Choosing the Best Caliber for Whitetail Deer Hunting: Expert Guide for Serious Hunters. When it comes to whitetail deer hunting, choosing the right rifle caliber isn’t just a matter of preference—it’s the difference between a clean kill and a long, frustrating track job. Whether you’re hunting thick timber in Michigan or open plains in Kansas, your caliber choice must match your terrain, shooting distance, and personal comfort with recoil. This guide breaks down the most effective calibers for whitetail deer, based on real-world performance, ballistic data, and decades of field experience. --- 🎯 What Makes a Caliber “Best” for Whitetail? Before diving into specific cartridges, let’s define what “best” actually means in the field: • Knockdown Power: Minimum 800 ft-lbs of energy at impact is recommended for deer-sized game. • Manageable Recoil: Less than 20 ft-lbs of recoil helps avoid flinching and improves shot placement. • Accuracy: Flat trajectory and consistent performance at

Pros: Reliability: The Vulkan SXR has shown great reliability during my testing. The semi-automatic action cycles smoothly, and I experienced no jams or misfeeds, even with various types of ammunition. This is critical for any hunt, where a second shot may be necessary. Accuracy: With a 650mm barrel, I was surprised by the rifle's accuracy. At ranges up to 100 meters, the groups were tight, allowing for precise shot placement. This caliber is known for its flat trajectory, and the Vulkan SXR does it justice. Comfortable Ergonomics: The rifle features a well-designed stock that fits comfortably against the shoulder. The adjustable cheek piece is a thoughtful addition, allo

Blaser R8 Ultimate Huntec Rifle in .308 Win and 6.5 Creedmoor Review I recently had the opportunity to put the Blaser R8 Ultimate Huntec rifle to the test, and I’d like to share my thoughts based on my experience with it. Admittedly, I had high expectations given the reputation of the Blaser brand, and I am excited to discuss both the positives and negatives that I encountered. Pros: Modular Design: One of the standout features of the R8 is its modular system. I love that I can easily switch between calibers, specifically .308 Win and 6.5 Creedmoor, without needing specialized tools. This flexibility is perfect for someone like me who enjoys various types of hunting and shooting scenarios. Precision and Accuracy: Both calibers deliver exceptional precision. The .308 Win is a proven performer, making it ideal for larger game. Meanwhile, the 6.5 Creedmoor is renowned for its flat trajectory and minimal recoil, which made shooting at longer distances a less intimidating task for me.

Idaho reports "slightly above average" survival rates in mule deer and elk In Idaho, mule deer fawn and elk calf survival rates were up, following the latest data collected from animals outfitted with tracking collars. To date, 84% of fawns and 92% of calves have survived through the end of winter, putting their statewide winter survival rate “slightly above average,” according to the Idaho Department of Fish and Game (IDFG). “From a statewide perspective, winter survival is tracking very close to what we saw in past two years,” said Toby Boudreau, IDFG deer and elk program coordinator. “If we continue on that trajectory, that's good news because we ended up with above-average winter survival in both 2019-20 and 2020-21. And every mild winter we can stack together is another step in the right direction for our mule deer herds.” Currently, there are 222 mule deer fawns and 201 elk calves outfitted with tracking collars.

IT'S NO SECRET that I'm addicted to studying and sharing the rich history of American archery and bowhunting. Today I'm focusing on Roy Case (1888-1986), rightfully known as "The Father of Wisconsin Bowhunting" and the man widely credited with coining the term "bowhunter." He's also recognized as the first-ever licensed archer to tag a deer during any state's firearms season. Archery history was made December 6, 1930, when Case arrowed a spike buck in Vilas County, Wisconsin. At that time, he was shooting a longbow and wood arrows equipped with steel broadheads of his own design -- the Case Kiska hunting head, which he made and sold nationwide between the 1920s and 1950s. He also wrote and published stories about his various archery hunts in "Ye Sylvan Archer" magazine. Also noteworthy is the fact Case worked to establish America's first bow-only deer season in his home state (1934). His work with hunting heads helped establish modern day legal broadhead standards that are still in

HOLY ELK! Look what we found at the Kilkenny Castle in Ireland. They are REAL antlers from a prehistoric Irish elk! AND (according to our guide) they are mounted on the wall at their actual height! They are the largest deer that ever lived, and went extinct between 8,000 and 6,000 years ago. They earned the name Irish elk because so many bodies were preserved in Irish peat bogs. These massive ungulates weighed between weighed 990-1,520 pounds and stood as tall as an Alaskan moose at 6 feet 11 inches at the shoulders! The size of their antlers was utterly staggering. In fact, that is very likely the cause of their extinction. Many agree that their huge antler size may have contributed to a mineral deficiency which ultimately killed the animal off.

