    Best Hog hunting caliber?

    35 rem or 308 in semi or lever. Bolts are too slow for quick follow ups on multiple hogs. I'm a huge fan of an AR15 in 6.8 spc II for hogs. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I847 using Tapatalk 2

    Keymod accessory rails

    Is there a small "tooth" on the underside of one end of the rail? If so, it has to slide into the hole of next forward slot from the rail. At least the noveske quick detach slung swivel I have is like this. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I847 using Tapatalk 2

    New style Lee hand primer SUCKS!

    I bought a new style Lee and I hate it. The action is really stiff compared to the old one and it will flip primers right before it loads one. A different make/model is on the list of things to buy. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I847 using Tapatalk 2

    Suppressors Semi-auto .308 Suppressor Recommendations

    Specwar 7.62 is rated to 300 ultra mag! It will handle most anything I could ever throw at it. I don't own full auto anything or enough money to shoot 308 anything fast enough to get near the temps to damage the specwar. Yes, it us a little heavier but no more than other full size stainless...

    Suppressors Semi-auto .308 Suppressor Recommendations

    I highly suggest the saker 7.62. I have totem to use one and watch one in use on several hog hunts. It was used on a 12.5 PWS .308, a 16" 6.8 spc ar-15, and an 8.5" 300 black out ar-15. It did a great job suppressing each rifle. If you are set on buying one before the saker gets to dealers...

    Wet tumbling drying rack

    Yes, annealing can be done at lower temps with enough time. Now is that a practical amount of time? Not typically. Will putting brass on the oven at 170 degs f hurt it? Maybe if forgotten about for a week. My intent was not to start a debate about phase change vs annealing or even the...

    Wet tumbling drying rack

    This is correct. All metals have a specific temperature they must reach in order to be annealed. Take a loom at the iron carbon equilibrium (ICE) chart. It is a steel based chart, but it a visual depiction of what the above post is talking about...

    Night Vision Laser and/or illuminator?

    I don't see how his claim is slanderous?? He had one of your lights with the mount that came with it. It failed while on a hunt. He feels it is not a quality mount because of this. That isn't any different than if I came on here and said xyz sight sucks because it wont hold zero or ABC...

    Night Vision Hunting video using NV and Thermal.

    I was the camera man on the charge clip at the end. I wish I would have kept the camera up and going, but I had to side step to avoid the other hunter while he side stepped. It was a pretty intense moment! I like to get my clients close to pigs, but that boar took getting close to another...

    Night Vision Laser and/or illuminator?

    I'm not a fan of the dbal-d2 because it blooms so much even at 100 yards. Of course, if it has the low power setting it is much better. I am currently using a nvec vital 2 laser and a Luna optics IR light. I think it is the best bang for the buck and versatile. Of course I would be happy...

    Hunting & Fishing Hog hunting video.

    All of the video was shot in very large open areas and shots were not taken towards houses, equipment, barns, etc. We are extremely careful with the direction our shots are taken during our hunting. We do hunt a couple of smaller parcels of land, but they are surrounded by much larger open...
