It's probably towards the older end of your scale, but if you can find them, the Patrick Mcmanus books are good. My kids enjoyed them when they were young.

While my wife supports my habits, the only part she participates in is the shooting. She says we don't do enough of that (and I agree)! She usually outshoots me since we figured out that she is...

Friend of mine hunts with a 7mm mag. I've been trying to get him to use something else, but he is too proud of it. On his last doe one front shoulder and one hind quarter were too messed up to use. ...

I have a WWII vintage Ithaca and a Colt Series 80 and the only problem I have had was when the series 80 slide stop broke. Both are more accurate than I am.
