I can’t really go out and kill anything this time of year with a knife where I live, so I opted to take it with me on a few inner-coastal waterfowl hunts.

The Best Binos for the Money — Vortex Viper HD 8x42mm & Impact 850 Rangefinder

{ 5 comments }

When you’re planning a hunting trip there are few very important considerations — what gun are you going to take? What does the weather look like? How much will the tags cost? Equally as important as what firearm you’re going to take is what binos will you take? For a mid-range 8X binos, the Vortex Viper HD 8×42 are hard to beat.

Chris Reeve Small Inkosi Insingo – Full Review

{ 7 comments }

This is not really a review so much as it is a brag sesh (session). What I mean is don’t expect objectivity because you’ll get none. I’m a Chris Reeve fanboy, through and through.

Fortunately, that tool now exists.

The Perfect Entry Level Optic: Burris XTR II 4-20x50mm

{ 5 comments }

When the cost of a precision rifle can reach into the thousands of dollars it tends to be a little less practical, and unnecessary, to spend as much on the scope as you spent on the rifle. Starting out though, when you’re on a budget, finding a suitable optic for precision rifle competition that won’t break the bank isn’t easy. However, Burris is making the search easier with their XTR II line of scopes that are tailor-made for the beginning shooter at a price that some will find very easy to swallow.

Long range shooting is a discipline that requires quality gear. Typically the equipment needed for long range shooting is expensive. Now and then a company will offer a piece of kit that is well made and moderately priced. One such product that I have tested extensively over the course of this year is the Bushnell Legend T-Series Tactical Spotting Scope.

The AFLoader isn’t a tool to assist people loading magazines–it is an automated pistol magazine loader. Give it mags and ammo and it gives you loaded mags.
