuck into the blind, and the Central Texas sun was still hot. I’d barely closed the bolt on the little rifle when a mix of 25 pigs—sows and shoat

Tips for Hunting Fox Squirrels Tactics for hunting our largest tree squirrel aren’t the same as for more common gray squirrels “Let’s go chase after a fox squirrel.” Those were the last words I remember my friend Hunter saying to me before we wandered down the logging road that cut through the top of Brush Mountain. I was cramming my brain with communication law court cases for an exam. He knew exactly how to escape the books. In a sudden dart down the mountainside, Hunter vanished into the fall foliage. I scuffled through the leaves behind him the best I could in rubber boots to find him encouraging me to hurry. He handed me the .22 Magnum. “It’s a fox squirrel,” Hunter whispered. The squirrel was frozen high up in an oak tree. I aimed the gun to the sky. It took me too long to steady my shooting position, and I was certain the squirrel was going to move. But he remained still as a statue, and at the shot, the squirrel fell through the autumn air. Its fur was auburn and delicate, and

Canadian geese hunting is a popular and challenging pursuit for hunters across the United States. These migratory birds are known for their intelligence, adaptability, and strong social bonds, making them both a rewarding and demanding target. Here's an exploration of why accurate shooting is crucial in this type of hunting, how American hunters approach it, and what makes it so difficult. The Difficulty of Canadian Goose Hunting Despite its popularity, Canadian goose hunting is not easy. Several factors contribute to its difficulty: Intelligence and Adaptability Geese are highly observant and wary of potential threats. If they detect anything unusual—such as poorly placed decoys, inconsistent calling, or exposed hunters—they will flare away from the area. Experienced geese become even more difficult to deceive over time. Weather Conditions Weather plays a significant role in goose hunting success.

Pack of Canadian Wolves Released in National Park to Control Moose Populations It rippled through the conservation and hunting communities this week when news broke that four Canadian wolves were air-dropped in a national park. According to a recent National Park Service (NPS) news release, the wolves were trapped in Canada and released in the Isle Royale National Park in Michigan. “During a narrow weather window between storms last week, Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry (OMNRF) successfully transferred four wolves to Isle Royale National Park,” NPS said. “Earlier this winter, severe weather on both sides of the border hampered the ability to capture and transfer wolves. However, NPS staff worked diligently with ONMRF and over the course of four days successfully translocated Canadian wolves. Two mainland wolves, one female and one male from the same pack and both with a black coat color variation, were captured on crown land near Wawa, Ontario, and transferred to I

The 10 Best States for Snow Goose Hunting Every year, hunters shoot more light geese in these states than anywhere else Even if you didn’t know much about spring snow goose hunting, fields covered with white decoys and parking lots jammed with muddy trailers would reveal hotspots across the country. And for good reason: Depending on the weather and hatch, many areas typically produce year after year. Now and then, however, you hear about a spring destination that surprises you, and some might wonder where hunters actually kill the most light geese. A quick review of U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service harvest statistics provides some insight — and a few surprises. Disclaimer: These surveys are estimates and do not differentiate between spring, fall, and winter harvests, and they don’t take into account weather conditions or other factors that might influence success. We’ve compiled a four-season average — 2017-18 through 2020-21 — to get a general trend of recent hunter success. These numbe

Погодные условия и их влияние на охоту Погода оказывает огромное влияние на успех охоты. Например, ветряная и облачная погода может помочь скрыть охотника от добычи, а дождь усиливает движение зверей. Важно также учитывать влажность, температуру и состояние воздуха: многие виды животных становятся более активными перед непогодой. Постоянный мониторинг погоды перед выездом на охоту — ключ к успешному дню в дикой природе. Полезные ссылки: https://accuweather.com/hunting-weather #охота #погода #природа #охотники #дикаяприрода

Life on the Ledge: Judging Yardage

Life on the Ledge: Judging Yardage Shooting at Alaska big game presents a unique set of problems for the bowhunter. They live in such diverse terrain; they are frequently hunted in extreme weather and they vary dramatically in size from hundred-pound deer to nearly a ton of bison. And, regardless of size, habitat or weather, one of the biggest challenges of bowhunting is judging distance to the target animal. Mis-guessing the distance to the target, by only a few yards, is perhaps the most common reason archers miss game when bowhunting. Even with high tech, modern bows, there is still plenty of arc in an arrow’s flight path. Without question, the best way to judge yardage is to make use of a modern laser range finder, preferably one with angle-compensation features. However, there are many hunting scenarios when laser ranging is not practical or too time consuming. So, nothing will ever take the place of being able to accurately gauge distance by eyeballing it quickly. Learning to
