As/cs a/at Christmas/np service/nn ,/, I've/ppss+hv taken/vbn a/at close/jj look/nn at/in this/dt year's/nn$ crop/nn of/in new/jj models/nns ./.

Read/vb on/rp ,/, take/vb your/pp$ pick/nn --/-- and/cc start/vb dropping/vbg those/dts hints/nns ./.


	First/od on/in my/pp$ own/jj list/nn would/md be/be two/cd arms/nns --/-- a/at rifle/nn and/cc a/at handgun/nn --/-- that/wps qualify/vb as/cs new/jj in/in the/at strictest/jjt sense/nn ./.
For/in me/ppo ,/, a/at changed/vbn barrel/nn length/nn or/cc an/at improved/vbn stock/nn doesn't/doz* constitute/vb a/at truly/ql new/jj design/nn ./.
Such/jj modifications/nns are/ber all/abn for/in the/at best/jjt but/cc it/pps takes/vbz something/pn as/ql different/jj as/cs a/at Deerstalker/np or/cc a/at Jet/nn-tl to/to change/vb arms-making/nn concepts/nns ./.


	Bill/np Ruger's/np$ long-awaited/jj Deerstalker/np (/( under/rb $110/nns )/) is/bez a/at new/jj rifle/nn action/nn in/in a/at caliber/nn that/wps upsets/vbz all/abn the/at modern/jj theory/nn of/in high-velocity/nn fans/nns ;/. ;/.
it's/pps+bez a/at short/jj ,/, light/jj ,/, quick-handling/jj ,/, fast-firing/jj little/jj timber/nn gun/nn designed/vbn to/to push/vb a/at heavy/jj slug/nn at/in modest/jj velocity/nn but/cc with/in lots/nns of/in killing/vbg power/nn and/cc ample/jj range/nn for/in our/pp$ most/ql popular/jj big/jj game/nn --/-- whitetail/nns ./.


	Ruger/np reports/vbz that/cs on/in his/pp$ recent/jj African/jj safari/nn the/at little/ap Magnum/np cartridge/nn was/bedz a/at real/jj work/nn horse/nn ./.
Small/jj antelope/nn were/bed generally/rb grassed/vbn with/in one/cd shot/nn ,/, and/cc the/at Magnum/np carbine/nn also/rb bagged/vbd reedbuck/nns ,/, kob/nns and/cc wart/nn hog/nns with/in deadly/jj efficiency/nn ;/. ;/.
these/dts are/ber fairly/ql large/jj ,/, tough/jj animals/nns ./.


	The/at deadliness/nn of/in the/at Magnum/np in/in a/at rifle/nn comes/vbz as/cs no/at surprise/nn to/in me/ppo ./.
At/in least/ap five/cd years/nns ago/rb ,/, Tom/np Robinson/np of/in Marlin/np made/vbd up/rp an/at over/under/jj double/jj rifle/nn for/in me/ppo in/in this/dt caliber/nn ,/, using/vbg the/at now/rb defunct/jj Model/nn-tl 90/cd-tl action/nn in/in 20-gauge/nn size/nn ./.
After/cs figuring/vbg out/rp how/wrb to/to regulate/vb the/at barrels/nns so/cs that/cs they/ppss shot/vbd to/in the/at same/ap point/nn of/in impact/nn ,/, we/ppss fired/vbd this/dt little/jj 20-inch-barrel/nn job/nn on/in my/pp$ home/nr range/nn and/cc in/in Marlin's/np$ underground/jj test/nn gallery/nn ./.
We/ppss quickly/rb ran/vbd into/in the/at same/ap trouble/nn that/wps plagued/vbd Bill/np Ruger/np in/in his/pp$ first/od experiments/nns :/: Three/cd or/cc four/cd bullets/nns would/md be/be placed/vbn well/rb in/in a/at six-inch/jj bull/nn at/in 100/cd yards/nns and/cc then/rb ,/, unaccountably/rb ,/, one/cd could/md stray/vb far/ql out/rp of/in the/at group/nn ./.


	Ruger/np learned/vbd that/cs this/dt was/bedz because/cs the/at higher/jjr velocity/nn achieved/vbn in/in a/at long/jj barrel/nn was/bedz upsetting/vbg the/at shape/nn of/in the/at unjacketed/jj revolver/nn bullet/nn ./.
The/at new/jj ,/, jacketed/vbn slug/nn in/in Magnum/np corrected/vbd this/dt ./.
But/cc even/vb without/in jacketed/vbn bullets/nns ,/, I/ppss had/hvd enough/ap faith/nn in/in my/pp$ double/jj to/to take/vb it/ppo on/in an/at opening-day/nn deer/nns hunt/nn that/dt first/od year/nn ./.
Within/in half/abn an/at hour/nn I/ppss jumped/vbd a/at six-point/jj buck/nn that/wps hop-skipped/vbd through/in a/at rhododendron/nn thicket/nn ,/, and/cc I/ppss caught/vbd him/ppo just/ql behind/in the/at left/jj foreleg/nn at/in 60/cd yards/nns ./.
He/pps moved/vbd only/rb about/rb 30/cd feet/nns after/in the/at 240-grain/jj slug/nn hit/vbd him/ppo --/-- and/cc this/dt was/bedz after/cs the/at bullet/nn had/hvd passed/vbn through/in a/at sapling/nn ./.


