Intercept BDC

TruGlo has reintroduced its Intercept rifle scope for 2022, with new features designed to give shooters a broader range of options and improved performance in the hunting fields.

The Intercept returns in its familiar 3X-9X-40mm optical configuration, but includes a new glass-etched BTX IR duplex reticle. This reticle’s fresh design allows it to be used either illuminated (the scope offers 11 illumination settings, or can be ordered without illumination). The  multi-coating glass delivers brightness in low-light conditions, as well as excellent clarity and contrast.

Another feature expansion of the revised Intercept scope is found in the turrets. Three interchangeable turrets are included: MOA, 350 Legend, and 450 Bushmaster. The MOA turret provides precise bullet drop compensation adjustment for any load, while the 350 Legend and 450 Bushmaster turrets are calibrated for quick-turn adjustment based on yardage and standard cartridge ballistics. This is especially welcome for these heavy-weight bullets and their notable trajectory arc beyond typical hunting distances.

Additional features of the upgraded Intercept scope include a rubber-coated speed-focus eyepiece, robust machined ribbing on all control surfaces to facilitate operation with gloved hands, a scratch-resistant, non-reflective matte finish, and a neoprene scope cover.

5 Things I Wish Someone Had Told Me Before My First Elk Hunt

I grew up hunting whitetails in the Midwest, and while I thought I was in “elk shape” on my first western hunt, I quickly learned that chasing elk at high elevation requires an entirely different level of fitness. You’ll likely hike for hours, oftentimes at high elevation, and many of trails you’ll follow are filled with deadfall and uneven rocks. If you’re fortunate enough to fill your tag, the real work starts.
