His dad was cut from a true hunter's cloth with a passion for taking game, and he knew I had never Killed ‘a mule deer before. He was as determined as I to see my first one fall. Late in the morning, we were working along the spine of a low ridge when a big-bodied buck suddenly rose from the brush across the canyon; his rack imprinted upon the gray sky My new guide excitedly drug me to some rocks in preparation to shoot. Ranged, the buck was 300 yards away. The deet looked good, but I thought maybe I had passed on bigger.

We recieved a huge ‘number of letters from our readers and some are published here. As for myself, ‘my prized posessions as a boy were my toy guns and later, a Daisy BB gun. AS a parent, I'm doing as my father did with ime: let the kid have fan playing cop or soldier but with real firearms (air guns included) the rules of gun safety ap- ply and they are to be handled with the utmost respect and seriousness. ~James Card, Managing Editor [As soon as we stop allowing kids to play with guns we have begun to lose the battle and magazines such as Gun Digest will be toast. People are not parenting today. I raised two boys with toy guns and real guns about the house and there never was a problem. Tkept a pistol bedside and they never touched it; they knew better. That ‘was off limits, As soon as they were old enough to comprehend, | took ‘them to a range and showed them the power of a hollow point .22 LR and a shotgun on water-filled jugs. When they grew up they told me that was the most impressive thing that I could have done. I explained to them that ‘our bodies have a great deal of water and a bullet would react the same way. Their eyes were as big as saucers. ‘That was S0 plus years ago. —George A. Fogg Yarmouth, Maine Thad never even considered the points you raised. If someone had asked me that, cold, T would have said, “Of course; why not?" [don’t have a definitive answer, but as a responsible gun owner, it does give me reason to pause. Your question reminds me of how disturbed | am when I see firearms instructors, match directors, safety officers and any num- ber of people in videos handling dum- my guns and dry-fire pistols as if they were toys. Muzzles are flying every which-way, fingers are going in and out of trigger guards indiscriminately, and so on. I, myself, have several such tools for training purposes and I'm very deliberate about observing the rules of firearms safety, no differently than I do with actual firearms. —Michael Brechner via email (One afternoon my wife had a child come over to play with our grandson. This child, like most kids, was very curious and had to see what was in the basement. He went down and found one of my toy guns sitting on top of a display cabinet. It was a .38 Special toy cap gun. He picked it up and pointed it at my grandson who knew that you don’t point any gun at anybody and he told his grandmother what his friend did. She immeditealy defused the situation. The child told his mother later that the grandfather hhas a lot of guns and we played with them. Luckly my wife explained what had happened but the mother was very upset that her baby was playing ina house that had guns in it ‘Unfortunatly most kids in this, day and age are not exposed to any Kind of guns, let alone toy guns. We should be careful and teach kids safe handling of any gun be it a toy or real gun, Bad habits are hard to break if not caught at an early age. When I watch the Andy Griffith Show it takes me back to a simple time when certain American values were not questioned, But to answer your question should Kids play with toy guns? It is a hard question to just say yes or no. —Arthur Cecchini Garrison, N.Y. Kids don’t need a gun of any kind to play gun’s. A stick or a finger can be a single-action six gun or a modern, ‘Mini Gun. My digit has fired millions of rounds in the last 68 years. Robert Martin via email Thave not allowed my daughter or son to play with toy guns as I wanted them to respect a gun asa tool. Also, living near the beach in southern California, there are a lot of people that feel guns are not acceptable. I ‘gfew up on a ranch and hunting was a way of life. My children are learning gun safety from me just like I learned from my granddad, If you ask them what a gun is for, their answer is a tool just like any other, but it has to be respected, Grant Suetzie via email “Show me the winner and I'll ask who the trainer was.” It is a parent's responsibility to teach the importance of gun discipline; what is real, what isa toy, what a gun can do, and how to handle them. These folks who con- demn before investigation will breed a society of persons who do not respect guns, or the importance of owning a weapon. I have three children who knew these things by age 6. —Paul A. Braddock via email ‘The cap gun versus real gun argument is nothing but a political correctness ploy. Growing up in the 50s, westerns were very popular. As kids we got to see the bad guy’ get shot and the good guys win. At playtime we would put on our holsters and cap pistols 0 out side and shoot ‘em up. But we were also taught the difference be- tween real guns and cap guns. My dad ‘made me memorize the gun safety commandments, On my 7th birthday was given a .410 single-shot shot- gun, I was allowed to hunt by myself after proving to my dad I was safety conscious. I still enjoyed the cap guns and the play time with my friends where we shot it out. But I was trained to know the difference between the two. The biggest influence my dad made in my developing mind was to take me out back and shoot a mellon with my shotgun and allow me to see the devastation done, Take the time and train a child and that child will gundigest.com {grow up not to fear firearms but to respect them for the tools they are. ‘—John W. Quirk It via email Everyone says kids need to be kept away from firearms but I believe this Is wrong. If we keep the guns from the kids who will be ready to pick up the mantle of defense when we need them? When I joined the Marine Corps in 1975, I knew about guns but not all my fellow Marines did, One from New York certainly did not. This lack of knowledge resulted in myself and ‘two others getting shot on the rifle range. One in the shoulder, one in buttocks and me in the leg. If ‘we don’t teach our kids, they turn out to be idiots and slaves. I don't know about everyone else but 1 want my family to be free. A. Mecann Dickson, Tenn. My young daughter, Savanna, age 10, does some shooting with me. I taught her gun safety on my own, as [used to be an IPSC range offi- cer, and she shoots a pink Crick- ‘ett .22. We also practice archery and shoot at our chickens with slingshots when they head for the garden or are crowing on the front porch! My little girl and I run around shooting Nerf guns at each other, and her friends join in if they come over to visit. Overall, I think that “playing guns" is great family fun, plus it provides exercise work- Ing off excess energy and valuable Insights into handling firearms. Kids learn about what guns do, and there is less mystery about the “big bad boogey gun,” since they learn to handle them safely. People who try to keep knowledge of guns away from their children just turn the guns into magical, mysterious and enticing objects. —Frank E.