	Three/cd more/ap deer/nns have/hv fallen/vbn to/in this/dt same/ap gun/nn ,/, and/cc all/abn were/bed one-shot/jj kills/nns ./.
My/pp$ double/nn was/bedz made/vbn with/in standard-weight/nn revolver/nn barrels/nns (/( before/rb cutting/vbg to/in revolver/nn length/nn )/) ,/, and/cc although/cs it/pps compares/vbz well/rb in/in other/ap respects/nns ,/, it's/pps+bez considerably/ql heavier/jjr than/cs the/at Deerstalker/np ,/, which/wdt only/rb scales/vbz about/rb 6-1/2/cd pounds/nns ./.


	If/cs ever/rb a/at rifle/nn met/vbd the/at needs/nns of/in the/at whitetail/nn hunter/nn ,/, this/dt is/bez it/pps ./.
The/at Deerstalker/np points/vbz with/in the/at ease/nn ,/, speed/nn and/cc precision/nn of/in a/at fine/jj imported/vbn double/jj shotgun/nn ,/, and/cc its/pp$ trigger/nn pull/nn is/bez light/jj and/cc sharp/jj ./.
The/at 240-grain/jj bullet/nn leaves/vbz the/at muzzle/nn at/in 1,850/cd fps/nn ,/, which/wdt gives/vbz it/ppo all/abn the/at smash/nn needed/vbn at/in woods/nns ranges/nns ./.
With/in five/cd shots/nns at/in the/at immediate/jj command/nn of/in the/at hunter's/nn$ trigger/nn finger/nn ,/, the/at gun/nn and/cc load/nn are/ber a/at deadly/jj combination/nn ./.


	The/at second/od really/ql new/jj development/nn this/dt year/nn was/bedz a/at revolver/nn handling/vbg a/at different/jj sort/nn of/in varmint/nn load/nn --/-- the/at 


Remington/np Jet/nn-tl Magnum/np-tl Center/nn-tl Fire/vb-tl ./.
At/in present/nn it's/pps+bez available/jj in/in one/cd model/nn ,/, the/at fine/jj and/cc familiar/jj Smith/np-tl &/cc-tl Wesson/np-tl Magnum/np-tl revolver/nn (/( about/rb $110/nns )/) ,/, long/rb a/at top-quality/nn handgun/nn among/in target/nn arms/nns ./.
The/at velocity/nn of/in this/dt 


,/, 40-grain/jj bullet/nn is/bez rated/vbn at/in a/at very/ql hot/jj 2,460/cd fps/nn ,/, and/cc it's/pps+bez the/at flattest/jjt shooting/nn of/in any/dti revolver/nn cartridge/nn ,/, with/in a/at mid-range/nn rise/nn of/in about/rb an/at inch/nn over/in a/at 100-yard/jj range/nn ./.
This/dt is/bez a/at varmint/nn load/nn ,/, pure/jj and/cc simple/jj ;/. ;/.
it's/pps+bez much/ql too/ql explosive/jj for/in small/jj edible/jj game/nn ./.
It/pps can/md cut/vb a/at red/jj squirrel/nn neatly/rb in/in two/cd or/cc burst/vb a/at crow/nn into/in a/at flurry/nn of/in feathers/nns ./.


	The/at most/ql intriguing/jj aspect/nn of/in the/at S/np &/cc-tl W/np Magnum/np chambered/vbn for/in the/at new/jj Jet/nn-tl is/bez that/cs it/pps can/md also/rb fire/vb standard/jj 


rim-fires/nns by/in means/nn of/in adapter/nn sleeves/nns in/in the/at chambers/nns ./.
You/ppss may/md therefore/rb convert/vb the/at gun/nn into/in a/at small-game/nn and/cc plinking/vbg arm/nn ,/, although/cs the/at difference/nn in/in the/at point/nn of/in impact/nn (/( Jet/nn-tl vs./in rim-fire/nn )/) can/md be/be somewhat/ql disconcerting/jj ./.
The/at accuracy/nn of/in the/at Jet/nn-tl cartridge/nn is/bez fine/jj ;/. ;/.
I/ppss tested/vbd it/ppo in/in my/pp$ scoped/jj S/np &/cc-tl W/np and/cc it/pps was/bedz good/jj enough/qlp to/to allow/vb me/ppo to/to hit/vb a/at chuck/nn with/in every/at shot/nn at/in 100/cd yards/nns if/cs I/ppss did/dod my/pp$ part/nn by/in holding/vbg the/at handgun/nn steadily/rb ./.

The/at fact/nn that/cs the/at Deerstalker/np and/cc the/at Jet/nn-tl were/bed the/at only/ap completely/ql new/jj designs/nns this/dt year/nn doesn't/doz* mean/vb that/cs 1961/cd didn't/dod* see/vb changes/nns in/in models/nns ,/, actions/nns and/cc calibers/nns ./.

	Once/rb again/rb the/at Mossberg/np Targo/np outfit/nn has/hvz appeared/vbn ,/, but/cc this/dt time/nn as/cs a/at bolt-action/nn rifle-shotgun/nn combination/nn ./.