Scientists clone first Arctic wolf What if scientists could bring back extinct or endangered species? Well, that’s exactly what these Chinese researchers are trying to do with the first cloned Arctic wolf. The pup, dubbed Maya 2.0, is now 100 days old and thriving, according to FreeThink. “After two years of painstaking efforts, the Arctic wolf was cloned successfully,” said Mi Jidong, Sinogene Biotechnology’s general manager, during a press conference in Beijing. “It is the first case of its kind in the world.” The project is a collaboration between Sinogene Biotechnology, a Beijing-based biotech, and the polar theme park Harbin Polarland. Researchers used skin cells donated by Maya, an Arctic wolf at Harbin Polarland. From those cells, 136 embryos were created using female dog eggs. Out of those, 85 were transferred into seven beagle surrogates, according to FreeThink. In July, a healthy cloned Arctic wolf was born. While animal cloning isn’t new, it’s not easy. In fact, when S

Night hunting presents unique challenges. We discuss the challenges as well as the opportunities available with new technology. As discussed in previous Hogman Outdoors blogs, night hunting presents a unique set of challenges. Nocturnal animals are nocturnal for a very simple reason - they prefer, and in often cases are uniquely adept at, hunting, roaming and prowling at night. In the case of cats and coyotes, their eyes have an increased number of rods, as opposed to cones. Rods increase the ability to intake minimal ambient light and see as they do in full daylight; these animals in effect have their own unique "night vision", allowing them to be very effective at night hunting. It is often times population expansion/presence of human activity that drives these animals to nocturnal behavior. Hogs, on the other hand, are nocturnal for an entirely different reason, they prefer to avoid the heat and UV rays of the sun. While active during the day in the winter months, they w

Cingulata, part of the superorder Xenarthra, is an order of armored New World placental mammals. Dasypodids and chlamyphorids, the armadillos, are the only surviving families in the order. Two groups of cingulates much larger than extant armadillos (maximum body mass of 45 kg (100 lb) in the case of the giant armadillo) existed until recently: pampatheriids, which reached weights of up to 200 kg (440 lb) and chlamyphorid glyptodonts, which attained masses of 2,000 kg (4,400 lb)or more. The cingulate order originated in South America during the Paleocene epoch about 66 to 56 million years ago, and due to the continent's former isolation remained confined to it during most of the Cenozoic. However, the formation of a land bridge allowed members of all three families to migrate to southern North America during the Pliocene or early Pleistocene as part of the Great American Interchange. After surviving for tens of millions of years, all of the pampatheriids and giant glyptodonts apparent

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

Utah cites hunters for killing wrong animals Every year, multiple hunters are cited for killing the wrong animal in Utah during cow elk season. While many of the incidents end up being more of a case of misidentification than poaching, it is still happening on an annual basis. In fact, several recent investigations conducted by the Utah Division of Wildlife Resources (UDWR) found that hunters shot either the wrong sex or wrong species and some are “so excited to see an animal that they make poor shooting decisions,” according to the agency. Here are some recent examples during the 2022-23 antlerless elk hunts, which began in August and runs through Jan. 31: Weber County: A man shot a moose instead of an elk during his hunt. Emery County: A hunter shot a branch-antlered bull elk, thinking it was a spike elk. Then he also shot a spike elk, thinking it was the same elk. He was charged with a misdemeanor. Sevier County: Officers investigated two cases where a hunter shot too many elk.