It was adopted as the official U.S. military rifle cartridge in 1954, although guns for it were not ready until 1957, In power, the .308 Winchester is superior to the .300 Savage and almost equal to the .30-06. It delivers about 100 fps less muzzle velocity than the larger 30-06 with any given bullet weight Most authorities consider the .308 suitable for most North American big game, although it's on the light side for moose or brown bear.

Try your hand at long-range shooting. // By ick sones: hen the trigger broke, I men- tally called the shot center. Within a second, I rolled off the rifle and onto the spot- ting scope. My heart sank. ‘The target was still going down, but I had no interest in it. At 1,000 yards, there is no seeing the bullet holes. The only way the shooter knows where his shot went is when the target comes back up from the pits with a 3-inch white spotter stuck in the bullet hole. On, high mirage days, it's sometimes hard enough to see that 3-inch spotter. ‘My concer was the wind. I'd fired the previ ous shot with 15 clicks, or 7% minutes of right wind on my rifle. The mirage in the scope now indicated the wind was only worth about 10 clicks and it was falling. My shot was probably way out to the right side of the target, maybe a seven, or possibly a six. It would be easy to lose the match by shooting one six or seven. As I watched through the scope, the wind con- tinued to fall off, and it began to come in from. the left side. My target came up, and I grinned. got lucky. The wind had dropped off just as I fired, the shot and the spotter disc displayed a right side X, It was on the line, but it was still an X. 1 swung my spotting scope over to Steve Nelson's 14 | Gunbigest tempi MARCH 21,2014 target.

