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.

Behind the Bullet: The .22 Long

If we could rewind the clock to 1871, before the .45-70 Government and .45 Colt existed, and when cartridges themselves were just establishing a foothold in the shooting world, you’d find a pair of .22-caliber rimfire designs: the .22 Short and the .22 Long. Aptly named, these cartridges would survive well into the 20th century, ultimately being conquered by the .22 Long Rifle cartridge. But in certain situations, the .22 Long cartridge still makes good sense, and actually has a few specialized applications.
