Rifles: expert reviews, buying guides and advice for every discipline
Choosing the right rifle is one of the most significant decisions a shooter makes. Get it right and it will serve you for decades. Get it wrong and it costs you time, money and frustration in the field.
Rifle Shooter’s rifles section delivers the independent, in-depth reviews and buying advice you need to choose with confidence. Our experienced team of reviewers tests the latest centrefire and rimfire rifles across every discipline – deer stalking, long-range target shooting, foxing, pest control and driven boar – assessing accuracy, build quality, trigger, ergonomics and value.
We cover rifles across every price point, from accessible entry-level options for newcomers to premium builds from the world’s finest makers. Brands tested include Tikka, Sako, Remington, Browning, Blaser, Mauser, Ruger and Weatherby.
Whatever your quarry, your discipline or your budget – the right rifle is here.
