  • All Seasons 100 lb Hercules Road Feeder

    All Seasons Feeders have a reputation for reliability and durability.  We have used them extensively on our deer lease for a number of years and they just run – day after day.  When deciding upon a new road feeder the obvious choice was All Seasons.  We ultimately purchased the 100 lb Hercules over the standard…

  • Savage Precision Carbine .308

    This article is part one of a long-term field test of the Savage Precision Carbine.  Now that it is legal to hunt whitetail deer in Texas with a suppressor, I was searching for a suitable host platform.  I quickly settled on the .308 cartridge because of the availability of factory threaded barrels in that caliber…

  • AAC Model 7 300 Blackout

    The AAC Model 7 300 Blackout rifle is breaking my heart.  It reminds me of the hot new girl in town that everyone is after who turned out to be hard to live with. The AAC Model is essentially a Remington Model 7 fitted with the AAC .30 caliber barrel.  It is a short, lightweight,…

  • 6.8 SPC II Custom Build Rifle

    There have been countless wildcat cartridges over the years.  One recent trend has been the various efforts to modify the standard AR15 to shoot a heavier, more lethal bullet.  The crazy hype surrounding the 300 Blackout is but one example.  For my money, the 6.8 SPC is the best of the lot for general all-around…

  • Plot Watcher Pro

    Plot Watcher Pro Being a long-time believer in game cameras, I was intrigued by the “plot watcher” time lapse cameras.  I contacted Day 6 Outdoors and they were kind of enough to send me their Plot Watcher Pro for evaluation during whitetail deer season.

  • Successful weekend of hunting with Nosler 280AI and Zeiss Victory FL 4-16×50

    They say faith in one’s equipment is everything.. Well, after a weekend of testing with a Nosler 280 AI and Zeiss FL 4-16×50 with AVS elevation turret, I would say I have it. Sunday morning.. Deer weren’t moving where I was at on Sunday morning, and I had passed on several nice bucks Friday and…

  • Tikka T3 Lite .270 WSM

    Tikka T3:  I was looking for a new deer rifle and kind of approached it differently this time.  The first thing I did was to study the ballistic tables and the .270WSM really stood out.  This cartridge can push a 140gr bullet at 3,100 fps – flat shooting.  At 300 yards (with a 200 yard…
