    Caldwell E-Max Low Profile Power Ear Muff Review

    Powered Earmuffs When it comes to hearing protection at the range, there are 3 major choices: earplugs, headset or muffs, and powered muffs. Earplugs generally offer the greatest noise reduction, followed by passive headsets, and finally arriving at powered muffs, although some higher end units offer decent NRR. Earplugs usually good for 32 dB NRR,…

  • Gryphon Energetics Thundershot Review

    Gryphon Energetics Thundershot Review

    Thundershot is a Canadian manufactured, binary exploding target. Binary exploding targets were approved for use in Canada in February, 2014 and Gryphon Energetics was the first Canadian manufacturer on the scene. While many retailers started offering Tannerite or Shockwave at first, many more now offer Thundershot instead. I asked one retailer in a small town…

  • Canada’s Cheapest AR-15 Muzzle Brakes Compared

    Canada’s Cheapest AR-15 Muzzle Brakes Compared

    Inexpensive Brakes Compared I’ve got a comparison with 2 brakes: the Jerry Miculek 3 port brake as well as another 3 port brake from Colonel Mustard’s (I picked up a similar 308 brake for my Savage 10TR from them) These are both inexpensive muzzle brakes and they both make a pretty big difference in recoil,…

  • TulAmmo 308 Winchester 150 grn FMJ Review

    TulAmmo 308 Winchester 150 grn FMJ Review

    Most of the 308 in my area is right around $1/cartridge. Even PMC 147 grn FMJ is $18.99 per box of 20. So when I found Tula available online at $12/box, or a bit less if you buy more, I wanted to try some. It’s very similar in price to the Norinco 147 grn FMJ…

  • Tula Ammo Canada

    Tula Ammo Canada

    You may have noticed TulammoCanada on CanadianGunNutz or in other places. It’s super cheap, steel-cased, non-corrosive ammo from Russia. Within my Service Rifle matches and 3 gun matches, it always bothered me that I was throwing away ~100 well-prepped, reloaded brass cases with every match. For 223 ammo, you’ve got to resize, remove the primer…
