The Vortex Razor HD 13-39×56 packs premium glass, serious durability, and a backcountry-friendly 28.6 oz weight into one compact spotting scope.

The Leofoto Juggernaut S2 and S3 bring serious carbon fiber muscle, outstanding stability, and a 120-pound load rating to the shooting tripod market for $749 each. One is built for maximum stiffness, the other for easier packing and faster adjustments, and both have what it takes to challenge some of the best shooting tripods I’ve tested.

The Springfield Echelon Pro 4.5F Comp is the flattest-shooting Echelon I have fired, with a built-in compensator, aggressive new grip texture and practical upgrades that make a difference on the range. At $899, is this the best polymer pistol Springfield has built yet?

The Taurus TX22 Braced takes an already impressive .22 LR pistol and adds a folding brace, optics-ready slide and suppressor-friendly setup. It ran cheap ammo surprisingly well and delivered plenty of fun, but the missing manual safety and a stubborn brace button left me with a few complaints.

The Airlock Industries Zero Gravity 30 weighs just 7.5 ounces and measures 6 inches long, but the 2026 Silencer Summit numbers show this titanium hunting suppressor can run surprisingly close to much bigger cans. After shooting it on a .300 PRC, I understand why.

=The Leupold BX-6 Range HD finally puts Leupold into the alpha-class rangefinding binocular fight, combining excellent glass, fast ranging, Hornady 4DOF ballistics, GPS, and superb wind controls. It is also heavy, expensive, and imperfect enough that the $3,999.99 question deserves a hard look.

The Velotric Nomad 2X brings full suspension, fat tires, serious hauling capacity, and genuinely useful Stealth Mode into a hunting e-bike that costs considerably less than many purpose-built competitors. After riding it through sagebrush, rocks, gravel roads, and steep country, I like it enough that it will be riding in my horse trailer this hunting season.

At SIG NEXT, I sat down with Eric McKenzie, SIG Sauer’s Director of Commercial Product Management, to dig into the technical details of the new P385. Instead of covering the basic specs again, I pulled questions directly from YouTube comments, Reddit threads, GunsAmerica, and other discussions where shooters were asking things SIG had not really [...]

The SIG MCX-LTAW brings the look and concept of a notable special-operations MCX configuration to the commercial market, pairing a 6.75-inch .300 Blackout barrel with a suppressor-compatible heat-shield handguard and current-generation MCX controls.
