Why Is the Howa 1500 6.5 Creedmoor Considered a Short-Action Rifle? The bolt-action centerfire rifle world is broadly split into three categories. Long, medium, and short actions. Medium-action BA rifles are usually chambered for the largest and most powerful cartridges such as the .375 Holland and Holland and the .300 Remington Ultra Magnum round. However, most common rifles are available in short- and long-action models. The long-action concept was popularized by the venerable 30-06 round, and it is still popular to this day. However, it was the .308 Winchester round which ensured that the short-action BA rifle truly came into its own. The 6.5 Creedmoor is also a short-action round that has been designed for long-range accuracy and stopping power. In many ways, it is considered to be the 20th-century .308 Winchester cartridge’s 21st-century successor. In fact, the U.S. Special Forces Command (USSOCOM) has thoroughly checked and vetted the performance of the 6.5 Creedmoor round. Th...

Carrying for Self Defense: The Taurus G3 Review The last few years have seen the Brazilian Company Forjas Taurus ramp up its striker-fired pistol lineup. Their striker-fired offerings have come a long way since their Taurus 24/7 9mm offerings. After the resounding success of their G2C pistol, the company has come up with an even better and beefier sidearm. The Taurus G3 9mm.   While the compact pistols in the Taurus striker fired pistols line up have made a name for themselves, the company had not introduced an all-new full-sized striker fired variant for some time. That changed with the launch of the Taurus G3.  Most companies tend to create full-sized offerings and then make compact and subcompact variants of the same. Taurus did it the other way around by introducing the G2c first and then following up with the G3 full-sized version .  This pistol is only slightly larger than the Glock 19 and fractionally smaller than Springfield Armory’s XD 9. It also offers exc...
