REVIEW: Garmin Xero C1 Pro Chronograph

6 days ago | shoot-on.com | Rob Reaser

by Rob ReaserWe have discussed many times here how even the smallest and most minute, seemingly inconsequential variables in ammunition and firearm construction, design, and materials can influence accuracy (point-of-impact repeatability). Handloaders are especially keen on this, as are precision shooters and long-range bullseye-chasers. Two of the key measures of firearm/ammunition terminal performance are bullet velocity and the associated kinetic energy.
FIRST TEST: Dead Air Sandman X Suppressor

2 weeks ago | shoot-on.com | Rob Reaser

by Rob ReaserMarking its 10-year anniversary, Dead Air Silencers isn’t what you would consider to be a young company. Neither is it counted among the many upstart enterprises that are steadily filling the suppressor marketplace. But in its decade of operation, Dead Air Silencers has earned a mighty reputation for building reliable, hard-use suppressors for a broad range of applications. Leading that noteworthy pack is the Sandman series — the line that launched the company.
TESTED: Steiner H6Xi 2-12x42mm RFP Riflescope

2 weeks ago | shoot-on.com | Brad Fitzpatrick

by Brad FitzpatrickAny list of premium riflescope manufacturers would be incomplete without mentioning Steiner. The German brand is renowned for producing scopes that offer rugged dependability, superb optical quality, and precise adjustments. Steiner recently unveiled their H6Xi hunting scope, an optic that shares a lot of DNA with the company’s tactical T6Xi scope.
FIRST TEST: Fiocchi SBR Enhanced Ammo

by Rob ReaserFor many AR-15 fans, the short-barrel rifle configuration is the next step up in a personal or home defense platform. Such was my thinking when I went through the administrative aggravation of building a short-barrel AR rifle during the early part of nonsensical Covid years. The SBR made a whole lot of sense to me in a .300 Blackout chambering.

by Brad FitzpatrickIn April of 1986, FBI field agents attempted to apprehend violent criminals William Matix and Michael Platt near Miami, Florida. Matix and Platt opened fire, mortally wounding two agents and wounding several others. In the aftermath of the tragedy, it was determined that Platt had managed to fire a number shots at agents even after being struck several times.
FIRST TEST: Burris Fullfield 6-24x50 Riflescope

4 weeks ago | shoot-on.com | Rob Reaser

by Rob ReaserBurris optics have a long history in hunting circles, and rightly so. Don Burris — formerly an engineer working for the Redfield optic company in Denver, CO — established his own company in 1971 with the sole intent to build the premiere hunting riflescope. Burris’ guiding star for his “better” optic included a wider field-of-view for faster sight picture acquisition and improved game observation. The fledgling company released its first product, the Fullfield riflescope, in 1975.
Big Guns, Bigger Game

by Wayne van ZwollIn 1873, Winchester announced its first centerfire cartridge, the .44 W.C.F. (.44-40) and a lever-action repeating rifle to fire it. The U.S. Army issued its first .45-70 rifles. And Samuel Colt trotted out his Single Action Army revolver. In Africa, explorer and missionary David Livingstone died at 32. Hunters were already killing buffalo for market on our western frontier, and elephants for their ivory in Africa. Elephants would outlast buffalo.
FIRST LOOK: Axcess 3-Piece AR Trigger Series

1 month ago | shoot-on.com | Rob Reaser

by Rob ReaserHistorically, AR triggers have taken two paths. Path #1 is the MILSPEC design — Stoner’s original configuration that has worked well for decades. Path #2 is represented by aftermarket triggers — assorted designs that are major leaps ahead of the MILSPEC variety in terms of precision and overall performance. And just as the performance differential between MILSPEC and aftermarket AR triggers is huge, so, too, is the price.
TURKEY GUN TECH: Patterning, Prepping, and Peanut Oil

1 month ago | shoot-on.com | Larry Case

by Larry Case and Rob Reaser[Part 1 – Ballistics]Maybe you have noticed that things have changed in the turkey shotgun and ammo world. Once upon a time, most of us used one shotgun for just about everything. Whether ducks, rabbits, pheasants, deer, or turkeys, you grabbed the same scatter gun and went hunting. Thing is, this isn’t your Grandad’s turkey hunting world anymore. Almost everyone you know who hunts these crazy birds in the spring has at least one dedicated turkey shotgun.
FIRST LOOK! Burris FastFire E Enclosed Emitter Red Dot

1 month ago | shoot-on.com | Rob Reaser

by Rob ReaserWe’ve discussed several times recently that enclosed emitter red dot sights seem to be ascending for use across various firearm platforms and for various applications. Perhaps it is merely a subtle trend, a coincidence, a desire to explore “the next thing,” or maybe something else. Regardless of the why, enclosed emitter red dots seem to be becoming more popular — whether for handguns, rifles, or shotguns.
