Hunting Ammo: What to Look for in a Big-Game Bullet Hunting bullets have come a long way since the first round lead ball was launched game-ward from a long-barreled muzzleloader. Bullets now are long and streamlined, tipped with space-age material, and constructed of copper married to lead through special bonding processes. They are incredibly accurate, highly aerodynamic, and boast superb terminal performance. They are the finest killing projectiles the world has ever known; that’s a great thing for us as hunters.

Canada goose hunting from kayak. GoPro video. An interesting fact is that of all the subspecies of geese, the Canadian goose flies the worst. This is due to its large weight. That is why the author of the video was in no hurry to get the gun out of the case. Canada geese have been introduced in Europe in the early 17th century by explorer Samuel de Champlain who sent several pairs of geese to France as a present for King Louis XIII. The Canada goose was one of the many species described by Carl Linnaeus in his 18th-century work Systema Naturae. The Canadian goose (Branta canadensis) is a waterfowl from the duck family. It is the most widespread waterfowl in North America: its population exceeds 5 million individuals. The body length of the Canadian goose is 55-110 cm, the wingspan is 120-180 cm, and the weight is 2.0—6.5 kg. The Canadian goose is native to North America. Currently, the bird breeds mainly in Alaska and Canada, including on the Arctic coasts and islands of the Canad

A hunter with his hunting fox. Canada, 1942. There is no historical evidence that foxes were used as hunting companions in Canada during the 1940s—or at any time in Canadian history. Unlike dogs, falcons, or even horses, foxes were not domesticated or trained for cooperative hunting in North America, including by Indigenous peoples or European settlers. Foxes in Canada were primarily associated with the fur trade, not hunting partnerships. The country had a well-established fur industry, and fox farming—especially for silver, red, and Arctic foxes—was a significant rural enterprise, particularly in the Canadian Maritimes, the Prairies, and the North. Fur farms proliferated in the early 20th century, peaking in the 1920s–1940s, when luxurious fox fur coats were in high demand in Europe and the United States. Wild foxes were trapped for their pelts, often using steel leg-hold traps or snares. Trappers—many of them Indigenous or Métis, or non-Indigenous residents of remote regions—reli

The Best hares hunter in Canada. Lynx is considered to be the very orderly in Canada who brings the number of hares in the region back to normal. No, if a black-tailed deer, duck or mole comes across on the route, the Canadian lynx will definitely challenge them. But from 30 to 97% of the lynx's usual diet consists of hares. Hunting of the Canadian lynx for hares has become a kind of salvation for the locals. Those who have not experienced the rapid uncontrolled spread of hares or rabbits will not understand the essence of the problem. Here it is worth remembering the problem of rabbits in Australia, for example. Where there is no suitable predator, there is a catostrophic increase in the number of rodents and they simply destroy the nature around. Due to the poor diet, the Canadian lynx had to hone its hunting skills to perfection. If a lynx attacks, it means it clearly knows that it will have lunch. If the lynx is not absolutely sure of the result, it will not even attempt a throw

Your National Rifle Association (NRA) has joined Safari Club International (SCI) and 22 other conservation organizations, representing millions of sportsmen and women across the country, in a letter to Interior Secretary Deb Haaland. These organizations “respectfully request that the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service) appeal the February 10, 2022, decision from the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California vacating the 2020 rule removing the gray wolf from the Endangered Species Act (ESA) lists of endangered and threatened species.” In early 2020, the Service removed gray wolves in the lower 48 U.S. States from the ESA lists. Of course, anti-hunting groups immediately sued to put wolves back under the ESA. Although these groups acknowledged that some populations of gray wolves have recovered, they sought to force the Service to restore wolves everywhere—from Maine to Washington State.

