00:00:00 Speaker 1: I don’t particularly enjoy reading the news these days. It’s always something sensational, always something bad. But what saves me when I get the good sense to put down my phone and take a step outside is wildness. Henry David Thurrow wrote that in wildness is the preservation of the world, and I think he’s right. But what exactly is wildness. It’s a tricky thing to pin down. What I can tell you is that I’ve seen it in the eyes of a mountain lion, lying on a branch twenty feet above my head, its tail swishing…
00:00:01 Speaker 1: Despite its role as the central region of the frontier story in the West, the Great Planes in the twenty first century is requiring novel conservation approaches to recapture its former magic. I’m Dan Flores, and this is the American West, loving the planes, hating the planes, rewilding the planes. 00:00:44 Speaker 2: I know almost nothing useful about W. H. 00:00:48 Speaker 1: Auden, the twentieth century British writer critic, except that he once wrote these lines, which I committed to memory. I cannot see a plane without a shutter.

The 4 Patriots 72-Hour Survival Food Kit is misnamed. In terms of caloric requirements and nutritional value, it does not quite qualify as a 48-hour food kit. In terms of packaging, it would be best suited as a 24-hour food kit. The food is packaged conveniently for things like camping trips. But it is important to realize that the number of servings listed on each package is hopelessly optimistic. Double each serving size, and it will be just about right. Also make sure to take other foods to supplement the packaged courses. At the time of this writing, the kit…

(Continued from Part 1. This concludes the article.) Considerations for Projectile Selection There are many different bullets and powders to choose from. Given the very long throats of their chambers, we are mostly limited to heavier and flat based bullets. Choosing the best projectiles for the antique Mausers will help us get the best all around results, quickly. For the purposes of hunting, I would like it to shoot no larger groups than 2 MOA with iron sights and that would limit my shoots to 250 yards if I had 20-20 or better vision and had the rifle on…
Handgun muzzle rise is a matter of simple physics. Factors like barrel length, cartridge size and handgun weight all contribute to how high a pistol’s muzzle kicks up when you fire it. Bore axis (how low the barrel sits in the frame) is also a big contributing factor to muzzle rise, and over the years, many designers have attempted to use a low-bore axis to result in a flat-shooting pistol. One of these attempts, the Rideout Arsenal Dragon, is now more than a concept. It’s on the market. The Rideout Arsenal Dragon is an innovative new design that incorporates an…

Last week, police were called to investigate a shotgun blast at a gas station convenience store in Scott’s Bluff, Nebraska. Thankfully it wasn’t a hold up gone wrong, but instead a sit stay, lie down gone wrong. It seems that the driver of a pickup truck had left a loaded shotgun in the passenger seat of the vehicle. The driver’s dog allegedly moved from one side of the truck to…
