    If you could only have 1 rimfire rifle

    I’m a CZ 452 fanboy, owning multiple platforms in multiple calibers. A CZ452 chambered in 17HM2 has long been my favorite combo as I’ve commented here before. Over the past year though, I found the Steyr Zephyr IIs and have to say they are quickly competing with the 452s as my favorite...

    Hydration Drinks

    Liquid IV or an electrolyte tablet like Hammer Endurolytes. I don’t like Liquid IV while being active (running), but like it at the end of the day, if working outside, etc. I prefer the tablets when being very active.

    Gels when running

    Personally - I use Hammer products. Gels, Endurolytes, Perpetuem, and Recoverite. I ran through highschool, college, and now run ultra marathons competitively. I would agree that speed and distance have their places. We’ve done months on end of high intensity interval / fartlek / tempo based...

    Beretta A400 Xtreme Plus vs. Benelli Super Black Eagle III

    I went SBE3. I was concerned with the POI issue that is discussed all over the net with the SBE3, but when holding it and the A400 Xtreme I mounted and swung the Benelli much better. The A400 is significantly larger than the Benelli and I wasn’t the most comfortable behind it. I saw some...

    Which chronograph should I buy?

    I bought the LabRadar for use with the variety of options that we need: rifles, handguns, archery, etc. I’ve had to buy a few extras over time, and likely could use a couple more (recoil trigger could be real nice to have), but I think it is well worth every penny. I also bought an Apache case...

    How Much PTO Do You Have?

    I get 160hrs of vacation, but we work a 9/80 schedule (80 hours over 9 days). That means we get every other Friday off, which is definitely a nice. Some other folks get 240, but have significantly more time with the company.

    If you could only have 1 rimfire rifle

    Fair enough and I figured as such! Just didn’t know if there were specifics. I hunt with a few gentleman that prefer varmint style / weight deer rifles and they tend to say the same thing - they just feel better to them.

    Nipple rash

    When I first started running ultramarathons, I was using Body Glide. I found that in heat, it starts to really run - to the point of dripping down your legs or your chest. I jumped to Squirrel Nut Butter, but had issues with it in cold weather races (solidifying and hard to apply). I have...

    If you could only have 1 rimfire rifle

    I own three 452s in 17HM2, one standard American, one maple American, and one Varmint (and I am also in the works of having a 452 FS currently in 22LR relined with a 17HM2 liner). I tend to prefer the American’s for woods carrying and small game hunting, while the Varmint gets the nod for ground...

    If you could only have 1 rimfire rifle

    I’m also on the CZ 452 train. I’d take the 17HM2 of the cartridges offered! I absolutely love the cartridge. It has been my go-to squirrel cartridge, in the 452 platform, for nearly 10 years.
