NIGHTFORCE VELOCITY RETICLE The Nightforce Velocity 1000 reticle, now available in select Nightforce riflescopes, allows you to place accurate shots out to 1,000 yards more quickly and proficiently than any other system. Matched to your rifle's ballistic profile and load, it eliminates guessing holdover, elevation adjustments and drop charts, while providing unprecedented speed and confidence in the field. Visit www.NightforceReticleCalculator.com. RUGER AMERICAN Each and every component in Ruger's new American Rifle is made in the U.S., plus it's offered in four all-American calibers, including .243 Win., .270 Win., .30-06 Springfield and .308 Win. Weighing just a tad more than six pounds, the American has a black, composite synthetic stock and matte-blued barreled action. Other features include Power-Bedding integral bedding blocks, a flush-fit, four-round rotary magazine, and a Marksman Adjustable Trigger that can be set from three to five pounds. VELOCITIP BALLISTIC SYSTEM Knowing that success in archery is all about precision, the engineers at Full Flight Technology set out to develop the most sophisticated microelectronics technology ever applied in the field of archery. At the heart of their patented VELOCITIP Ballistic system is a ruggedized 100-grain electronic field point and ergonomic handheld docking station. The field point directly measures arrow drag throughout flight. You can store flight data for up to four shots and plug the field point into the portable docking station for immediate download and display. Clear the field point memory and shoot again. The system provides precise trajectory, retained energy, plus launch and impact values of speed, kinetic energy and momentum for each shot. Use the PC software to generate trajectory plots and spreadsheet-style reports. The system helps archers select and evaluate equipment or make adjustments to their equipment and shooting form to maximize downrange force and accuracy.
