Browning X-Bolt Speed LR

If you’re the type of hunter who hones your skills by shooting at varying distances throughout the year, the X-Bolt Speed LR from Browning is ready to impress. From the pop of lead hitting steel at over a thousand yards away to setting your crosshairs on a trophy buck, the Speed LR has the features and out-of-the-box accuracy to give you confidence in your shot.

Built on the most popular X-Bolt rifle ever, the Speed LR rifle takes the same winning features and adds a sporter contour barrel for increased long-range accuracy. Barrel fluting reduces the weight of the barrel, increases the exposed surface area of the barrel (reducing barrel heating), and offers a more rigid barrel with less weight. The barrel is also belled at the muzzle and features 5/8″-24 TPI suppressor-ready threads. This threading also accepts the Browning Recoil Hawg muzzle brake. The action is bedded in the stock to free-float the barrel and ensure consistent accuracy. The barreled action is protected by a Smoked Bronze Cerakote finish. Cerakote is a superior, non-reflective, and corrosion-resistant coating that is more durable than traditional bluing or bare stainless steel. Read more

Hornady Security RAPiD Vehicle Safe

The Hornady Security RAPiD Vehicle Safe completely changes the game regarding storing firearms and valuables in a vehicle. The RAPiD Vehicle Safe allows users to keep their handguns and other valuables safe without coming at the cost of vehicle modifications. The attached inflatable bladder slides between the center console and the driver’s seat of any vehicle. By squeezing the inflator bulb, the inflation bladder holds enough tension to keep the safe in place. A cable then anchors the safe to a hard point while its padding on one side protects the vehicle from installation damage.

The RFID entry system allows for touchless, fast, dependable entry when users need quick access to their handguns. RFID stickers, key fobs, or watchband tags allow maximum versatility and fast access when the user needs their handgun. The RFID stickers can be placed upon existing key fobs and scanned over the RFID reader to open the safe. The RFID watch band fits most common-sized wrist watches allowing users who do not wish to carry a key fob rapid access to the safe.

The RAPiD Vehicle Safe affords the user two different ways to power the safe. The 12VDC car adapter allows the safe to be powered by vehicle power. For those that do not desire to have or can’t plug the safe in, the safe has the option to get power from four AAA batteries. The two power sources allow for all-time access to the user’s handgun regardless of whether the vehicle is running. The safe can be programmed with a 4-6 digit security code and includes a barrel key for back-up entry in the case of a power failure. Read more

Rio Grande Cutthroat Trout—a Model for Fisheries Conservation

In this the 50th anniversary year of the Endangered Species Act, it is worth noting that Rio Grande cutthroat a decade ago were considered for listing—and potential restricted angling. Thanks to fishery management endeavors already underway, that didn’t happen. A conservation strategy backed with much data guides work today and into the future.

Anglers are the archetypal optimists and there is much to look forward to in Colorado and New Mexico if you like to catch Rio Grande cutthroat trout. That’s thanks to conservation endeavors by biologists with Colorado Parks and Wildlife and the New Mexico Department of Game and Fish, and their diligent work funded by federal excise taxes paid by tackle manufacturers. Sport Fish Restoration (Dingell-Johnson) dollars partly pay the way to conserve this gem with fins with a natural distribution that lies over the artificial state line in the upper Rio Grande and Canadian River drainages.
