ALPS OutdoorZ has introduced a new line of accessories designed to ensure maximum silence in the field while providing optimal protection from the elements, starting with an essential hunting accessory: the bino harness.

The all-new Shield Bino Harness utilizes the proprietary DEADQUIET fabric developed by ALPS OutdoorZ to create a bino harness that not only protects expensive optics from weather and environmental hazards but is extremely quiet.

The layered DEADQUIET fabric consists of a fleece exterior that effectively deadens the sound of contact with hands, brush and other clothing. The inside layer is a rugged suede that offers silent retrieval and replacement of binoculars and exhibits a high wear resistance for years of use. Sandwiched between these layers is a waterproof membrane that keeps binos dry and protected in all weather conditions.

Built on a structured case design for added protection and support, the DEADQUIET Shield Bino harness is adjustable for fit as clothing requirements change throughout the season. MOLLE webbing is integrated into both sides of the harness so that left- and right-hand archers and gun hunters can conveniently position a rangefinder, call or other attachments within easy reach without interference.

Additional features of the Shield Bino Harness include: suede-lined shove pocket that can accommodate a phone, handgun or other gear; silent, zipper-free access; reinforced elastic tethers with silent swivels that can be easily adjusted or removed; bottom MOLLE webbing that is perfect for securing the company’s DEADQUIET Ember Handwarmer.

The Shield Bino Harness has an MSRP of $49.99. For more information, visit alpsoutdoorz.com.

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.
