winter shooting gloves

[precision308]

Any suggestions on a good pair of winter shooting gloves. I figure they won't be the warmest gloves but I need something to help take out the chill but still alow me to still have consistant trigger pull dial dope load magazines and work the bolt
Thanks

I got a pair of Glacier Gloves Alaska River Series and they have been awesome in the cold. These came highly recommended to me by others on this site a few years ago.

My work provides PPE via Grainger, I use the Ninja Ice or whatever winter poly coated gloves that are on the shelf. Allows easy movement and bolt manipulation. Only thing that would make them perfect is a tab on the index finger for using a iphone

I use fleece gloves, current pair is mozilla (I think) 200 wgt fleece. I used Seamgrip and placed dots and beads on the index fingers, thumb and palm to give extra grip. I also wear gloves one size small to give that extra dexterity. I have been know to go sans gloves too at -25f when on the trigger.

Hydrate and eat well is more important than gloves to keep the fingers warm.

good luck

You may wish to consider Masley gloves.

While not shooting gloves, per se,the goat skin on the fingers and palms provides better dexterity than cowhide, once properly broken in.
The system utilizes a knit liner.
I typically put a chemical hand-warmer packet inside the liner, on the back of my hands to not interfere with my grip/weapon manipulation and yet warm the hand.
This works in all but the coldest weather for reasonable protection and reasonable dexterity.

I have used two pairs.

a North Face midweight fleece glove and a REI brand lightweight fleece glove. Both keep my hands warm. I actually got them for backcountry skiing but use them for shooting now too. The north face gloves do better in wet conditions. But the REI were cheaper and work great but seem to like to suck up the water Both fit in the triggers just fine

I've been using the outdoor research firemark, they are surprisingly warm(I'm a wimp for cold hands. If I am out a long time I use them along with a muff filled with chemical hand warmers.

What I have found to work best for me is a pair of under armor thin gloves with a wool shooters mitten over. My mittens allow the fingers to be exposed by folding back the end. I can shoot if I need to quickly or remove the mitten if time allows to set up for the shot and still have protection from the thinner under glove.

Nomex flight gloves work for me.

Any idea why a set of gloves would cost $276.30 for a pair? Are they really that good?

I use a Mazilla winstopper fleece. About as good as i have found for
Colder weather shooting. Also use them hunting and back country skiing. Affordable and good durability. Same set skiing for 4-5 yrs and holding up great

Cabelas has a few really warm pairs of glomits with thinsulate. The fingers are exposed and can be covered and the thumb can be exposed or covered and there's a hand warmer pocket to keep your hands warm.

I have a lot of different gloves, but I have found myself lately just wearing the cheap brown jersey gloves when actively doing something. I have a pair in every coat, so they are always handy. They really do seem to work well enough for working a bolt gun or shotgun, but not so great for pistol shooting. A pair of the thin liner type gloves really helps as well. New gear is cool, but sometimes the basic stuff works well enough.

Not those, not for me. For shooting I use fleece and usually go without on the trigger hand when behind the gun. $30/$40 max i n that application

In the $200 plus category Arcteryx makes a gauntlet/leather/gortex glove that I have been jonesing for but that would be for a ski/snow shoe application.

These Outdoor Research fleece gloves will work fine while at the bench but the Filson wool will be just as important as the gloves to keep the blood in the hands warm

For real cold weather ops the Outdoor Reseaarch Swoop two piece setup is the best I have used
The outer mits by themselves are very warm, there is an optional Nomex/leather "aviation" style glove that goes on the inside. The inner glove maintains very good dexterity:



The outer mit's "crab claw" design allows the three outer fingers to keep each other warm. The flap on the side of the palm can be pulled back and Velcro's the the rear of the mit allowing all four fingers to be independent:



If the operator chooses, the entire mit can be pulled up the sleeve allowing the hand full access-the best for acquiring a positive firing grip:

I use my Grenades. Technically, they're for snowboarding. But they work great for shooting too.
