Behind the Mask of HSUS: Wildlife Land Trust

Wildlife Land Trust Is a Farce

Posted on May 31, 2012 by The U.S. Sportsmen’s Alliance

The Humane Society of the United States has many “fronts” that work to ban hunting while at the same time raking in money and other commodities from the unsuspecting public. One such front is The Wildlife Land Trust (HSWLT).  This “trust” is actually a covert affiliate that sways landowners into thinking that their donation of land, easements, or dollars helps wildlife – that is far from the truth.

Redding Offers Precision Powder Measuring System for New 17 Hornet and Small Rifle Cases

Cortland , NY…….The 17 Hornet is the hottest new cartridge of the year and handloaders are excited to get going on load development. A serious problem is the apparent lack of a High Precision BR type of powder measure to handle the very light charge weights for this cartridge.

Their required length for proper function keeps the case mouth from reaching the crimp ring in a standard die. Responding to the difficulties encountered by handloaders using this bullet, Redding Reloading Equipment has introduced a new Profile crimp dies designed specifically to meet this need. Read more

Easing Restrictions on Michigan Deer Hunters

By   Glen Wunderlich

When State House Representative Matt Lori (R – District 59) called me about my position on HB 5249 – a bill that would make certain straight-wall cartridges legal for deer hunting in Michigan’s southern zone –   I was pleasantly surprised.  For those of you not familiar with the proposed legislation, here it is:  It would allow a .35 caliber or larger rifle loaded with straight-wall cartridges of a minimum case length of 1.16 and a maximum case length of 1.8 inches in Zone III (shotgun zone.)  I had written that the legislation should have been amended to allow all straight-wall cartridges – an argument based on ballistics.
