Reloading for 270 Winchester
It’s hard to imagine today with our magnums and short magnums, but the 270 used to be the king of high speed. It’s is still a very potent deer and elk rifle today and my personal favorite of the most common calibers. Not only does it offer enough power to take a deer in the…

The 26 Nosler
Shot Show 2014 is going on right now, and Nosler just released a new cartridge, the 26 Nosler. It’s a screaming fast 6.5mm cartridge, throwing a 129 grain bullet at 3,400 fps and a 140 at 3,300. Those are some very fast speeds in a very slippery, popular with target shooters 6.5mm size. Conveniently, the…

T97.ca FTU (Flat Top Upper) Review
It’s here. The same guys behind M14.ca have started to produce aftermarket parts for the T97. If you look back to my review on the Norinco T97, you’ll see that there are 2 issues I had with the rifle: ergonomics and optics mounting. Simply put, the carry handle on the T97 precludes low mounting of…

Remington 783 Review
I’ve wanted to do this review since the 783 was revealed at SHOT Show. I feel like Remington’s 710 and 770 rifles were missteps, with too many corners cut and I was excited at the prospect of a new budget bolt action rifle to compete with the Savage Axis. What I noticed, when I read…

Remington Insulated Gloves Mini Review
This is only a quick review since there’s only so much to say about a pair of gloves. I typically hunt in -20 to -30 degree Celsius weather (-4 to -22F), and it can be a bit tough for gloves to keep up. With these gloves, I found that the insulation didn’t breath enough. From…

2013 in Review

萝莉控T97评论 (外国人的角度)
Prefer English? See my T97 review in English. I added this review in Mandarin Chinese since there was a lot of interest from Chinese users about this rifle and a forum user of Baidu did much of the hard work translating for me. 你好中国的读者们。 这是对萝莉控T97的评论,是QBZ95的出口版。 请大家注意这个型号的步枪是不同于中国人民解放军现用的军事版。 萝莉控T97(或者是叫97式)已经有四年的历史了。Canada Ammo 公司本来打算秘密的引进它,但是之后却被RCMP评论道这东西被发现可以很容易的改装成全自动的。于是North Sylva重新设计了这只枪,更新了扳机组的机械结构设计来解决这个问题并使得这支枪成功的拿到了一个叫“T97NSR”的FRT(不知道是什么的简写)并引进加拿大以一千刀的价格在2013年9月开始发售。那么既然现在等待终于结束了,这支枪如何?下面列出了一堆照片,所以如果你想要知道关于这支枪的基本信息的话,记得看一下下面的链接。 我的摄像(对不起, 那个摄像是英文) 萝莉控Type 97 NSR…

Where to Buy Used Guns in Canada
Buying used firearms comes with a unique set of challenges. Compared with new firearms, you’ve got to deal with a lack of warranty, unknown prior owner modifications or abuse, and frustrating seller ignorance of the rifle they’re trying to sell. That said, the used market can be the only way to fly if you’re looking…
