is 6.5 creedmoor better than .308

Is 6.5 Creedmoor Really Better Than .308?

If anyone tries to tell you that the old battle horse known as .308 Winchester (alternatively, 7.62×51 NATO) is washed up, you’ll know right away they’re either drinking the kool-aid or are drastically ill-informed as to hunting and war history.  The effectiveness of the .308 has been shown for many decades in deserts, rice paddies […]

AR500 Body Armor Put To The Test

AR500 Body Armor Put To The Test

We here at Loadoutroom.com love our guns, armor and gear.  We love using them, testing them, reading about them and writing about them.  When we’re not doing all that, we’re watching funny videos online about people using them, testing them, et cetera.  While FPSRussia was once the heavyweight champion of gun channels, sad events laid the channel […]

Man Cave

4 Essential tips for building your Man Cave

In a modern world filled with soyboys and politically correct warriors, the Man Cave is the ultimate sanctuary for the blue-blooded, spiritual descendants of Erik the Red or Godfrey of Bouillon.  One can reach back to history and quickly pick out the inspiration for the man cave, the Warrior’s Den or Viking Longhouse were places where men […]

5.11 Aurora

5.11 Aurora Shell Jacket | Elemental protection

The annual SHOT Show is usually populated by booths showing more of the same, “A little newer, lighter and more expensive” was my answer when questioned what the theme this year was.  5.11 Tactical, however, dropped a lot of new products.  I was invited to their Las Vegas retail store for a media meet-and-greet and was […]

First look at the CMMG Endeavour 300 chambered in 6.5 Creedmoor

Winter is breaking and soon we’ll be back into the long shooting season.  In anticipation of clear skies and light winds, CMMG has sent out their Endeavour 300 MK3 chambered in 6.5 Creedmoor.  The recent rebranding of the company’s rifle lines has the rifle’s line-up and series denoting the intended role/function of the rifle.  For […]

Morale patches

Interview with a Patchmaker: Megaton Morale

After this year’s SHOT Show, I put up a small article covering some of the best Morale Patches I’d found while walking the floor of the convention center.  The article did considerably better than expected, showing that the patch addiction may have spread further than epidemiologist’s may have initially thought.  At the behest of Vince […]

Quick Look: TriStar Compact bullpup shotgun

It seems like every couple of years, a new bullpup rifle or shotgun hits the market and threatens once again, to make bullpups hit the mainstream vein of the US market.  While the likes of the IWI Tavor, the UTAS-15 and the legendary Steyr Aug have picked up a number of fans, these designs have […]

Reloading .300 Blackout Subs for 6¢ a round

We all love new calibers right?  Whether you need one, want one, or you even feel like it has a place in the industry.  We love new calibers because they represent R&D within the industry, a sure sign of health.  Tough times means slashed R&D budgets with companies focusing on producing only what is necessary.  […]

Photo of the day: Whisky and cigars, a staple in any man cave

Whisky and Cigars seem to be the favorite vices of nearly all savage gentlemen I’ve met.  The smooth, smoky aroma of a good scotch matches perfectly with a carefully selected smoke.  Shown above are Dalmore’s 12 year aged Scotch and a cigar that is well traveled.  Having arrived in Florida by less-than-official means, they made […]

Wideners Winchester 9mm Ammo

Wideners Winchester 9mm Ammo

Wideners has been around since 1978, selling reloading equipment and shooting supplies.  In 1996 their .com fired up on the ‘net, and they’ve been selling their wares there ever since.  Known largely as a great source for powder and projectiles to reload with, Wideners also offers factory ammo aplenty.  To illustrate that point, they were kind […]
