GunsAmerica Product Reviews – Rifles

A premium straight-pull that cycles like lightning and prints sub-MOA with multiple loads. If you want one rifle to do it all, the R8 Ultimate makes a strong case.

From featherweight mountain rigs to suppressor-ready workhorses, these 15 rifles deliver real-world accuracy, smart features, and gift-list heat for 2025.

We pulled this list from gear we actually ran in the field and on the clock. If you want gifts that shoot straight and last, start here.

CZ’s 600+ Alpha in .243 Win blends a crisp 1.4 lb single-stage trigger, controlled-feed reliability, and a quick-change barrel system. We shot groups, ran offhand drills, and pushed real hunting loads to see what this rifle actually does on target.

Weatherby’s 307 Range XP in 7 PRC blends a familiar 700-style action, a crisp TriggerTech, and a huntable mag sporter barrel. We shot groups, ran chrono data, and lived with the quirks to see if it truly earns a place in the truck.

Two centuries in and the lever-action still drops deer, runs fast, and keeps the fun meter pegged. From 45-70 Government to 357 Magnum, here’s why a lever belongs in your safe and in your truck.

A handmade .54 flintlock, a high-desert mule deer, and a 57-yard window that closed fast. I chose sparks, smoke, and skill over easy.

Three classic Marlin 336 builds put meat on the ground and smiles on faces. From a rescued 30-30 to a do-everything 35 Rem and a thumper 50 Alaskan, here is how old school still wins.

Let’s explore the mesh of old and new to discover guns perfect for any space cowboy.
