My name is Brian Downs and I have been an outdoorsman for as long as I can remember. I have been chasing predators for the better part of those years and truly love what I do. I have hunted from Texas to Quebec and loved every minute of it. This passion has brought me to Predator Xtreme and this blog. If it is considered a predator, it is on my list. I hope you enjoy it.

Ralph Lermayer may be widely regarded as the editor of Predator Xtreme magazine, but he is also one of the top gun writing authorities in the business. In the grand tradition of O’Conner, Keith and Carmichel, Ralph shares his weekly insights on the hottest new guns and loads, as well as tips on how to improve your shooting and take more game.
