Howa Classic Heavybarrel Varminter

Howa Classic Heavybarrel Varminter

Howa was a Japanese industrial machinery company that got involved in firearms manufacturing during WWII. Since then, they’ve become a mainstay for civilian shooters by specializing in heavy barreled hunting rifles that are known for quality, accuracy, and being easy on the wallet. You might think of them as the Honda of rifles.
With it’s heavy barrel construction, laminated stock with cooling vents and a raised cheek rest, and 2-stage match trigger, the M1500 has been recognized by many as a natural sniper rifle. In fact, the Japanese Nation Police Agency adopted the “Varminter” as its official sniper rifle. It’s also reportedly used by Ukraine’s Special Forces.

The rifle itself is pretty plain Jane, which is kind of the beauty of it. Its laminated stock offers some head turning flair, as well as utility. The short action, magazine conversion capabilities, and heavy barrel configurations (stainless or blue) are nice features. The rifle also comes chambered in two of our favorite calibers, .243 Win and .308 Win.

Savage 12-BVSS

Savage 12-BVSS

For many years, Savage has built quite a business around rifles that cater to the target and varmint-hunting niche. Bull barrels, aggressive styling, and tactical stocks are nothing new for this manufacturer. Savage was doing this before it become cool.
One of Savage’s greatest “claims to fame” when it comes to long distance shooting is its famous AccuTrigger. Developed by Savage Arms in 2002, lots of competitive shooters swear by this trigger system and its user-friendly design.

Every shooter has his preference in terms of pull weight, creep, and over-travel. The AccuTrigger’s core promise is that shooters can customize their trigger to suit their shooting style.

The 12-BVVS comes outfitted with a heavy stainless steel barrel, which is fluted, no less. It’s available in .22-250 Rem, .223 Rem, and .308 Win, quite the donut hole in terms of calibers, but it makes sense when you consider that varmint hunters (the official target market for this rifle) will prefer the smaller calibers, while long-range shooters will opt for the .308 Win.

Ruger Hawkeye Varmint Target Rifle

Ruger Hawkeye Varmint Target Rifle

With a laminated stock, this “Varmint Target” rifle just looks like a piece of precision equipment, capable of sharpshooting excellence, which it is.
If you’re already a fan of the Strum and Ruger rifle catalog, you’ll recognize the familiar integral scope mounts, which are basically just indentions machined into the top of the receiver. There’s nothing new about the scope mounts, but this is still a feature worth pointing out.

The heavy contour barrel has ben cold hammer-forged and, most importantly, features “ultra-precise” rifling that delivers better accuracy and easier cleaning. The Hawkeye Varmint Target also features Ruger’s 2-stage trigger, consisting of a “take up” stage, followed by a crisp tension stage.

Chambered in .308 Win and 6.5 Creedmoor, this is a finely tuned piece of target drilling machinery. However, it doesn’t quite have all the bells and whistles offered by the Remington 700 VTR,

Remington 700 VTR

Remington 700 VTR

The “VTR” in this version of Remington’s venerable Model 700 stands for “Varmint Tactical Rifle.” Why would someone hunting varmints even need to get very tactical? It’s not like a gray fox is going to return fire or anything.
Either way, you’ll notice that there’s a strong link between rifles designed for precision shooting and those designed for varmint hunting. In the off-the-shelf market, they’re one in the same.

The 700 VTR comes chambered in both .260 Remington and .308 Winchester, both excellent rounds for shooting at long distances, as we’ve already established.

Other perks offered by the 700 VTR are Remington’s X-Mark externally adjustable trigger, the “Super Cell” recoil pad, a contoured 22” barrel, a picatinny rail system, and a tactical barrel with muzzle breaks.
While it’s not exactly “cheap” by most standards, it does have all of the upgrades in one nice and tidy package. Upgrading all of these pieces individually would make this a $2,000 custom rifle, and you still wouldn’t have a scope on it.

BREAKING – Putin Sends THIS Message Directly to the American People. What Do You Think?

Obama’s administration, the mainstream media, and liberals in general continue to point fingers at Russia over the election results, but Russia has had enough.

“Frankly speaking, we are tired of lies about Russian hackers that continue to be spread in the United States from the very top. The Obama administration launched this misinformation half a year ago, in a bid to play up to the required nominee at the November presidential election and, having failed to achieve the desired effect, has been trying to justify its failure by taking it out with a vengeance on Russian-US relations,” stated Russia’s foreign policy website.

Many of the American people are tired of listening to the left continuously say that the Russian hacking is the reason Donald Trump is president.
Not only is this offensive to Russia, which has continuously stated it had nothing to do with the information given to WikiLeaks, but this is also offensive to Americans who worked hard to make sure Donald Trump was elected

WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange has also come forward many times and said he did not get the emails from any government and, specifically, not from Russia. It wasn’t a “hack;” it was a leak, meaning it came from someone on the inside.
However, the liberals would rather point fingers at Russia and say they influenced the election, creating a rocky relationship between Obama-led America and Russia. Thankfully, we only have a couple more days to deal with that.

Donald Trump will soon be inaugurated as the next president, and he and Putin have already had many talks to strengthen the ties of our two countries. Obama knows this, and by implicating Russia, he is only trying to make us turn against Trump.Vladimir Putin has stated that if Washington is moving to take hostile steps, then Russia will respond, but many Americans do not want tense relations or war to break out! I don’t know why Obama is making it his life’s mission to ruin everything Trump has planned, but he’s only hurting the American people.

One can only hope that Obama won’t do anything drastic during his final days as president. He should think about the American people and leave Russia alone because we should have peaceful ties with Russia if we can. The Americans who refuse to believe the lies of the Democrats and the mainstream media know Russia did not have anything to do with the WikiLeaks information, which simply showed us the truth about Hillary Clinton and her campaign.

Thankfully, Donald Trump will soon be in the White House, and all the terrible things Obama implemented against this country will be changed. We will be a great country once again!

Paratrooper Version of the  SAW? FN’s  New M249S Para

The new M249S Para from FN offers shooters a semi-auto version of a classic military firearm.

Building on the popularity of the already released M249S semi-automatic version of the SAW light machine gun, FN is releasing the M249S Para (or Paratrooper) model. Originally developed for airborne troops in its original form, the Para is fourth addition to the company’s Military Collector Series of semi-automatic versions of classic military firearms.
According to John Keppeler, senior vice president of sales and marketing for FN America, LLC, “You’ll notice only two major differences between the semi- and full-auto versions (of the M249S Para) – the barrel length and reconfigured internal components to change the rifle’s operation from open-bolt to closed-bolt. Authenticity was critical in this series and we changed as little as possible.”
According to a press release on the Para, the rifle features a machine gun-grade, 16.1-inch, cold hammer-forged barrel, closed bolt for semi-automatic only operation, classic M249 flip-up feed tray, integrated steel bipod, robust gas-piston system, and the iconic telescoping and rotating buttstock, making it lighter and more compact. Rifles will be available in either black or Flat Dark Earth (FDE).
