Thin skinned game is hunted in every climate and terrain on Earth.

 

If you are planning a hunt, chances are an Empire Rifle has been there and done it.

 

In fact, an Empire Rifle has been used to hunt almost all 28 species of North American big game, as well as an amazing variety of African, Asian and European game. We use this experience to help you design the ideal rifle and select the ideal scope, whether a general purpose “go-to” set up or a specialty rig. It is specifically on thin skinned game where Empire’s reputation for accuracy and reliability delivers.

Weatherproof Warrior: Empire Standard Rifle, .338 Mag, Field Grade

with optional barrel band sling swivel

Thin skinned game can weigh as little as 20, and as much as 1800 lbs. To meet these

requirements, the Empire Standard Rifle is chambered for over 60 cartridges.

 

Your rifle design can take two basic directions: a weatherproof warrior stocked in Kevlar with metal coated against the elements, perfect for the Alaska Peninsula, the rain forest, or just banging around the hunting car. . .  Or more classic --and tough-- deluxe walnut with all the trimmings.

 

Select a short action for that .257 Roberts deer rifle or .300 WSM jack-of-all trades.

 

Full length cartridges best suited to Whitetail, Impala, Kudu, and Red Stag include the .280 Rem, 30.06 Springfield and various .300 Magnums and Ultra Magnums --Empire offers over 20 cartridges in this class! These rifles also do wonderful duty on Leopard and Black Bear.

 

For Elk, Moose, and larger Plains Game such as Zebra and Eland, the .338 and .358 caliber rifles deliver heavy, hard hitting power.