He was the only ‘guy in Service Rifle class I was worried about, and he was now 10 points down, | looked back at the wind and it was building stronger on the left side. This was clearly a wind change, and the right wind I'd been so comfort- able with through the relay was gone. I took off the right windage and began clicking on left wind ... 12, 13, 14 clicks of left wind after shoot- ing an X with 15 clicks of right wind, My change represented a movement of point of impact of 145 inches. The whole target frame is only 72 inches wide. I watched the wind a few more seconds while 1 was plotting my shot and noting my windage change. I dropped a round into the magazine, and dropped the bolt. I checked the wind again, cleared my vision, breathed the gun up into the target, broke the trigger and prayed. Back on the scope, the wind was still running steady at 14 mph. I plotted my call and shot location while I watched the target carrier expose my last shot. It was another X, this one in the center. It was the best moment ever in my High Power shoot- ing career, and I've told the story a thousand times. And when I say a moment, [literally mean 4 moment. The whole process described above John Updike With one of the “shootingist” ‘women in the world, Nancy Gallagher, on the Butner, Author Photo took less than one minute. That day, I won the North State Regional 1,000-Yard Championship at Camp Butner, N.C., for the second time in many years, Going Long ve been encouraged by the recent interest in long-range shooting. I enjoy al- most every form of shooting, but precision position shooting has always ap- pealed to me, While I like the precision of benchrest competition because it involves extremely accurate rifles and ammunition, I prefer a broader kind of long-range shooting, where the skill of the shooter is more emphasized. Most ‘of my competitive shooting career was in the field of NRA High Power, and my definition of long range might be different from someone from a different back- ground, In High Power, long-range shooting begins at 800 yards as part of the Palma course of fire. Mid-range shooting is done at 600 yards, and 200 and 300 yards are considered short range. For most hunters and recreational shooters, any range beyond 300 yards is often considered long range, and this comes with good reason. Any shot at a game animal beyond 300 yards should only be attempted if the shooter has a good working knowledge of the trajectory of his rifle, and some idea of the ef- fects of wind. The primary reason for this is that a properly sighted-in rifle can stay within 4 inches of point of aim out to about 300 yards. In most situations, staying within 4 inches of point of aim is a reasonable goal and will suffice when, hunting most large game. Knowing Your Zero Beyond 300 yards, almost all rifles begin to require holdover or elevation ad- justment, and the effects of the wind become much more critical. The ability to consistently make good shots at long range doesn’t require any special tal- cent. It only requires preparation and judgment based on that preparation. Once fundigest.com UNDERSTANDING TWIST Normally, twist rates for rifle barrels present few problems. At tuly long ranges, the wrong twist rate can completely destroy a rifle’ ability to shoot well because, as the bullet slows down, the spinning motion that stabilizes the bullet slows, and it ean become so slow the bullet be- comes unstable. Heavy bullets with high ballistic coefficients maintain stability longer and lose less speed than lighter bullets, but they have to be stabilized, and this requires a faster or tighter twist because they travel down the barrel slower. Abullet that’s under-stabilized ‘may shoot really well at 300 yards, but be all over the target at 1,000. With the relatively short bare of the MIA/M14 ffs, this was a problem. | used a 1:10 twist barrel and 180-grain Matchkings, At 1,000 yards they were sometimes slightly keyholed as they passed through the target.

During this time, the bullet is high above the range. farther Remember, to hit a target at 1,000 yards, had to bring the sights up 38 min- ner When you run th utes or about 34 feet. The trajectory takes the bullet even higher than this, so knob up a revolution the wind the bullet is traveling through is not just a few feet off the ground becomes a major ssue. Your When scoring and coaching at 1,000 yards, a good coach can pick up the trace rust not alo aang of the bullet as it drops through the tree line behind the berm at Camp Butner hooting. and follow it into the target. This is a lot of exposure to wind, Miss the wind 16 | Gunbiget tempos MARCH 2, 2014 qundigestic by 2 mph and you're going to shoot an eight or seven. Miss the wind by 5 mph, and you're off the paper with little chance of getting back on. This all means the little wind me- ter you hold in your hand may not help. It only measures the wind where you're standing, and that may be substantially different from the wind where your bullet has to pass. On KD, or Known Distance ranges, there are normally wind flags, but the apparent angle of the flag can fool you based on your position on the range and these ‘can be confusing, Probably the most reliable wind indicator is mirage, the refraction of light waves by heat. Mirage indicates wind direction, speed in frequency and amplitude. I find it on average to be the most reliable way to gauge wind. Under certain conditions of low light, there can be an absence of mi- rage, so It can’t always be counted on. To properly read the amplitude and frequency of the mirage, you need some sort of horizontal line to com- pare, I like to read the top edge of the target, provided that’s a straight edge, asit is ona KD range. At 600 yards, this Is a good representation of the space where the bullet spends the most time. Remember to read an area above the target because it will give you a more realistic reading. Ground speeds tend to be lower than higher elevations where the bullet trav- els. When you read mirage through a scope, do so with the scope focused at mid-range to give a better represen- tation of strength and direction, The common theory is that deflection at short range has more affect because it’s exaggerated by the distance, but it’s been my experience that wind defle tion has about the same effect through all the bullet’s light because when the bullet is further down range, it’s going slower and therefore more affected. In ‘competitive shooting situations, most long-range shooters fire their shots in a very short length of time, reducing the opportunity for wind changes. Learning to reliably read wind is time consuming, and I don’t think there’s any other way to do it but to shoot in the wind in situations where you know within seconds where your last bullet went. Until recently, the only way to do this was to shoot on a range with pit targets where someone pulls and marks your target on every shot. Now, there are several companies who make cameras that will transmit your group to your iPad, computer screen or smartphone. Most of these devices even flash or mark the last shot. This is going to make learning to read wind a lot easier for those dedi. cated enough to actually shoot and pay attention, Ammunition Ammunition choices for long-range shooting are different from hunting or ‘The bullseye on the conventional 2,000-yard target is 48 inches across and looks as emall ‘as the period placed at the end of a sentence at 1,000 yards.

