    Best Bipods

    @Go West Old Man Thanks, it's a nice place to play with the toys for sure. The stock is a factory Tikka Supervarmint on a T3X Lite; it has the exact same riser as the T3X Adjustable, but the rest of the stock is done in a grippy green finish, plus it has a few extra threaded holes on the forend...

    How much caffeine per day for you?

    This episode, right? https://hubermanlab.com/using-caffeine-to-optimize-mental-and-physical-performance/ Yeah — when my morning routine changed after switching jobs I noticed the difference immediately although I wasn't exactly sure what the cause was. I came across the podcast a bit later...

    Coffee solutions camping/backpacking?

    For sure. It's my favourite brew method overall, and tends to more consistent than any other single-cup method — e.g. manual pourover, French press, vac pot... The extra body from Aeropress extraction also suits most beans pretty nicely.

    How much caffeine per day for you?

    I switched from a habit of having my first coffee right after waking up to delaying caffeine intake by one-and-a-half to two hours; man, what a difference! The idea is that it gives the body time to clear out as much adenosine (the thing that makes you feel tired) as possible at the start of...

    Coffee solutions camping/backpacking?

    For travelling and in the field, I find that the combination of an Aeropress and MbK's Aergrind or Aerspeed manual grinder, which fits inside, is pretty unbeatable. These give excellent grind quality while running quick and smooth; it's a whole different world compared to the slow wobbly...

    EDC Knife Choice - Want Edge retention and sharpness

    There's not even a need to qualify it by saying "for the money"; it's just a great knife, period. :) The GB1 is a heck of a knife in my opinion. That plus the GB2 and Bombshell have completely changed my opinion on liner locks; a high-quality example is pretty much unbeatable in actual use...

    SPUHR tikka mounts

    I just replaced Sportsmatch HTO73s with the Spuhr hunting model. The fit is perfect with a 56 mm scope, and despite the super-solid one-piece construction, it’s only 28 grams heavier. Simply an awesome mount.

    Short quotes that speak volumes.

    Oh cool, is it “fascist fairy tales” time again already? 🤔

    Short quotes that speak volumes.

    You know what would be truly foolish? Believing that where French politicians took their seats in the National Assembly during the 1700s has any relevance whatsoever to a thing some guy wrote roughly twenty-three-hundred years ago. 😁

    Cartridge for new hunter

    True, but it’s also hard to find ammo for a 6 mm Remington.

    My girl, who just turned ten and is still as spry as ever.

    Colorado Wolf Introduction is getting REAL political

    Yes — while lots more dogs go missing everywhere, and can often be traced to their tracks intersecting with the motor vehicles out on the roadways. Drivers and dogs don’t mix well, either.

    Colorado Wolf Introduction is getting REAL political

    Wait, I thought you people were pro-meat-eating… 🤔

    Jeep Gladiator, does it suck?

    I would not recommend having a Jeep in most areas of Europe; the scarcity of parts and service alone would be a major drawback.

    EDC Knife Choice - Want Edge retention and sharpness

    @K1United Nice; looks good with the Micarta and deep-carry clip. I personally find the Para 3 really handy. It was my go-to for a recent ski week due to its compact size, grippiness, and glove-friendliness. Though I gotta say that this recently-arrived Gayle Bradley 2 has really knocked my...

    Respect to that wolf’s escape game. 😑

    Sad day for Canadian gun owners

    Arch-neoliberal Trudeau isn’t fit to tie his father’s shoelaces, though.

    Who makes a good assisted opening EDC knife?

    I was wondering the same. Assisted opening severely limits the options.

    Best hunting knife

    I prefer a convex blade in a hunting knife; this Bark River EXT-1 has been great so far.
