Bushnell Offers Updated, Expanded Legend Binocular Line for 2015

OVERLAND PARK, Kansas – Bushnell®, an industry-leader in high performance sports optics for more than 65 years, has introduced a new, redesigned Legend® binocular line for 2015.

Since its introduction in 2009, the award-winning Legend binocular series has proven to be a high-quality, affordable optic for hunters, shooters and wildlife enthusiasts. With Ultra Wide Band lens coatings, Legend binoculars provide excellent light transmission and clarity for dusk-to-dawn performance. They use environmentally friendly lead-free glass with the patented RainGuard® HD coating. This permanent, water-resistant finish causes moisture to bead up and scatter less light, allowing the binoculars to perform even in inclement weather.

Three models make up the product line for 2015: the E-Series, L-Series and M-Series. All three models are available in 8×42 or 10×42 configurations and feature a chassis constructed of strong, lightweight magnesium. They have fully multi-coated optics with Ultra Wide Band Coating that is customized for every lens to allow maximum brightness and truer color across the light spectrum. All three models feature increased eyecup resistance and are 100 percent waterproof and fogproof.

The E-Series binoculars are available in 8×42 with a wide field of view of 426 feet at 1,000 yards or 10×42 with a field of view of 340 feet at 1,000 yards. The binoculars come with premium objective covers to protect the lenses from dirt and dust and fine-click diopter adjustment.

The Legend L-Series binoculars feature an additional locking eyepiece diopter and ED (Extra-Low Dispersion) Prime Glass. Also available in 8×42 and 10×42 configurations, the Legend L series is available in black and, in the 10x configuration, Realtree Xtra® camouflage.

The top of the line Legend M-Series binoculars have all the features of the other Legends, plus a dielectric coating on the prisms to assure high color reproduction. This coating reflects more than 99 percent of incoming light to allow for maximum light output at dusk and dawn. They come with custom objective covers to protect the lenses from dust, dirt and other abrasives, and feature a weight-saving, ergonomic open bridge design for less fatigue during long glassing sessions.

Big Horn Armory’s Model 90: Big Thump, Handy Package

Animals that can bite back can make trekking into remote spots problematical. Whether you are hunting these animals or merely passing through their territory, carrying a powerful stopper rifle is more than reassuring; it’s almost a necessity. A semi-auto powerful enough for these kinds of critters is too heavy to pack, and a revolver in the same power category constantly threatens to send your pants on a trip to your ankles. But a fast-handling, handy and quick-shooting lever action like Big Horn Armory’s new Model 90 in .460 S&W Magnum is just about the perfect answer to this conundrum.

Sure, it’s a handy thing to send a big chunk of lead and/or copper into an ornery bruin or boar at halitosis range, but when you can reach out and touch them from a distance you can elevate your problem-solving skills to a better level. The .460 S&W Magnum is 11-percent flatter shooting than its big brother, the .500 S&W Magnum over 200 yards and has as much as 20-percent more energy at the muzzle when fired in a Big Horn Armory Model 90 carbine. Like all of its products, Big Horn Armory’s Model 90 rifle and carbine are made in the United States of America with a level of craftsmanship and reliability rarely seen today. The new Model 90 is the first repeating rifle for this powerful cartridge. It will enable hunters to use 45 Colt, 454 Casull and 460 S&W in one rifle. Big Horn Armory’s Model 90 is made using 17-4PH stainless steel or 4140 chrome moly steel and the finest woods. Available metal finishes will include Matte SS, Hunter Black and Color Casehardened.

UTG’s Recon 360 Bipod – Designed to Impress

Leapers UTG has a well established reputation for making some of the finest bipods available. The wide variety of models is all tailored to provide a rock solid foundation to shoot from for different shooting applications. Paired with a pricing policy that nobody can beat, Leapers/UTG has become the go-to place when it comes to obtaining a quality bipod system. Leapers/ UTG have now upped the ante by releasing their newest flagship bipod, TL-BP01. Aptly titled the “Recon 360″, UTG’s new Bipod has a host of features that set it apart and make it an outstanding choice for almost any shooting scenario. The main feature is its ability to rotate and tilt 360°.

This allows the shooter to make adjustments to their sight picture without ever having to lift and move the weapon or take their hand off the grip. To ensure that the shooter does not over-compensate any rotational or tilting action, the Recon 360 has two tension adjustment screws that allow the user to personalize the flexibility of the Recon 360 movement based on shooting needs and preferences. The Recon 360 comes with a cantilevered base that places the bulk of the bipod offset and away from its actual Picatinny mounting location. This clever design saves valuable space on tactical rail systems and allows the bipod to sit in the least obtrusive location when not deployed.

The fluted leg design helps reduce weight and gives this bipod a unique character unlike any other in the industry. The legs themselves can be snapped into 5 positions with the push of a button, and positive retention is guaranteed via deep slots that have been equally spaced and toleranced along the swivel disk. The Recon 360 stands tall at 10.2″ when fully extended, providing ample clearance for an AR with a Mil-Spec 30 round magazine inserted; whereas at its shortest leg setting of 7.4” the height is perfect for use on a bolt action rifle. The legs can be locked in place at one of the 5 extension notches, or anywhere in-between notches via a thumb locking wheel. In addition, the bipod comes standard with UTG’s own sling swivel mounting adaptor, making the entire unit ready for action on almost any firearm platform without the need for additional connectors or parts. Check out the Leapers website for more info on TL-BP01 or contact your local dealer for info on how to obtain the new Recon 360 today.

TL-BP01 MSRP: $79.97

HSUS Pleads, Lies to Florida Gov. to Stop Bear Hunt

A surprise to nobody, the Humane Society of the United States is protesting the state of Florida’s consideration of managing their ever-increasing black bear population. In a June 10 press conference, HSUS mouthpiece Laura Bevan spread false information and called on the governor to interfere with biologist recommendations and to stop any future bear hunt. As is typical HSUS style, you can bet the press-conference circus was just the first step in perverting state and federal systems to advance their radical agenda.

With human-bear encounters, road kill and other issues increasing throughout many regions of Florida, the state’s Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission has proposed a one-week hunting season in October for the bruins.

And, never missing an opportunity to stop hunting under any and all circumstances, HSUS used emotion and grandstanding to get the media’s attention in hopes of appearing relevant in any science-based discussion of hunting. The words they uttered, however, betray any semblance of knowledge on the subject. Read more

NSSF Supports H.R. 2710 ‘Lawful Purpose and Self Defense Act’

The National Shooting Sports Foundation, trade association for the firearms and ammunition industry, applauds the introduction yesterday of H.R. 2710, the Lawful Purpose and Self Defense Act of 2015, by Congressman Rob Bishop (R-UT), chairman of the House Committee on Natural Resources.

The bill would revise the Gun Control Act of 1968, as amended, to replace the “sporting purposes” and “sporting use” sections with modernizing language used to better define whether firearms and ammunition can be lawfully imported, possessed and transferred. NSSF considers the “sporting purpose” and “sporting use” provisions to be outdated and a hindrance to bringing lawful products to market. The 2008 Supreme Court’s decision in District of Columbia v. Heller noted that the core purpose of the Second Amendment is self-defense, and the language of H.R. 2710 will more accurately reflect this core meaning of the right to bear arms.

H.R. 2710 would prevent narrow interpretations of federal law, such as reclassifying certain rifle ammunition as “armor piercing.” Lack of a clear definition of what “sporting purposes” and “sporting use” mean has allowed, for example, the Obama Administration to try to circumvent Congress and attempt to ban a popular type of ammunition for modern sporting rifles.
