    Vector Continental 2-12×50 (Plain game hunting version)

    Vector Optics has been trying to shed its “budget-only” image for a few years, and the Continental series is their tip of the spear. The 2-12×50 is a classic “do-it-all” hunting configuration.

    Riton 3 Primal 3-15LW and 4-16 Review

    Finding a mid-tier scope that doesn’t feel like a compromise can be tricky. Riton has been making waves by offering high-end features — like HD glass and rugged 30mm tubes — at prices that don’t require a second mortgage.

    Flextail Zero Power Bank Review

    If you’ve been following the ultralight gear scene, you know the Nitecore NB10000 (review here) and new NB Plus (YouTube review here) have ruled the roost for years.
