Sightmark Accudot Red Laser Boresight

Sightmark’s Accudot Red Laser Boresight will save on ammo costs, but it very well may save more than that—avoiding the disaster that can come when muzzle-mounted bore sighters aren’t removed before a shot is fired. The Sightmark prevents all that fuss because it loads into the chamber, preventing the need to hang anything from the muzzle. A red dot is projected from the muzzle that you can align with the crosshairs on your scope, and while it may not have the rifle perfectly zeroed on the first shot you won’t waste an hour chasing paper. $50 | sightmark.com

Streamlight TLR-1 HP-X

The TLR-1 HP-X delivers a powerful high-candela beam for superior long-range visibility. Its front-loading battery compartment provides fast, effortless replacements in the field. With multi-fuel flexibility, it accepts either two SL-B9® USB rechargeable protected lithium-ion battery packs or CR123A lithium batteries. User-interchangeable switches conform to your preferred shooting style. $335 | streamlight.com

The Tracker is a two-piece sling designed for all-day comfort for hunters, and it features a foam padding sandwiched between five-ounce cowhide and a soft suede backing.

Now it’s in Fiocchi’s terrific Hyperformance line. Offerings include both PRCs: a 120-grain at 3,070 fps in the 6.5 and a 150 at 3,110 in the 7mm.

(80 at 3,275) as well as the 6mm Creedmoor (80 at 3,300). $ Varies | FiocchiUSA.com
