A New Contender for the Handgun Hunter: The .44 Rem Mag Thompson/Center (T/C) G2 Contender Pistol

by Brian McCombie | Brian McCombie on Tactical Hunting

I started handgun hunting about two years ago when the 10MM Auto caliber caught my attention. My first handgun hunts were with 1911 semi-autos chambered in 10MM, and I loved the challenge of hunting up close and personal that the pistols required. Ever since then,...

The Remington Model 783: A Big-Game Rifle…At A Bargain Price!

by Brian McCombie | Brian McCombie on Tactical Hunting

The last couple years have seen most of the major gun makers add a bargain-priced bolt-action rifle or two to their hunting line up. I have to admit, I’ve viewed these rifles with some hesitation. Oh, I like the prices–$400 or less for a hunting bolt, when $700...

Hating on My Black Rifles: Talking ‘Bout My Generation

by Brian McCombie | Brian McCombie on Tactical Hunting

He was (and still very much is) among the most respected writers of hunting and firearms in the country, three decades worth of it. He also has the in-the-field resume to back it all up, with extensive hunting across all the major continents and hands-on experience...

My Go-To Scope: The Trijicon VCOG A Tactical Hunting Optic That Gets the Job Done

by Brian McCombie | Brian McCombie on Tactical Hunting

There’s often a division between what some consider Tactical versus Hunting. In a lot of ways, that division is wrong headed. After all, the tactical derives from the military, and the military application of the tactical is all about putting down the enemy. Of...

Can You See Me Now? Why Expensive Optics Go Well With Today’s Bargain-Priced Rifles

by Brian McCombie | Brian McCombie on Tactical Hunting

A couple years ago, I received some criticism from an article I published on hog hunting.  At the time, it seemed like your standard throw away gripe that pops up on Facebook and forums all the time.  But I’ve heard the same criticism many times since, some of it...

Three Times the Fun: Hogs, Deer and Coyote Fall to the Remington R-25 in .243 Winchester

by Brian McCombie | Brian McCombie on Tactical Hunting

On a recent deer and hog hunt with Mellon Creek Outfitters near Corpus Christie, Texas, I and three other writers on the hunt were given out choice of rifles:  several bolt actions, a couple different DPMS AR’s in .308 Win, and a neat looking little AR done in a camo...
The Shotgunner’s Hog Hunter

The Shotgunner’s Hog Hunter

by Brian McCombie | Brian McCombie on Tactical Hunting

I sat is a West Texas box blind, ten feet in the air and 120 yards from a feeder, on a cold, clear night, the front window of the blind open and me trying not to fall asleep. While I love night hog hunting, I’d been up since Five AM, it was 11 at night now, and I was...

Spot-and-Stalk – Tactical Hog Hunting the California Way with NFL and MLB Athletes

by Brian McCombie | Brian McCombie on Tactical Hunting

It took me the better part of two hours before I spotted my first hog. At first I thought I was seeing a tree stump in the distance, a black dot among the tangled brush and on the hillside. But as I spun the focus knob of my Swarovski EL 10×42 and got a better...

Hog Wild in the Delta: Tactical Hog Hunting in Mississippi

by Brian McCombie | Brian McCombie on Tactical Hunting

I got into position a good two hours before dark, and set up on a small, wooded hill a few hundred yards off a newly-planted corn field. I was hog hunting in Yazoo County, Mississippi, this past April, in the middle of the Mississippi Delta, a region of the state...