Author Proto 18 | Gunigest nmin MARCH 27, 2014 WALL AMERICAN QUALITY, short-range shooting. The aerodynam- le characteristics of the bullet become an issue of paramount importance, since the bullet stays in the air for such along time. Up to about 300 yards, the shape of the bullet has little effect on trajectory. This is because the trajecto- ry at short ranges is based on the bullet at velocities very near muzzle velocity. Once you get past 600 yards, veloc ity falls off drastically and the falling rate of the bullet remains the same. AS an example, the 600 yard zero on my MIA .308 was just 13 minutes higher from 200 yards to 600 yards, but Thad to add another 28 minutes to be on at 1,000 yards. ‘The effects of wind are similar but quite a bit more linear. The faster the bullet travels, the less the effect of wind and gravity because the time of flight to the target is shorter. This Is why high velocity rounds are more popular with long-range shooters. The problem with the extreme end of high velocity cartridges is throat erosion. Most of the hyper-velocity cartridg- es will bum the accuracy out of a good barrel in under 1,000 rounds, while rounds like .308 Winchester might get as much a 5,000 rounds, Relating to barrel life is the practice among most conventional long-range shooters of not tailoring loads to a specific barrel/ rifle, With a practical barrel life of no more than 1,000 rounds, load testing in lots large enough for statistical rel- ‘evance to find the best load could pos- sibly use up the entire life of the rifle's barrel. The normal practice is to find a load that works well and use it without spending time on load development for a specific rifle/barrel combination. Putting It All Together Long-range shooting is still simply a matter of learning how to accomplish a task and using that knowledge to accomplish it. No two shots are ever quite the same, and successful long- range shooting requires good. skills and equipment, but it’s one of the most rewarding of all the aspects of shooting. Once you've put a shot ex- actly where you want at 1,000 yards, you'll always remember the feeling, and if you're like me, you'll want to do it more than one time. comm ll jie, aT f Cee Try A iN £2237 308] MARKSMANJRETICUES ‘THE MARKSMAN RETICLES HAVE BEEN DESIGNED TO MATCH ‘THE BALLISTICS OF MOST .223 AND .308 AMMO.

First, the cartridge must be accurate. Second, it must be capable of launching bullets that are able to buck the wind, and provide the flat trajectory that the long distance shooters love. Now, there are several cartridges that throughout history could be relied upon to deliver the level of accu- racy that target shooters want. The military has spared no expense when it comes to develop- ment of quality cartridges. The well-respected 30-06 Springfield set the benchmark for rifle cartridges well over a century ago, and in spite of the fact that the entire world changed around it, it is still a very viable cartridge. However, there have been some advancements in car- tridge design that have given us a trio of cases that are certainly going to appear at long-range matches for many years to come -308 Winchester Trying to find a cartridge to replace the 30-06 Springfield was no easy task for the U.S. military. After World War II, the advancements in smokeless pow- der indicated to our military ballisti- cians that the same terminal perfor- mance that the .30.06 delivered could be attained in a smaller, lighter and more portable package. Experimenta tion with the .300 Savage eventually led to the 1-65, better known to the ‘world as the .308 Winchester, the 7.62 NATO or the 7.62x51mm. Case head diameter was exactly the same as the 30.06, but the case was shortened from 2.494 inches to 2.015 inches. It took the military until 1954 to adopt the 7.62 NATO, eventually end- ing up as the cartridge chosen for the M14 and M60 machine gun. However, the folks at Winchester beat them to the punch by two years, releasing the 308 Winchester in 1952 in the Model 70 bolt action and the revolutionary Model 88 lever action.

Velocities usually run just about 2,700 fps, which is enough to consis- tently hit 1,000-yard targets. Medium burn-rate powders work best in the 308, giving a good balance of velocity, case capacity and accuracy. IMR4064, Hogdgon's Varget and Alliant’s Relo: derl$ are all solid choices. There are match-grade bullets available in ranges from 155 grains up to 190 grains that would make good long-range choices In the .308. My pal Mark “Pig Newton” Nazi has a Remington Model 700 Po- lice in 308 that loves those 168-grain MatchKings over the top of a carefully measured load of Varget, and routine- ly produces /# minute-of-angle (MOA) groups out past 300 yards. My own pet loads favor IMR4064 and a 150-grain bullet, with group size near the same as Mark's. I'd also recommend picking up some premium brass.

