Where are you all at on this apparently hot-button issue? I have heard much scuttlebutt lately decrying the firing of .38 ammunition (especially in revolvers) chambered in .357 Magnum. The fly in the proverbial ointment being that prolonged application will result in gas erosion in the cylinder...

Happy Father’s Day Men!

Does anyone have any experience with audio to text transcription technology? I would like to buy or download software that enables me to take voice notes and transcribe them verbatim to a word document. I would also like to be able to write via speaking into a microphone on my computer. Thanks...

As of today, May 29th, my wife Emma and I are celebrating 10 happy years of marriage. Together we have two wonderful kids, Andy and Melanie and many happy memories. Here’s to the next 10 years!! 🍻

Of all of the Creedmoor cartridges, I must say the .22 and .25 intrigue me the most. I see that a new 128 grain ELDX is being produced by Hornady for the new .25 Creedmoor and has a G-1 Bc of .633, my question is, does anyone think I have a prayer of getting that bullet to stabilize in a...

So while working on the ranch today, I found couple of brown elk sheds which was nice. I was fixing fence and went to drive my 4-wheeler under a tree branch which happened to snap off and tattoo a lightning bolt on my right bicep. I was pleased. 🤦‍♂️🤬 On the way back I saw two snakes (neither...

In the same vein as the other “favorite” posts, lets talk about our favorite handguns! Lets say one single-action revolver, one double action revolver, one semi-automatic and one rimfire. Single-action for me is kind of a tie. If I could afford an original Colt Bisley, it would undoubtedly...

So if the magic gun giving blonde goddess Danielle (or whatever name you have for her) was to appear at the foot of your bed at midnight, hovering a foot or so off the ground and grant you three gun wishes…what would be your three? One rifle, one shotgun, and one handgun. The rifle is the...

When it isn't cloudy, windy, snowing, or raining the ground squirrels and rock chucks have been out here in Eastern Oregon. Got the squirrel pictured below with my High Standard .22 pistol at about 30 yards. I rested over a fence post and got him with the first shot. The rock chuck was a 200...

I love shooting my Model 39 with a Williams receiver peep sight. My wife wears glasses and really struggles with irons of any kind. I bought a Leupold 4x rimfire and mounted it on a weaver one piece base with weaver 1” rings but the setup seems kinda bulky. I don’t necessarily need more...

Last year was not the best year of my life. Sickness, loss of friends and family, economic struggles and many more rain clouds seemed to pour on me and my family. There were a couple of windfalls however, our little girl was born healthy in May, I got a lot of remodeling done on the house, and...

Anyone ever heard of the .338 Engels?

Does anyone own one of these? Before I incur the wrath of the “AR-15 or die” club, let me say I have owned an AR-15 and simply didn’t care for it. It was loud, heavy and I didn’t like the lines. I sighted it in and played with it at the range. The rest of the time it sat in the corner. Meh...

Who does everyone prefer? I went to Tisas website to order some additional mags for my 1911 A1 9mm but the reviews there were a crap shoot. Apparently its a random draw, which brand (Mec-gar, Sabatti, others) they will send whether or not it’s functional. So rather than roll the dice, I think I...
