Powerhouse Pedigree: the .375 H&H and its Descendants.

"The .375 Holland & Holland Magnum brings to mind sun-baked African savannas, trophies in salt, whispered commands of “take him” from a weathered professional hunter, Hemingway tales around a fire and perhaps a good bourbon after a proper day afield. The legacy created by the .375 H&H Mag. demonstrates a pedigree and complexity that would impress even the most devout social climber. Stroll with me through the family dynasty that began with the .375 H&H Mag. and is still gaining momentum well over a century later."

AR(C) 15

Tailor-Made - The art and science behind gun fit for non-average-sized shooters.

“Good things come in small packages.” Aesop

Whether referencing delicate gifts of jewelry, truffles or shorter-statured people – the axiom holds true. When it comes to people, it can make certain things challenging - reaching the top shelf, hanging Christmas lights or dusting the top of the fridge (honestly, if I can’t see it, why worry about it?). Cleaning cop-outs aside, the shorter statured individual can find proper long gun fit to be every bit as frustrating and elusive as that wine glass on the top shelf. 


Over the next several pages, we are going to walk through the components that can make or break long gun fit for the vertically challenged among us. We will evaluate both target and field long gun fit in rifles and shotguns. This will entail a tour through both platform and purpose of multiple case studies as well as a hard look at the metrics that constitute proper fit and function for the shorter-statured shooter.

"If you do your grocery shopping from a tree stand or you buy your meat in bulk from a co-op, you’re probably in the market for a meat grinder. But meat grinders vary from small, stand mixer attachments to commercial grinders able to process a moose. How to choose the best meat grinder for you becomes the hard part."

SMall Game; Big Thoughts

It’s fall. My daily scroll is filled with elk trophy pictures, mule deer grip and grins, youth hunt whitetails and assorted feathered critters artfully arranged on tailgates. Sometimes, I just keep scrolling, looking for the “Labs of Instagram,” or various other non-standard entertainments. There’s nothing quite like a lab smile … Click the picture for the full story!

Olsen's Pheasant Phun! Your Hunt; Your Way.


The rush of a bird taking flight. The crackle of a fire in a cozy lodge setting. Glasses clinking on a richly hued bar with a whiskey wall backdrop. Long miles afield punctuated with world-class cuisine in a finely appointed dining room. The day’s successes are celebrated and the misses forgotten. That is just a taste of the precious moments to look forwa

Feathers: Not Just for Dusters


Days afield are both precious and memorable. For many, hunting has a natural progression to taxidermy on the wall. Antlers, feathers and fins provide memories that live on long after the tenderloins or fillets have disappeared. Shoulder mounts, turkey fans and classic upland bird scenes can be found in many a hunter’s home, office or trophy room. But, what about somet