I know for certain that the .308 has cemented its place in the long-range target world; after all, 50,000 snipers can’t be wrong. -300 Winchester Magnum During the late 1950s, Winchester took the .375 Holland & Holland Magnum case and began to experiment with making some new cases. They began by shortening the case length from 2.85 inches down to 2.5 inches, so as to fit properly in a long action rifle (the same as the ,30-06). They necked it up and down, resulting in a famous trio of cartridges: the .264, .338 and 458 Winchester Magnums. These car- tridges were quickly embraced by the shooting world, filling several voids in the cartridge lineup. So in 1963, when Winchester announced that they would introduce the fourth in the line, the .300 Winchester Magnum, every- one expected a similarly dimensioned case necked to 308. Nah, Winchester surprised everyone by extending the case length out to 2.62 inches, which is just about the longest case you can stuff into a standard long-action rifle. They moved the shoulder forward, to increase case capacity, leaving a neck just .264 inches long. what they had created: a lon; cartridge that came very close to the ballistic performance of the magnum- length action .300 Weatherby. It was a cartridge so good that it very nearly pushed the venerable .300 H&H Mag- num off the stage and into obscu- nity. That’s no easy feat, as that H&H cartridge had previously won the Wimbledon Cup and made quite the reputation in the target and hunting worlds.

But the wind didn’t interfere, My 105-grain .243 bullet dropped right in, with no perceptible drift. A full-value wind is perpendicular to the bul- let's path. It blows from 9 o'clock to 3 o'clock, or vice versa. It has more effect than wind of equal speed from oblique angles. Wind from behind you (6 o'clock) or in front (12 o’clock) has essen- tially no effect at ordinary ranges. Why? Remem- ber that a bullet clocking 3,000 fps encounters terrific wind resistance even in still conditions. It generates its own headwind, in fact a 2,000- mph gale. The effect of a 20-mph headwind or tallwind is negligible, At extreme range, a strong Tiny bullets seem drift prone, but speed works in your favor to offset the effect of wind. Autor Photo headwind or tailwind can show up in groups from very accurate rifles. But, besides obvious ‘change in air resistance, along the bullet’s axis, ‘you must consider the bullet’s angle of flight. A horizontal tailwind pressures the top of the bul- let, and a horizontal headwind angles into its belly. That’s because bullets travel nose-up and, unlike porpoising arrows, stay that way through- ‘out their flight. A descending bullet is not a div- ing bullet. It is like a football thrown long. And more bul- let weight lies behind mid-point than in front. So, while the attitude of a bullet fired at a distant target may not be off horizontally by much, or stay absolutely constant in flight, you can as- sume a mild tilt. A tailwind pushes down as it pushes forward, while a headwind gives the bul- let a lift as it boosts nose pressure. In sum, almost every other variable you'll encounter shooting long will have a greater effect on impact point than will 6 o'clock or 12 o'clock winds. Wind far from the muzzle, where your bullet has lost speed, moves that bullet more than does the same wind close up. On the other hand, a wind-induced change in the bullet’ flight angle at the muzzle is multiplied over distance. Think fundigest.com of drift as a trajectory. Wind and gravity move bullets in parabolic paths. Incidentally, rifling twist can put a vertical component into drift. Right-hand spin in a 3 o'clock breeze gives bul- lets a lift to 10 o'clock. Wind from the left sends those bullets to 4 o'clock. ‘Vulnerability to wind depends on bullet veloc- ity and ballistic coefficient, or BC. Bullets of simi- lar BC show roughly the same drift, For exam- ple, Nosler's 130-grain .270 Partition has about the same nose shape and sectional density as its 140-grain 7mm, 165-grain .308 and 210-grain 338. Their BC values range from .390 to .440, Launched at 3,000 fps, all drift about six inches at 200 yards in a 20-mph crosswind.

