ALPS OutdoorZ has introduced its new Impact Pro turkey vest, boasting the same innovative features and conveniences of the original Impact, with a series of bolstering upgrades that the serious turkey hunter will appreciate.

ALPS designers have incorporated the stadium seat concept—the folding, portable stadium seats that provide stand-alone back support so you can sit comfortably anywhere—into the new Impact Pro, doing away with bulky, floppy fold-up seats often attached to the back of many conventional turkey vests. The stadium seat design is made of a high-density, molded foam bottom cushion and backrest to minimize bulk while ensuring maximum comfort and protection from the cold or wet ground.

To deploy, simply drop the seat cushion and sit. The system is ideal for any turkey hunting scenario, but especially for the run-and-gun hunter who may need to set up—and sit still—for an extended period.

Additionally, molded front pockets keep diaphragm calls from being crushed or damaged, while removable, adjustable box call and ThermaCELL pockets ensure you have everything you need within easy reach.

In the back, the Impact Pro integrates an oversized game bag, so you can haul that big tom on the long trek back to the truck or camp. A large cargo pocket with adjustable strap-and-buckle closures is the perfect place for carrying water, a knife, flashlight, snacks or rain gear. Included MOLLE webbing allows for further customization.

With an MSRP of $149.99, the new Impact Pro turkey vest comes in Mossy Oak Original Bottomland camouflage and weighs 5 pounds.

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.
