The Banish Backcountry is an impressively light can that weighs 7.8 oz and is only 5.5″ long. It may be a tiny package but it is impressively tough, being rated for Remington Ultra-Mag sized cartridges, including the enormous Weatherby 30-378.

Is it coming up on Christmas? Does your husband/wife have an (almost) unhealthy obsession with guns? If the answer to either of these questions is yes, you might find a helpful gift idea on this list that they would enjoy getting.

As with everything, choosing a cartridge for suppressed hunting is full of good, better, and best options. 375 Raptor is the cartridge that I would place in the “best” category.

The Trek-22 is just a stock, not a firearm. To complete the system, you need to remove a Ruger 10/22 from its factory stock and place it within the Trek-22. Once installed, you have converted your Ruger 10/22 to a bullpup!

Today I’m covering their Terrapin X rangefinder, which a few of you may have heard about because it launched in 2018. From what I know, this rangefinder is currently Vectronix’s only item marketed to civilians. Even though it isn’t new to the market, I recently got one and thought it review-worthy because of recent updates to its Bluetooth connectivity and compatibility with popular ballistic apps that most long-range shooters already use.

In my never-ending search for the perfect optic to pair with a lightweight, long-range hunting rifle, Vortex Optics’ Razor HD LHT piqued my interest with its impressive feature set to weight ratio. How well does it perform in the field though? I’ve put the new 4.5-22×50 MOA model through extensive testing and am here to answer that exact question.

Crimson Trace is a name that many, if not most gun enthusiasts know. We recognize their name from laser sights and battle lights. That said, some are unaware that they are now making optics. These optics vary from electronic reflex sights to magnified rifle optics as well as budget to higher-end. Many of these bring a lot to the table in their price range.

Christensen Arms has entered a newer, rapidly expanding section of the firearms market with their new bolt action chassis pistol, the Modern Precision Pistol. This new offering is basically their MPR chassis rifle shrunken down to a barrel length of 7.5-12.5″ depending on caliber. Don’t be fooled though, these short barrels still pack a punch while providing impressive accuracy.

The Taurus TX 22 Competition entered the rimfire pistol market earlier this year and is making some big waves. This 22 LR handgun is a more affordable option for an optics ready, suppressor compatible rimfire pistol that has proved itself through the months since its release to be extremely accurate, reliable, and ergonomic. What ISN’T there to like about it?