The flags at $0 and 100 yards, however, affirmed that downrange conditions were unstable. Wind at the target could even run opposite that at the line. I'd see flags in full flap at 100 yards, other flags limp at 50. Or windicators would spin furiously to the left, while mid-range flags lifted to the right and 100-yard flags kicked left again. A bullet sent through that gauntlet flew a ziz-zag course; shoot- ing during mixed signals was perilous. The patter of shots would die out as savvy marksmen waited for more fa- vorable conditions. Favorable doesn't necessarily mean still. Itis possible to shoot well in wind, if you're zeroed for that condition ot “shade” for it. Zeroed for predominate drift, you get more shooting time dur- ing a match. You can afford to hold your fire during let-offs and pick-ups, or at least reduce the number of shots you must fire under those conditions, ‘Smart shooters make notes about the wind on a new range, so they learn Its idiosyncrasies. The Spokane range, where I often competed, is on a river- bank, Wind typically angles across the line from 7 or 8 o'clock, then bounces off the bank and hits the targets from 4 o'clock. If you minded the wind only at the line, you'd make a mistake. Centerfire rifles can drive bullets through moderate wind without sig- nificant deflection at normal hunting yardage. Even a 170-grain flat-nose 30-30 bullet drifts less than two inch- es in a 10-mph full-value wind at 100 yards. A 25-mph wind, strong enough to sway trees, pushes that .30-30 bul- let only four inches. Pointed bullets from the 30-06 fare better. Even wind that picks up small dogs and trashcan lids has little effect at modest ranges or when the angle is acute, But, as trajec- tory becomes steeper, the farther a bul- let gets from the muzzle, so deflection becomes greater at long range. For any distance, when wind speed doubles, you get double the drift Halve wind speed, and you halve drift. Reduce angle from 90 degrees and you reduce drift proportionately. Change shot distance, however, and the drift may surprise you. A 130-grain .270 bullet launched at 3,000 fps drifts only there so fast: in about 1/10-second.

All else equal, fast bullets buck wind better than slow ones, and a bullet that retains its speed better keeps a truer course through down- range wind, Rate of deceleration heavily influ- ences long-range drift. Muzzle speed can, in fact, become all but irrelevant. Long noses with sharp tips give bul- lets aerodynamic shape. But it’s easy to give too much credit to the bullet nose. The first .l-inch of the nose can be flat, round or pointed without ma- terially affecting trajectory or drift. It is the ogive—the leading curve—that matters more. Boat-tail bullets offer little advan- tage at normal hunting ranges, but remain a unanimous choice of long- range shooters. Far away, the boat-tail shows an edge, which is why target shooters favor it when firing on targets set out as far as 600 and even 1,000 yards away. No matter how well your bullet re- sists wind, hitting at distance depends on your ability to predict drift. Early in my competitive shooting, rifleman Dick Nelson (who helped Boeing de- sign the first moon buggy), put it this way: “Learn to read mirage and your bullets will hop into the X-ring like trained pigs.” Mirage can show a target that isn't there, by “floating” the image in the direction the air currents are moving. You can't see mirage at all distances at once. You'll either see the strongest mirage or the mirage at the range for which your scope is focused. To get the most information about the wind that most affects bullets, competitive marksmen focus their spotting scopes to read mirage just shy of the targets. Mirage that’s bumpy and moving slowly indicates a light breeze. When mirage disappears with no change in light’ conditions, it’s often because wind has picked up. Mirage that boils vertically signals a still condition—but beware, asa boil commonly precedes a reversal in wind direction or, of course, a pick-up. You're smart to zero for a light prevailing breeze, then hold fire during boils and reversals and shoot during pick-ups and let-offs, com WIULLALLLLALLLLLLLALLLLALLULLLLULA, LONG-RANGE ene re . ra at a al eee eet aes ay eee ee order it at gundigeststore.com, gundigest.com FELINE WARRANTY Tea o ‘expensive brands and pass the savings ‘on to you.

