Aimpoint Micro T2
While Aimpoint sights have been a staple of military carbines for years now, today’s Micro T2 takes the same capability and shrinks it down to something truly tiny. The Micro T2 is tank-tough and waterproof up to 25 meters. The Micro T2 also sports perfect glass and a tiny footprint that leaves plenty of rail space for other accessories. For this design, Aimpoint started from scratch and incorporated the latest optical coating technology to increase performance above its already impressive baseline. (aimpoint.com; 877-246-7646)

Redding Reloading .22 TCM Die Set
The growing popularity of the .22 TCM load for plinkers and varmint shooters has spurred Redding Reloading Equipment to offer a new full-length die set for the cartridge. Thanks to the development of a specialized, reduced-duration-size button that allows the sizing die to function normally even with the short overall length of the .22 TCM case, this two-die set eliminates the need for the reloader to use a separate expander die. This significantly reduces the amount of time and die changes
in the loading process without compromising the quality of the finished round. (redding-reloading.com; 607-753-3331)
