Overview<\/h2>\n

TrackingPoint was back with a vengeance this year. What exactly is TrackingPoint? It looks like some space-age madness mounted on your gun and functions pretty much like a fighter jet missile in that it uses lock-and-launch technology to make your black rifle a precision-guided weapon. It feels kind of weird, but it does work.<\/p>\n

Here’s how it works in basically three steps. \u00a0Step one:<\/strong> You select a target and mark it in your scope with a button. Step two:<\/strong> You pull the trigger and hold it. Step three:<\/strong> The TrackingPoint system fixes a ballistic solution in your scope as a crosshair, and when that crosshair crosses the target the gun fires. It’s pretty cool.<\/p>\n

Specs<\/h2>\n

A look at the options.<\/p><\/div>\n

Impression<\/h2>\n

Well, their budget model in 5.56 starts around $6,000. \u00a0That seems like a lot of coin, no doubt. But an H.D. television was $10,000 when it first hit the shelves and now you can buy them at Walmart for what seems like pocket change.<\/p>\n

New technology always comes at a premium. \u00a0But over time, as it is refined and perfected and as more users purchase it, the price usually comes down. \u00a0To that extent, TrackPoint rifles are way more accessible today than they were when they initially launched (prices were upwards of $20,000). \u00a0We’ll see if that trend continues.<\/p>\n

Back to the question of functionality. Does it work? Granted, I only had a few rounds, but yes it works. I had multiple 460-yard hits with a 300 AAC. But for the record, I did also miss at least once. Am I excited about the technology? Absolutely. Is my checkbook out? Not quite yet. But let’s not forget, danger close<\/a> for a gun run from an A-10 is a couple hundred meters. And they cost at least an order of magnitude more than $6,000.<\/p>\n