Montana FWP confirms CWD in HD 405 Chronic wasting disease (CWD) has spread to Montana’s hunting district 405. Last week, Montana Fish, Wildlife and Parks (FWP) confirmed the first case of the fatal disease in a mule deer buck since the agency began statewide testing over three years ago, according to the Great Falls Tribune. “Out of the 100 deer sampled there over the past three hunting seasons, none tested positive for CWD,” said FWP. “FWP has conducted rotating surveillance for CWD throughout the state for several years, and HD 405 is within this year’s priority surveillance area.” The disease is already prevalent within the state and across the West. In fact, FWP has held special CWD hunts as part of its active management strategy. “Hunters are our best tools to manage CWD,” said wildlife biologist Ryan Rauscher. “Sampling is completely voluntary, so when we ask, please do.” If you are hunting in Region 4 and would like to have your harvest sampled for CWD testing, here are

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).

Tying Up Creating a drop-shot rig is easy. A small finesse worm is usually used for finicky bass, but always choose long, slender plastics that are free of legs and pinchers that can twist your line. Drop-shotting favorites are traditionally modest, straight plastic worms and minnows; the softer, the better. Some companies are now using “super plastics,” which are incredibly buoyant and allow the lure to float up, rather than settle, on a drop-shot rig, and can help trigger more bites. Z-Man Fishing Products’ ElaZtech lures are a good example. You need to match those small baits with an equally small hook. In snag-free areas, simply nose-hooking the worm is most effective, so a light 1/0 hook is a good starting point. Most die-hard drop-shotters rely on the Gamakatsu split-shot / drop-shot hook. You can Texas-rig your plastics when fishing around brush or heavy cover but, again, stay with a fairly light hook. The VMC WM worm hook is a good one. In any case, always tie your hook w

To find out, I polled hunters who find themselves in the woods for work and play … biologists, editors and industry folks, and here’s what they said: Every great hunting town needs a variety of game.

How to Track a Buck in the Snow Have You Ever Slipped Up on a Deer in the Snow? No doubt about it, the vast majority of whitetail hunting today is done from some type of elevated platform – treestand, tripod or shooting house. That wasn’t always the case. To this day, many northwoods hunters still practice the age-old art of tracking in the snow. So can you, and here are a few tips to help you along the trail. To follow a track you first need to find one, and the more ground you cover the better the odds. Typically, the big woods hunters will drive the backwoods roads before daylight. These are often dirt logging roads, some accessible only by 4WD vehicle, which is what you want. Less Traffic, More Deer You’ll usually find an inverse correlation – the less vehicle traffic, the more deer traffic.

The waters between Cairs Island and Lizard island provide the perfect environment for these rare fish. The warm waters allow black marlin to reproduce at a faster rate here than at other warm coastal regions in the Pacific. If you've never fished for black marlin, you may want to head down for a fishing vacation as well as a fun Australian scuba diving experience. 9. Tanzania - Africa Tanzania is famous for many things from the tallest peak in Africa, Mt. Kilimanjaro, and the amazing safari experiences available here.

A deer may have passed COVID-19 to a person, study suggests The virus is widely circulating in white-tailed deer. Until now, no humans are known to have been infected by deer. A white-tailed deer in Canada likely infected a human with coronavirus, according to new research. The case, reported in a preprint journal, would be the first known instance of a COVID-19 spillover from a white-tailed deer—a common species throughout North America—into another species. Previous work has shown that the virus is circulating widely in U.S. white-tailed deer populations. Before this latest report, however, the virus appeared to be very similar to that found in nearby humans, suggesting that the deer likely were sickened by us—not the other way around. Now, a team of 32 government and academic researchers in Canada has concluded in a new work posted in BioRxiv that in late 2021, more than a dozen white-tailed deer in Canada had been infected with coronavirus that had a constellation of “mutations

Hardware: Colt Anaconda by Dick Williams - Monday, November 15, 2021 Hardware: Colt Anaconda For some folks, the sight of a scoped bolt-action rifle or elegant over/under shotgun instantly makes them think of hunting.

In the case of Colt’s new stainless steel Anaconda with an 8-inch barrel, visions of big-game animals immediately popped into my mind. Knowing the Anaconda is chambered in .44 Magnum, and seeing the overall size of the new revolver up close, made me focus on the largest of the animals I’ve hunted. This is clearly a handgun and caliber one could use worldwide on any land animal. Colt Anaconda .44 Magnum Revolver Yes, the Anaconda does remind you of its smaller relative, the new Python, with its world-famous ventilated rib, full-length lug and highly polished stainless-steel finish. A little closer look reveals the fully adjustable rear sight, wide hammer spur, open-back rubber Hogue grips, re
