#7.5 lead shot is one of the most easily found shot sizes on the market and is made by a variety of manufacturers including NobelSport and Federal, for several different applications. Although it's typically sold to dove, quail and pheasant hunters for its excellent ability to take down fast-moving birds � squirrels, rabbits and other small game can easily be hunted with this shot size. With a high pellet count leading to a dense pattern, #7.5 lead shot will give you great stopping power with an optimal range of 35 to 50 yards.

When it comes to shotgun ammunition, there are plenty of choices. And while most shooters are very familiar with certain types, like the 00 buck, each bullet size and pellet count is different. The size of the buckshot bullets, or �shot,� will decrease as the shot type number increases � with buckshot for larger game and bird shot for smaller game. This means 000 buck is very large compared to #12 bird shot � with #1 buck right in the middle. |

The word �Plinking� � more commonly heard as �plinkin�� � is an onomatopoeia, a fancy term for a word which sounds like what it means. I actually heard the sound one time when one of my .22 bullets glanced off the side of a soft drink bottle. |

In a blow to the tired stereotypes perpetuated by gun control supporters, a recent academic survey found broad diversity among recent first time gun buyers. The findings bolstered what many observers had anecdotally discovered, the last year-and-a-half�s pandemic and civil unrest-fueled record-breaking gun sales. Provided with the preliminary survey results, the Wall Street Journal reported.

The new Colt Anaconda has been briefly summarized as a .44 Mag. built on an oversize Python frame and action. I�m thinking someone should have added the word �dramatically� to that description. Admittedly, it�s been a while since I�ve seen or handled a new Python, but I was almost overwhelmed upon first seeing the new Anaconda up close. This was not due to a lack of similarity between the Anaconda and Python; externally they look very much alike. It�s the Anaconda�s increased size, particularly in cylinder diameter that made me catch my breath. Its 1.75-inch diameter seemed to dwarf the Python�s 1.55. But let�s start with the basics.

If you�re trying to pick the perfect round for your defensive handgun, don�t forget to factor in bullet weight. It matters. A bullet�s weight affects how hard you gun kicks, and, if you make the wrong choice, can even prevent it from going bang in the first place. Most of all, bullet weight affects terminal performance. So you want to get it right.

While the �single issue� debate can roil Second Amendment supporters, there are two things that should be kept in mind. First, Second Amendment supporters should seek to build as large a coalition as possible to oppose anti-Second Amendment legislation, officials, and candidates. Second, since threats to the Second Amendment have emerged from places they previously haven�t, Second Amendment supporters need to figure out how to address them.

Typically, the only way to get one of the coveted and extremely rare General Officer pistols is to become a general in the U.S. military. About that... The Army's General Officer Pistol program dates back to at least 1972, when the service's Rock Island Arsenal began producing M15 pistols for general officers, a gun that led to the now-popular Officer series of M1911s. Marked with serial numbers prefixed with the letters "GO," the program switched to issuing M9 Berettas in the 1980s and, in 2018 in a story covered previously by Guns.com, to Sig Sauer M18 GO models.
