Code Of Silence Fleece Inner

Code of Silence has recently launched its FareWinds Merino-LR early season and layering collection. FareWinds is available in three essential series for everything from early-season active hunting to all-season layering.

Among the most emblematic garments of this new FareWinds line is the FareWinds HighLoft 1/2 Zip Sweater. This piece provides mid- to heavy-layering performance with comfortable and simple functionality. This garment is anchored by an exclusive Merino-LR HighLoft Fabric with unprecedented loft, stretch, wind inhibition and breathability.

Farewinds hi loft

The 400 grams per square meter (GSM) HighLoft fabric and the sweater’s interior sherpa lining creates incredible overall thermal efficiency that allow one to stay on-stand and comfortable, even in the most brutal late-season hunts.

Like all the products in the FareWinds Collection, the HighLoft ½ Zip combines stretch, breathability, overall thermal efficiency and extreme quietness. The HighLoft can easily be worn as mid-season outerwear as well, since the piece features the same light absorbency characteristics as other Code of Silence apparel. The reduced usage of highly reflective synthetic fabrics and the incorporation of organic, jacquard knit materials along with the S18 Camo pattern ensure the garment maintains a low profile while in the field.

Features

  • 400 GSM MerinoLR HighLoft Fabric.
  • Interior sherpa lining with wind resistant barrier.
  • YKK sternal front zipper.
  • Stretch cuffs with thumb holes.

Behind the Bullet: The .308 Norma Magnum

Norma’s ballistician Nils Kvale saw the wisdom of having the velocity and horsepower of the .300 H&H Magnum, but in a shorter, more affordable receiver, and used the H&H case to develop his .358 Norma Magnum in 1959 as well as the .308 Norma Magnum one year later. The .308 Norma Magnum closely resembles the wildcat .30-338 cartridge, though the shoulder of the former is located a bit more toward the base than that of the .308 Norma Magnum. Intrigued?