Though accounts vary, James Butler “Wild Bill” Hickok (1837-1876) may have used a Der- ringer to end the life of Phil Coe, while Hickok was an officer, in Abilene, Kan. Going out into the street to check on the sound of gunshots, Hickok came face to face with Coe, who already had a gun in his hand. Reportedly, Hickok relied ‘on a Derringer, carried in his coat pocket, when Coe fired a shot his way. In modern times, the back-up gun has been cartied in deep concealment, ready and wai ing to allow the defensive shooter to stay in the fight. One of the main uses for the back-up gun is when the primary handgun has been hit by an attacker’s bullet and rendered. useless. Un- trained shooters often aim at the thing they are most concerned about and, in many cases, that is the handgun. This very thing happened to one of the FBI agents involved in a famous shootout ‘with Miami bank robbers in 1986 when his auto- loading pistol was taken out of commission by incoming fire. The middle of a fierce gunfight is no place to be holding an inoperative handgun, so transitioning to a back-up may just save your life one day. Another use for the back-up gun is when the primary gun runs dry. It is extremely difficult to fundigest.com count the number of rounds one has fired when there are bullets flying all around. ‘We generally know that we are out of ammo when the auto’s slide locks to the rear or the revolver hammer clicks on an empty chamber. While a speed reload may be the solution, there can be times when it is more advisable to transi- tion to another gun. Carrying a back-up gun pro- vides the option to resolve a particular problem in more than one way. Experiencing a jam or malfunction in the pri- ‘mary handgun is another reason to consider the back-up gun. For our purposes here, a malfunc- tion is a problem that can be resolved with the hands, while a jam is something that needs tools to fix. (In the case of a jam, the gun will prob- ably need to go to a gunsmith to get it back in working order.) Malfunctions such as a stovepipe or failure to feed may be cleared fairly quickly, if the shooter has practiced the proper clearance drills, However, resolving a double-feed situation takes much longer. In revolvers, a cartridge case slipping under the extractor can take quite some time to clear, as isthe case when the extractor rod has backed out. Again, one should know how to Clear the various malfunctions common to their handgun, but a back-up gun provides another option to dealing directly with the problem. Choosing a back-up gun to fit a person’s specif- ic needs has never been easier. There was a time, in the not too distant past, when the only selec- MARCH 21,2016 Gunbigestdemupane | 33 Sector Cerise Peet rary Ce ee os poets gee oka ees Pore eed ees 34 | Gunbigest semper MARCH 27,2016 tions consisted of a few small .38 Spe- cial revolvers and a handful of small auto-loaders generally chambered for 32 ACP or .380 ACP. Thanks to an increased interest in personal-defense and modern technology, that has all changed. Polymer construction has allowed for some very small pistols, and modern technology allows us to have 9mm, .45 ACP and .357 Magnum, back-up guns of a diminutive size that were formerly only dreamed of. The police officer and armed citizen can. now carry a back-up gun that is small and lightweight enough to be comfort- able, yet one that still packs a signifi- ‘ant payload. ‘Theammunition companies haven't been asleep on the job, either. Ad- vanced bullet designs have increased the defensive performance of hand- ‘gun loads, so that a .32 or 380 auto, if that is your choice, are not to be taken lightly by any attacker. ‘Today, there are so many good back- up guns available that it is virtually impossible to list all of the suitable candidates, Instead, let’s look at some of the characteristics that all good back-up guns should possess, ‘The first important characteristic of a back-up gun should be reliability. It must function. And it must function reliably with the ammunition cho- sen. Fortunately, most handguns from reputable manufacturers will meet this, test, Cate should be taken with auto pistols to test each magazine, too. The ‘garbage can is the place for any maga- Zine that doesn’t work. Using quality magazines, quality ammunition, and keeping the pistol properly cleaned and lubricated will go a long way to- wards insuring reliability. I still carry a five-shot revolver as back-up, because of the reliability is- sue, though I will also freely admit that part of my choice is due to famil- iarity. Still, the double-action revolver is about as reliable a gun as man is capable of creating, and it will stand more neglect than the average auto pistol. However, today that is more ‘a matter of splitting hairs, thanks to the increased reliability of the modem semi-auto. ‘The back-up gun should be small and lightweight enough that it can gundigest.com be comfortably worn throughout the waking hours of the day. While any defensive handgun should be comforting Instead of comfortable, if it is too heavy, a person will start looking for excuses to leave it behind—you're only run- ning down to the comer store for a loaf of bread. What could possibly happen? ‘The back-up gun should be powerful enough to reliably stop an attack. For most of us, that means it should be .38 Special, 9mm, or larger (although a good argument can be made for the .380 and .32 autos with modem defen- sive ammunition). We often hear the argument that any handgun caliber will kill a man, when the bullet is properly placed. But we are not concerned with killing, nor are we concerned with the fact that an attacker hit with a .22 will die in a few hours or days. We are concerned with ending the confrontation as quickly and efficiently as possible. ‘The smart person will carry the most powerful handgun that he or she can shoot quickly and accurately and con- ceal effectively. The task of the back-up gun is to save your life. Don’t skimp and expect a little dog to do a big dog's job. Where should you carry your back-up gun? Ankle hol- sters are comfortable to wear and will conceal a small pis- tol quite nicely. But getting to them is the problem. Draw- ing from an ankle holster requires one to either kneel or to stand on one leg during the draw, Neither position Is a ‘good place to be in the middle of a gunfight. I thinka far better choice is to carry the back-up gun some- where around the mid-line of the body. Pocket carry makes a lot of sense, assuming one is not wearing tight jeans. The pocket chosen for carrying the back-up gun should be emp- ty of everything else; you sure don't want to make your draw and find your key ring hanging from the pistols rear sight. Numerous holster companies offer some excellent choic- es in pocket holsters. I prefer the leather ones manufac- tured with the rough side of the leather on the outside. This creates a bit of friction between the holster and the pocket lining during the draw and allows the holster to remain in the pocket. Another good carry method for back-up guns is to carry in the waistband, under the shirt. Several companies offer elastic bands that fit around the waist and have an integral holster for the small handgun. If you're into western wear, a snap-button shirt will speed up your draw considerably. If not, lower buttons can be fastened to the front tab of the shirt so that it appears to be buttoned, while Velcro strips that have been sewn on actually close the shirtfront. Either way, the shirtfront can be quickly ripped open to access the back-up gun. Several companies are now making T-shirts that have pistol pockets on either side, just under the armpit. These can be quite comfortable, but one still has to find a way to get the shirt front open quickly. In a similar vein, law enforcement officers will find some manufacturers making holsters that can be fastened to the side tabs of the ballistic vest worn under the uniform shirt.

