      Talk me into a 45-70 single shot.....

      Every so often I get looking at old style single shot rifles like the 1885, sharps, falling blocks, and whatever else falls into that category. Usually this happens after I've watched Quigley Down Under, even though I know he didn't use a 45-70. For plinking uses I think it'd be fun to get out...

      What are the current "good to go" hard use red dot optics?

      It's been a while since I've setup an AR, but couple times I used an Aimpoint PRO. I've been very happy with them and I like them a lot. I wouldn't have any hesitation to buy another. However, I get that times change and there's other options out there as well. I'm curious what the generally...

      What's a good 9mm competition pistol?

      I'm curious what people are using who shoot pistol competitions. I shoot long range rifle competitions, that usually throw in some pistol targets here and there, but it's certainly not the focus of the event or challenging targets. For what I've been doing I've been using my G17 gen 4 with...

      My medical prep fail last night.

      Last night my daughter got a cut on her leg. It was more than a scratch and less than requires stitches, which is where the butterfly bandages come into play. I dumped a big tote of all kinds of medical stuff on my ping pong table last night covering half of it spread out and sure enough, I...

      Rifle reciprocity and transporting through different states.

      I like to use the USCCA handgun reciprocity map to double check any recent changes in state laws before leaving on any roadtrips that cross state lines. I have one such event coming up within a week and it got me double checking. I'm good on the handgun, but I usually keep an AR15 broken down...

      Where are most of our bolt action rifles made?

      Lately I've been really wishing I had a good old fashioned bolt action 30-06 in a walnut stock. Something elmer fudd would be proud to own and pass down. Something that will get some dings and handling marks in a beautiful walnut stock. Seems to me like if I'm going for something like that I...

      Mossberg aftermarket safety for their pump shotguns?

      Have any of you used an aftermarket safety on a mossberg 500/590/590A1? If so what brand did you chose and how did you like it? The reason I ask is because back in the day I had a 590A1 where I put one on from Brownells...

      Question on bear defense rounds for wilderness adventures

      So I've been to Alaska twice in the last couple years and I'm always trying to find ways to get back up there. The next trips I've got in mind are farther out into the wilderness and more wild. In the past I've made due with bear spray for a lot of reasons I don't like, but logistically it's...

      Newfoundland Hunts?

      I'm getting the itch to go on a big hunting trip again. My father in law has always wanted a moose, I wouldn't mind a black bear or carribou and we're looking at Newfoundland. Alaska is just too expensive, and there's long waiting lists to even get a remote fly in. We've looked into it, and...

      Who's got a night vision scope they'd recommend?

      I'd like an actual night vision scope. I'm not trying to pretend to be a ninja, but I'd like to be able to make quality hits on varmints at night and the IR lasers I'd used are adequate, but I'd prefer a reticle. I've had the class 1 IR lasers get all weird and blurry when they get on fur...

      Best source for powder?

      I've been looking high and low for some reloader 15. I haven't found any through my normal places I look. If anyone knows a place online where I can get some please let me know. I'm trying to work out a load for my 308 and my IMR 4064 just isn't getting it where I need it to be. Thanks.

      Controlled round feeding options?

      I've been looking into a controlled round feeding bolt action. The more and more I look into things in Alaska, the more I like the idea. I'm not sure who all is making a controlled round feeding rifle outside of the Winchester model 70, or a Ruger M77 Hawkeye. Are there others that I'm not...

      Anyone else tracking the growing # of countries leaving the US Dollar?

      It seems like my alternative news feeds are a constant news update of new countries making agreements to buy & sell outside of the US dollar. It appears we're on the verge of the world deciding that the US dollar is no longer the global reserve currency. I've only heard nightmares of what that...

      Shopping list for a Costco food run, suggestions?

      In my normal food rotations it's time to restock and I thought it'd be a good mental exercise to play here with everyone. We could pick a $$ value, but I'd rather see the list the people would think of if they were going to run to Costco to stock up on food and supplies. I'm not trying to...

      Where do you buy air tight sealed buckets?

      I need a few and not sure what's a good brand or bad one. Looking for sealed containers for bags of flours, beans, etc.

      How many people are reviewing where they bank after recent events?

      I'm digging into where I bank and how strong it's financial sheet is. With recent events I've got family who work for a company that banked at one of the recently destroyed banks in California. I get both sides of the issue, that it's not the governments job to back people money and we should...

      Quality left handed AR options or other suggestion?

      I've got family who've recently returned to the free state of Indiana and wants to get a quality AR15 in a left handed version. Once upon a time he had a lefty RRA and it was decent for the couple of times he shot it but personally I'd like to see him buy something of better quality. I dont...

      Berkey replacement filters

      I need more berkey replacement filters. Ideally, I'd like to get 4 or 6 of them. Back when I bought my Berkey, there weren't a lot of options other than Berkey. Are there good generic options out there?

      What happened to surplus tracer ammunition?

      Did something happen to surplus 5.56 tracer ammunition? From time to time for a special occasion or a good visual demonstration I grab some tracer ammo for my home range. Today I was looking for some more online and it seems like it's all dried up or $3-$4 per round. Did I miss some type of...
