    African Huntin Boots

    Timberland chocuras are the greatest hiking/hunting boot in all conditions but snow. I get about 4 years per pair and i put a LOT of miles on them.

    Time to go long on CRF rifles?

    Lefty bolt actions are already less common. Magnum length even more so. I think the CRF is getting hit by price. Even the nice bolt action rifles like tikkas and bergaras aren’t crf anymore

    Boeing Aircraft

    Ding. Boeing will never face the consequences a lesser company would because they ARE the USA aerospace industry. Lawsuits for wrongful deaths and FAA fines are the cost of doing business

    Politics

    I agree with you but i also think there’s another layer to this. Classification is a system set by the federal bureaucracy. The President is the duly elected highest office. I’m not saying rules don’t apply, but I think it’s ridiculous that some bureaucrat have that kind of power over the...

    New and pristine or used with patina?

    I don’t get much choice in the matter… i manage to damage just about everything I own pretty early on. I’m just rough on things

    marco polo x cloned sheep

    I’d love some plentiful and hardy not quite but mostly bighorn sheep. Maybe then I could actually afford to hunt one.

    The shmucks who consume legacy media still approve of biden. The establishment likes biden. 1.9% of our workforce is a federal employee so they like him. Everyone who’s business relies on government contracts like him. The automotive industry likes his green initiatives because it’s forcing...

    Love of Shooting in the Age of the 'Rona and The Big Guy

    I only really shoot 22 rimfire, 45-70, and a handful of 9mm. My 375 comes out on special occasions. My AK looks so sad and lonely in the corner of my gun room, but I just can’t bring myself to pay quadruple what i used to for ammo pre ‘rona.

    Curious why cape buffalo have the same minimum caliber requirement as Rhino, Hippo and Elephant?

    I haven’t hunted in Africa either, but Ive done a hell of a lot of research, and if you watch a large volume of youtube videos of animals killed with x caliber you get an idea pretty quickly for how animals shot by x caliber react. 1) .375 is the minimum diameter. For the bigger animals...

    I would respectfully disagree with you there. Perdue would find US citizens to work for them if their wages were higher and more competitive. Immigration legal and illegal is being used as a stopgap by employers to avoid raising wages. I understand importing technical knowledge, but most of what...

    Boeing Aircraft

    I’m sure shifting the focus from safety to skin color doesn’t help and is absolutely a step in the wrong direction. But that’s only exacerbating the deeper problem that the airline industry as a whole has a very shallow technical bench right now. They have people with decades of experience and...

    Gunwerks Skuhl 375 Ruger

    Axial compression is a function of cross sectional area AND the Young’s modulus. Considering carbon fiber is usually mostly hollow, or filled with foam, I bet the difference in felt stiffness is far less than you might think. Additionally, the modulus of elasticity of steel is around 215 Gpa...

    Not to be reductionist, but dictatorial thugs stick together. And considering the Chinese dictator for life Xi has given putin a special friendship medal recently, and the supplies, equipment, and weaponry china and north korea are sending to russia I think it’s unlikely that Russia will join...
