  • David Draper shouldn’t get a. Microphone

    David was completely unqualified to speak about predator management and listening to him try to BS his way through the episode was a chore. Additionally a wolf isn’t killing 60 caribou a year, that’s more than one a week.

    “Locals say” “credible people” give me a break. Have an expert on or don’t have the episode.

  • More controversial content please

    Thank you for the recent episode on match bullets for hunting, as a avid hunter and reloader who sells firearms for a living I appreciate these topics on educating the public. With all the social media feeding new/old hunters on the “best” practices for taking big game I’d love to hear more topics on small calibers for big game, long range hunting and the reality of these methods.

    My favorite cartridge in the 308 family is the 243. I have 6 sub-moa loads with one rifle. 55gr Sierra BK’s, 70gr Varmageddon, 90gr eldx, and 100gr interlock, Sierra GK and partition. It seems anything that I feed it groups well and it’s a pleasure to shoot!

    Enjoyed the podcast as I have made my foray into Shooting and reloading. I also shoot the 6.5 creedmoor which was good for a 500 yard heart shot on an antelope with a 129 grain hunting performance SST bullet. Just under two mils hold and the BC calculators was spot on.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Ep. 259 - Daytime Raccoon Calling | Tips & Tactics with Geoff Nemnich
Q: So you go with one where distress, and then maybe follow that up in a fight, or vice versa.
Nemnich says either order works. He recommends playing one raccoon sound for about a minute and a half, switching to another, and repeating if needed.
Ep. 259 - Daytime Raccoon Calling | Tips & Tactics with Geoff Nemnich
Q: So, establish how you do it, and then we're going to rewind and kind of walk through coyote, or excuse me, raccoon hunting as a whole, and where we stand today, and why it's so important.
Nemnich says raccoons can be called with social sounds such as pup distress and fight sounds. The challenge is locating where they sleep during the day, then setting up close and calling them in.
Ep. 253 - Make Reloading Great Again | Does Primer Seating Depth and Type of Primer Matter? |
Q: How do you approach primer seating depth in practice?
They test systematically with a VersaPrime and measure velocity, SD, ES, and mean radius across multiple depths, acknowledging that results are cartridge- and condition-specific but showing a potential trend toward shallower seating improving SD in some cases.
Ep. 251 - VEXIS | The Future of Biometric Security
Q: How easy is it to program and use the Vexis system on the Night Guard?
Programming a hand is quick, typically 10-15 seconds, and the system supports multiple users with 360-degree recognition and simple voice prompts for setup.
Ep. 251 - VEXIS | The Future of Biometric Security
Q: How private and secure is the data stored on the safe?
All vein pattern data is encrypted and stored inside the safe with no wireless connectivity, ensuring the biometric data cannot be harvested remotely or used to compromise other systems.
