Savage MSR 15 Valkyrie
Savage MSR 15 Valkyrie gets the most out of the hottest new round in long-range shooting: Federal Premium’s 224 Valkyrie. Together, the Savage rifle and Federal cartridge elevate the MSR 15 platform to new heights with unheard-of long-range precision and ballistic performance. The 224 Valkyrie maintains flat trajectories with supersonic velocities out past 1,300 yards, all with match-grade accuracy and only half the recoil of older, larger cartridges needed to achieve comparable trajectories. The competition-ready MSR 15 Valkyrie rifle features an upgraded 18-inch barrel with 5R rifling and a crisp two-stage trigger. Elite Series Cerakote finish for a tough protective layer on upper and lower. Adjustable gas block mid-length gas system can be set up for specific ammunition to get the most reliable cycling. Muzzle brake with 1/2x28 Class 3 barrel thread. Hogue pistol grip and UBR Gen 2 buttstock. MSRP: $1,499. For more information go online at: www.savagearms.com

Milwaukee Tool Lockback Pocket Knife compliments the Fastback™ line that has become the standard for durability and performance in an affordable work knife. Some simply prefer a manual folder instead of a one-hand press and flip, and with this design, the spine of the knife locks into the blade for a strong, secure hold. Apply pressure to a button to disengage the lock and release the 3-inch stainless steel blade. Long-lasting edge; ergonomic glass-filled nylon handle; reversible wire clip for pocket carry as well as a lanyard hole for tethering. MSRP: $14.99. Contact: Milwaukee Electric Tool Company, Dept.

Federal Heavyweight TSS assures gobbler-dropping loads well beyond traditional range limits with a dense payload of No. 7 or 9 Heavyweight Tungsten Super Shot that provides the highest pellet counts possible—up to double those of lead No. 5 loads of the same weight. The tungsten-alloy is 22-percent denser than standard tungsten and 56-percent denser than lead for devastating impact energy at extreme range. Rear-braking Flitecontrol Flex™ full-length wad and clear card wad keeps buffering in place for consistently full patterns. Roll crimp prevents direct contact of the extra-hard pellets with the bore. Performs flawlessly through ported or standard chokes. Available in 12-gauge, 20-gauge, and .410 shells. Five-count pack MSRP starts at $29.95 with a portion of proceeds donated to the National Wild Turkey Federation. For more information contact: www.federalpremium.com
