Burris has announced the release of its all-new, completely redesigned Eliminator 6. With the push of a button, the Eliminator 6 offers instant and precise ranging out to 2,000-plus yards on reflective targets and 1,400 yards on deer. Simply place the reticle on the target, depress the ranging button, and the distance in yards or meters is presented on the scope's heads-up display (HUD). The riflescope features a built-in thermometer, barometer and inclinometer, and it automatically measures density altitude, which can manually selected, if preferred.

The ballistic solutions are built on the BurrisConnect app and uploaded to the scope. Bluetooth connectivity between the scope and the user's mobile device allows the user to create an internal DOPE card in the scope that combines ranging, environmental and ballistic data to achieve the perfect shot. Users can create profiles using factory load data or completely custom covering firearms from muzzleloaders and slug guns to precision rifles.

The scope's illuminated X177 reticle then displays the precise holdover aiming point for the ranged distance. Combined with the reticle's windage hold-off points, the Eliminator 6 offers 177 aim points with ⅕ MOA precision to ensure reliable point-of-aim/point-of-impact performance.

Also available in the HUD is bullet velocity and bullet energy at the ranged distance. This allows the hunter to recognize when the shot distance may be too far and the velocity/energy too low to ensure an ethical kill. In addition, the scope also offers a ShotCall Marker that will display an "X" if the user defined ballistic terminal performance is inadequate at the ranged distance.

Rethinking Ragù: Venison Ragù Bianco

In Italy, ragù simply refers to a slow-cooked meat sauce. Bolognese—ragù alla Bolognese—is just one regional variation that originated in Bologna and traditionally incorporates tomatoes, wine, milk, and finely minced meat simmered low and slow until deeply rich and complex. But some of the most beautiful ragù dishes in Italy contain little or no tomato at all. This version uses axis deer simply because that’s what I happened to have in the freezer, but this sauce works beautifully with almost any species of venison.
