    What is America's all time best, purely civilian hunting cartridge?

    There are plenty of great ones, 22LR, 270 or 30-30, but over the past decade the 7mm Rem Mag has become my favorite.

    That's great! They didn't have any RL 22 when I was on there.

    Favorite conceal carry choices

    Glock 19! All day every day. In my LEO and military career I've carried: Sig 226, 290, 250, M17, Springfield XD's in 45 and 9, S&W M&P 45, Beretta M9. Put a Trijicon RMR or similar on top, and you're ready to go. I think the Glock 19 is a great balance of size, capacity, weight, and...

    Single or double drop tine?

    Double Drop! Just because it sounds cooler to say. Great buck no matter what you call it!

    Mountain Performance Clothing

    I started down the same path as you several years back. Always hunted in East TN and started making regular trips out west. I've made a lot of purchasing mistakes and blew a bunch of money going by the name or hype of the company. Luckily I've been able to pass most of those on. Here's a list...

    US Made Sleeping Bags

    Western mountaineering Kodiak. I’ve been disappointed by a lot of bags in the past. WM bags are great! Meet or exceed their ratings comfortably unlike other bags who list a survival rating

    Lightweight Spotting Scope

    Kowa 554 for straight eyepiece or 553 for angles. I've used Kowa for about 10-12 years and there is truly none better.

    25-06 or 280AI

    I would see if you can even find the components to reload a 280AI right now. Is the 25-06 the only cartridge you reload? If so, I say stick with what you know and have great confidence in. The 25-06 is a great round, plenty for sheep, and adequate for elk with proper blah blah bla blah. The...

    I need 7mm r mag rounds....HELP!😪

    Cheapest I've seen lately is about $70-75 for a 50 count of Nosler brass. I still kick myself for not buying more Norma brass a couple yrs ago. Now it's discontinued.

    Brownells has 165gr 30cal Accubonds in stock. If anyone is near East TN, I have lots of 556 and 7.62x51 LC once fired brass and a few extra pounds of RL22. Looking for 500 (yes just five hundred) large rifle primers.

    Hiding cameras

    You're not liable for someone's injury who knowingly trespasses on your property. Stop sticks and cattle trops are for the stopping of vehicles, not personnel booby traps, just like gates, posts, or barricades. If it's your property, and marked/posted accordingly, then you can have just about...

    Military and First Responders

    They are still much better than GovX. I waited 4 months for 3 pairs of Darn Tough socks that were in stock! I've only had 1-2 orders that took more than 2 weeks with Expertvoice over the past 6-7 years and that was an issue with the company I ordered from, not Expertvoice. I haven't signed up...

    Hiding cameras

    If they're cutting down the trees and taking the wood then I'll assume they are in a vehicle. I would be hiding some cattle trops or stop sticks along their routes of access. Spray paint them brown and green, or dig a shallow trench that you cover with leaf litter. Mark the road in a way that...

    Shotgun?

    I got a 12ga Mossberg 500 for my 13th birthday. Almost 3 decades later, it's the only shotgun I own. I've taken rabbits, squirrels, turkey, dove, and waterfowl every year with it. I've picked up a few other shotguns over the years but always had some issue with them. I'm a lefty so the tang...

    Anybody use SecureIt gun safes?

    I keep 6 up front, a regular AR with optics, a scoped Ruger 10/22, a CVA muzzleloader with scope, and Competition AR-15 with 20in barrel all in the back.

    Anybody use SecureIt gun safes?

    I bought an Agile 52 several years ago after they first came out. They used to offer 30% for military/LEO with free shipping so I figured why not. It was going upstairs so it was really nice to carry and assemble. Overall, I'm really happy with it. It's not for storing valuables or documents...
