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

Henry Osborn – bone hunter On a photo paleontologist Henry Osborn with dinosaur limbs, 1899. Henry Osborn was the first man to describe the complete skeleton of Tyrannosaurus rex and coined the name itself. It translates to "royal tyrant lizard." Henry Osborn was born in Fairfield, Connecticut, and attended Princeton University. From 1883 to 1890, he served as a professor of comparative anatomy. In 1891, he was appointed to the faculty of Columbia University and the American Museum of Natural History. In 1896, he became a professor of zoology at Columbia University. In 1908, he succeeded Morris Jesup as president of the Natural History Museum, a position he held until 1933. He led many expeditions in the Southwest United States, starting with the first excavations in Colorado and Wyoming in 1877. He also led expeditions in Mongolia, searching for human ancestors. Henry Osborn was a member of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States (1900), a foreign member of the Roya

Hunting Squirrels: Which .22 is for You? Lever-action, single-shot, bolt-action, semi-automatic and pump. When we picture a .22-caliber rifle in our mind, one of these traditional guns is sure to appear. However, a new style is emerging as a great sporting tool. Lately, .22-caliber rifles are being built on tactical rifle frames. These guns may look a lot different, but when it comes to putting a round in a squirrel’s ear they all work the same. With squirrel season in full swing in the Midwest, what better time to take a look at America’s favorite rifle caliber. Literally billions of rounds of .22-caliber rimfire ammunition are fired each year. Most of it is shot while plinking and hunting squirrels and rabbits, though small varmints like groundhogs are also heavily hunted with rimfire guns Today, almost all rimfire ammo in common use is of .22-caliber, with only a few limited exceptions (like the .17 HMR). This was not always the case, however. One of the most sought-after "Yankee"

Crocodile hunting. Egypt, 1870s. Photographer: Henri Bechard Henri Bashar opened a studio in Cairo and sold tourists photographs with views of ancient Egyptian structures. From the 1st millennium BC to the 4th century AD (Roman period), the ancient Egyptians mummified millions of animals, most of the mummies were classified by Egyptologists as ‘votive sacrifices’ to gods and goddesses. Before the construction of the Aswan Dam, Nile crocodiles were found throughout the Nile. Moreover, in ancient times crocodiles were found in Israel, Lebanon and Syria. The ancient Egyptians hunted crocodiles for their mummies, scientists have come to this conclusion. The crocodile, from which the ancient Egyptians made one of the mummies, was not grown in special conditions at the temple. Scientists from France and the United States came to this conclusion after studying the remains using an elementary particle accelerator, the Journal of Archaeological Sciences writes. Experts examined the cro

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..

Lever-action rifles may seem antiquated, but for some folks, they offer a great combination of hunting aptitude and self-defense effectiveness. The X Model from Henry takes their proven action and adds a bit of a tactical flair with synthetic furniture, a short rail at the end of the fore-end, and a threaded muzzle. Muzzle brakes or a suppressor can be easily added, and even for a camp rifle, being able to easily attach a light is a well-thought-out attribute. It’s a short, handy rifle that can be operated quickly and maneuvered well in tight spaces and cycled very quickly. Your caliber selection will depend on your needs. If you’re dealing with lots of bears as well as two-legged threats, the .45-70 will be the way to go. Otherwise, the .357 or .44 mag options offer plenty of power for hunting deer, and offer increased magazine capacity. Not to mention that the increased barrel length will give you better performance than a handgun will, with mild to little recoil. MSRP: $970

Anschutz 1516 .22 WMR: A Hunter's Honest Review As a hunter who's been tracking game and spending time at the range for years, I have a soft spot for quality rimfire rifles. The Anschutz 1516 in .22 WMR has been on my radar for a while, and after putting it through its paces, here's my no-nonsense take: The Good (Where the 1516 Shines): Unrivaled Accuracy: This is where the Anschutz truly stands out. The match-grade barrel and precise manufacturing translate to incredibly tight groups. Even at 100 yards, it's consistently accurate, making it a top choice for small game hunting and target shooting. I have to say that the .22 WMR version of the 1516 may actually be better that it's .22 LR brother in this instance. Exceptional Trigger: The trigger is crisp, light, and adjustable. It's a joy to use and significantly contributes to the rifle's overall accuracy. High-Quality Build: Anschutz rifles are known for their craftsmanship, and the 1516 is no exception. The fit and finish are ex

Hvad bestemmer valget af kaliber? Så lad os starte med det enkleste. Hvad bestemmer valget af kaliber i første omgang? Men vi gættede ikke, ikke på grund af, hvem vi skal jagte, men på grund af lovgivningen. Hvis du i Amerika kan købe en kaliber og jage alt med den (fra mus til bjørn), og vælge den rigtige kugle- og pulvervægt, så vil dette ikke fungere for os. Jagtregler i Den Russiske Føderation begrænser i høj grad jægeren og foreskriver, hvad han kan og ikke kan bruge til at jage dette eller det dyr. Det gælder især overraskende små kalibre. Derfor læser vi først jagtreglerne i Den Russiske Føderation, og først derefter begynder vi at vælge en kaliber, som virkelig vil afhænge af typen af ​​vildt og typen af ​​jagt på det. 3.jpg Kaliber .22RL I russisk nomenklatur er dette en kaliber på 5,6 mm med kammer til en rimfire (sidefire) patron. De, der er født i USSR, husker sådanne våben meget godt, da ikke en eneste skydetime på en skoleskydebane var komplet uden den. Det blev og bli

The Lost Art of Hunting I’ve never been in a hunting situation where my success determined whether or not I got to eat that night, but I’ve been close. When I was in college, I usually had just enough money to buy a burger off the value menu on any given evening. And I was OK with that. The only problem besides being a poor college kid was the fact that I much preferred to put that change toward .22 rimfire cartridges and gas to get to my favorite squirrel hunting woods. Ryan, Bandit, Squeaky and I would pitch in for a group squirrel-gathering effort at least once a week when the fall season was open. This also gave us a good reason to skip class. After hunting, we’d prepare wild game dinners right there in the little dormitory kitchen. We ate squirrel and dumplings, squirrel and cream of mushroom soup, Cajun-fried squirrel, lemon-pepper squirrel and of course, Kentucky Burgoo. Often as not, we ended up feeding a half-dozen other residents who smelled hot grease and gathered around ou

Hunting the Snowshoe Hare It’s hard to imagine a winter day spent more pleasantly than stalking through Alaska’s taiga hunting the snowshoe hare. There’s not a better reason to explore the reaches of our well-forested state, and there’s not an animal that’s better-suited to live there. Some days you find them, some days you don’t. To me this dichotomy represents the greatest draw of hunting hares: They’re routinely elusive but occasionally attainable, at once an animal that children’s hunting dreams are made of yet still wholly capable of making even the wisest feel like an idiot. I hunt hares exclusively with a rimfire rifle equipped with open sights. Yes, beagles and shotguns and loyal compatriots would probably be more effective, but I prefer to give the hare his refuges of invisibility and speed. If I can bag him in spite of those advantages, I like to think I’ve surmounted some pinnacle of woodsmanship and truly deserve the added weight in my vest. Or maybe I’m just full of it
