Roland in his rock house could have lasted indefinitely. I think “Alone” as with any survival-type show has a psychological work up of contestants selected. They gather an assembly of normies, kooks and several fruitloops to make good TV.
“Alone” is more mental toughness than any other show...
Dusty is my winner. Dude’s like an idiot abroad, but he’s got good bushcraft and that goes far in this show. Ms. Métis-Cree is a strong female contestant who will go far.
I think the most unobtrusive and equal resolution would be wake free zones and limited HP. Used to be no combustion engines would exclude the riff raff, but now with electric engines going mainstream that won’t work anymore. If you were in Nebraska then the argument could be made about access...
Ya, tell ya what, Brent, I don’t know if my own dog might actually be a wolf now. That summertime half a fawn shot is wild. The summer pic right beneath that I would have previously confidently labeled coyote. Especially with the angle making the ears appear goofy sideways coyote.
That’s even faster twist than I thought. I’ll try to make the 160s work and settle for 2,400fps as good enough. Those 101 hammers would be wicked at 3,400fps, but likely exceed 51,000 to get there. Hammer does offer 120s which could be the difference we need with seating depth less of a concern...
I’m helping a friend work up a 7x57 load for mule deer this fall. I’m really excited to do this cartridge as it’s the predecessor of 30-06; we’re working the tools of the ancient lost arts here. The gun is a Mauser marked 1893 and carbine length. Buddy got a box of S&B 140gr to cook off for some...
We’ve been buying that Costco double pack for years now and here’s my default preparation. Put the tri tip on a wire rack in the fridge for a couple days. Trim all fascia and some fat. Let sit on the counter for an hour. Then liberally pat the whole thing with Montreal steak seasoning. Heat up...
That new Canadian Ranger Tikka T3x is sweet. Not a classic scout with that forward mounted scope rail, but everything else. Can’t get it in USA for now. This T3x Drover is next best thing. I think if a guy is set to blow $1,000 on a 308 anyway, make it a Tikka (Sako)...
I’m happy about this and especially that there was no plea deal or interference from other Federal branches. Checks and balances. Impartial interpretation of the law. Justice for all. Good on ya, Federal government.
