At SHOT Show 2025, I had the chance to check out a mind-blowing new product that’s going to make any precision shooter’s life a whole lot easier. Right in front of me at the Beretta Range Day was the brand-new XTR PS scope from Burris. And trust me, you’re going to want to see this one to believe it.

If you’re the type of shooter who wants a rifle that can keep up whether you’re chasing game in the field or chasing a tight group at the range, the Tikka T3x Ace Game might just be your perfect match.

This gun is a polymer-framed, striker-fired pistol chambered in 9x19mm that has a grip angle similar to a Glock.

With carbon fiber everything, a folding stock chassis, modern and effective muzzle brake design, updated action, and feather-light weight, why would you build a custom hunting rifle when you can buy this factory rifle that already has everything you want?

Vector X is the most advanced pair of ballistic rangefinding binoculars currently available on the market. These binoculars are outfitted with Applied Ballistics software.

Any hunter knows that ounces equal pounds and pounds equal pain. What If I told you that you can cut your bipod’s weight from pounds to ounces and (probably) gain functionality and versatility in the switch!?

We are only two days into the hunting trip and 2/3 of the tags are filled with decent bull elk. Mine is the last unpunched tag.

As we crested the barren ridge we were on, Don spotted a bull on the horizon in front of our little possie. I was one of the first with a gun out after a glance with the binoculars showed that the elk was a branch-antlered bull.

This is the story of how I killed my smallest bull elk to date even though I was given the best unit in my area to find an old patriarch.