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

Hunting Seasons in BANFF NATIONAL PARK: Season Dates, Permit Requirements and Essential Regulations Nestled in the Canadian Rockies, Banff National Park offers unique hunting opportunities governed by strict conservation rules. Understanding these regulations is essential for hunters planning to explore this wilderness. General Rules and Hunting Periods in Banff National Park The primary hunting season in Banff runs from September 1st to November 30th, though dates vary by species. Parks Canada, in collaboration with Alberta Environment and Parks, regulates these periods carefully. The park's elevation (1,350m to 3,600m) creates microclimates affecting animal behavior. For example, elk movements depend on snow accumulation at higher elevations starting in late October. Compared to neighboring regions like British Columbia or Montana, Banff has stricter limitations due to its national park status. Significant changes occurred after the 2014 conservation assessment, which led to red

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. Wind direction affects how geese approach decoys, while fog, rain, or snow can obscure

Bergara B-14 When this rifle made a splash in America, gun-counter savants were wont to call it “the rifle the Remington 700 should have been.” Blasphemous though that may be to Remington disciples, the fact is the B-14 is an exceptional rifle and has garnered several national awards. Patterned much like the M700, it has a better extractor and bolt release. Manufactured in Bergara, Spain, the B-14 has quickly garnered a reputation for superb accuracy, thanks to the unrelenting quality of Bergara barrels. This reputation is supported by a sub-MOA accuracy guarantee. Versions range from true mountain rifles to heavy, configurable PRS competition guns. There’s even a B-14 R rimfire PRS-type training rifle. The $865 B-14 Ridge model shown here won the NRA Golden Bullseye Best Rifle award in 2018. It has a threaded muzzle, a composite stock with soft-touch finish, and integral epoxy-pillar bedding. It’s an excellent all-around hunting rifle that won’t let you down..

Inuit Hunting History and the Role of Their Dogs The Inuit, Indigenous peoples inhabiting the Arctic regions of Canada, Alaska, and Greenland, have developed a rich and resilient culture shaped by the extreme conditions of the far north. Central to their survival and way of life has been their sophisticated hunting traditions and their deep relationship with their dogs—particularly the Inuit Sled Dog (also known as the Canadian Eskimo Dog or Qimmiq). Inuit Hunting History For thousands of years, the Inuit have relied on hunting as the foundation of their subsistence economy. Living in one of the harshest environments on Earth, they developed highly specialized techniques and tools to hunt marine mammals, land animals, and birds. Marine Mammal Hunting Seals were—and remain—one of the most vital resources. The Inuit hunted seals through breathing holes in the ice using harpoons, a method requiring patience, skill, and intimate knowledge of animal behavior. During the open-water seaso

Aron Snyder — a legend in bow hunting and an expert on backcountry hunting gear in the US Aron Snyder is one of the most recognizable hunting bloggers in the US, specializing in traditional bow hunting and expert backcountry hunting gear. Where Aron Snyder hunts: hunting in Colorado, Wyoming, and the Yukon Snyder prefers to hunt in wild, hard-to-reach places. His main hunting regions are: The Rocky Mountains of Colorado — a classic Western American hunting destination; Wyoming — the birthplace of Kifaru production; Yukon, Canada — the site of his trophy hunting for Canadian moose. How he hunts: traditional bow and backcountry technique Aron Snyder is a proponent of traditional bow hunting. He avoids modern crossbows and sights, preferring bare techniques that are as close to natural hunting as possible. This makes him an expert in “traditional bow hunting” and “primitive hunting tactics.” He practices backcountry hunting: he carries all his equipment with him, sleeps in a tent,

Alaska (Russian: Аляска) is a state located in the Western United States on the northwest extremity of North America. A semi-exclave of the U.S., it borders the Canadian province of British Columbia and the Yukon territory to the east; it also shares a maritime border with the Russian Federation's Chukotka Autonomous Okrug to the west, just across the Bering Strait. To the north are the Chukchi and Beaufort seas of the Arctic Ocean, while the Pacific Ocean lies to the south and southwest. Alaska is by far the largest U.S. state by area, comprising more total area than the next three largest states (Texas, California, and Montana) combined. It represents the seventh largest subnational division in the world. It is the third-least populous and the most sparsely populated state, but by far the continent's most populous territory located mostly north of the 60th parallel, with a population of 736,081 as of 2020—more than quadruple the combined populations of Northern Canada and Greenland.

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
