The Hornady V-MAX line of ammunition was created for varmint control, as the bullet has a thin jacket and was designed to fragment on impact with a target, even at low velocities. For many years, your standard varmint ammo was pretty much whatever you had on hand, and this produced mixed results depending on what you were shooting. The V-MAX has a lot of features to make sure any critter is humanely dispatched immediately and is extremely accurate.

Taped inside my violin case � a pastime I abandoned in my 20s, perhaps as an act of mercy towards others � is a photocopied portrait of a violinist with the caption, �Paganini begins where our reason ends.� Written by composer Giacomo Meyerbeer, the description is apt: Niccolo Paganini, famed violin virtuoso of the 18th and early 19th centuries, was gifted with such technical prowess that even today the staccato, lightning-fast 24 Caprices he composed both stun and terrify. There is little beauty to the music � it is simply a tour de force of skill without appeal to our innate sense of beauty.

When selecting a semi-automatic handgun for self-defense, for many the only choice is the M1911�and for good reason. Few firearms are as proven in life-and-death confrontations. Also, the M1911 has excellent ergonomics, fire-control placement and, in most examples, a quality single-action trigger to boot. Moreover, the M1911 is available in myriad configurations and has the ability to be easily customized, which facilitates a perfect fit for nigh all shooters. Despite its many attributes, though, the M1911 doesn�t appeal to everyone. Beyond its dimensions (and weight), the key detraction is its capacity, which is typically limited by a single-stack magazine.

A Feb. 3 decision in an Oklahoma federal court affirms that the Second Amendment right to possess firearms may not broadly be restricted. Even those of us who strongly support laws against marijuana use should recognize that mere marijuana possession and small-batch use should not negate a fundamental constitutional right to own (not use) a gun that is in no way connected to the alleged cannabis infraction.

A fake Second Amendment advocacy group is attacking pro-2A lawmakers, including A+ rated and endorsed Speaker Todd Gilbert. This desperate group has released multiple smear campaigns against pro-2A lawmakers while asking for donations. With no lobbying presence in Richmond or at the grassroots level, these groups instead focus on attacking pro-2A legislators, such as Speaker Gilbert, rather than fighting to restore Second Amendment freedoms in Virginia.
