Rifle Shooter Magazine Jun/Jul 25 Vorige editie

Welcome to our bumper June/July edition of Rifle Shooter-a kit-packed, story-rich issue designed to see you right through summer and beyond.
Our test benches have been in overdrive. We’ve put the Hikmicro Falcon II and WULF Defender II through their paces, Phil Ogden’s exquisitely made roe sack is tested in the field, and we discovered why Kite Optics’ new twist on binocular tech is turning heads. Thermal aficionados should check out the razor-sharp Nocpic Quest H50R, while Paul Austin’s very own range-box favourites might just inspire your next “essential” upgrade.
On the technical front, Paul Bradley returns with another ballistic deep-dive, and we pair foxing maestros Mark Ripley and Mike Powell for a double helping of IR-lit action.
As ever the stalking theme continues with Alex Hatton’s ever-popular Stalker’s Diary, a five-knife field test, and Chris Dalton’s line-up of do-anything stalking jackets. Bruce Potts finally gets hands-on with the Tikka Ace, we chase bear in Croatia, and I bounce around home turf in the seriously capable CFMOTO U10 Pro UTV.
Round it out with Jon Snowdon’s insight, Diggory Hadoke’s sharp-edged vintage column, Mark Underwood on calibre lore, fresh CIC news, and introduction to the very latest from Can-Am, plus a stunning wild-game recipe - and you’ve got an issue thats as full-bodied as a Highland stag in October.
Gear, know-how, or just a cracking read - whatever brings you here, you’re in for a treat. Dive in and enjoy!