If Benelli introduced a reskinned version of thelr older mod- els it would sell because, well, quite simply, it’s a Benelli but the Ethos has some innovative new changes that help secure its place as one of the best semiautomatic shotguns available for hunting.

For a brief instant, the bolt remains locked, and when ‘he forneme le stoadies, and it releases, the inertia spring compresses and the bolt head the overall balance ofthis gun is super. Author Proto moves rearward, Once the bolt moves rearward, the recoil spring pushes it back into place, chambering another shell and locking the rotating bolt head into the barrel via steel lugs. There's no need for adjustment and no need for ex- tensive cleaning of fouled gas systems on the Inertia-Driven system design ‘The Ethos performs like other Benellis of the past, which is to say very well. But the new Ethos has some welcome additions, namely a large, rounded, easy-to-access cartridge drop button and a bigger bolt release. Another key feature is the patented Easy Locking System, which makes it easier to lock the bolt in place, Older Benellis required you to drop the bolt hard to rotate the bolt head and lock the action for firing, If you didn’t, the gun didn’t fire, The new system eliminates much of that worry. It worked flawlessly for me, and | even tried to lightly drop the bolt to see if it would fire. It did, locking into place each time, even when 1 inten- tionally screwed up. The large, easy-to-use bolt release is a nice upgrade that will allow hunters to load more quietly. Ethos barrels are stamped with the term “Power Bore Crio Barrel.” For those who aren't familiar with the concept, Benelli’ engineers freeze the barrels, and this process is le- signed to help align the molecules in the steel for a more consistent and accurate patterning. The rib is carbon fiber, and the Ethos offers the option to change rib heights as, needed based on where you want to center your point of impact. The gun I tested had a red fiber optic bead, but «green and yellow will also be included with production, fl uns, There's a small mid-rib bead as well.

First, I wanted to see how the Ethos fared when asked to cycle 100 %-ounce light target loads (no problems at all), and I wanted to see what my shoulder felt like after the session. I was pleasantly surprised, even a little shocked, at how little the gun kicked, There's a comfort- able black plastic insert on the top of the comb of the stock, and the recoil pads are interchangeable to adjust for length of pull from 13% to 15 inches, After the range session, I took the Ethos to the field. I joined friends Kevin Kratzer and Steve and Rob Tay- lor at Buckeye Pheasant Farms in New Lebanon, Ohio, and spent a few hours hunting up birds behind one of the preserve’s English Setters, The weather ‘was miserable, and the spitting rain left the fields soaked, but we did get up some birds. As we walked the fields, [was impressed by just how light the Ethos was. I’s an easy gun to carry all day, but the real test was when the birds fished The new Benelli was quick to the shoulder, and the Progressive Comfort System does a good job of minimizing recoil. That's good news when you're spending a day at the clays range, but it's also important when you're swing- ing on a flushing pair and you need to ESN get off a second shot in a hurry. That day the birds were massed in a row of tees, and where one flushed others were likely to follow. It was no prob- em with the Ethos; simply shoulder the gun, swing, fire and get back on target. The new Ethos isn't really new at all, but rather an evolutionary step forward for Benelli, These guns will be available in 2014, but if enough hunters get their hands on this Ital- jan beauty, they won't be around very long.
