The Shooters Global SG Pulse Pro is an impressive all-in-one gadget, offering you a timer, DOPE (data on previous engagements) cards, a level and a stability tracker in one aluminum, water-resistant body with multiple mounting options. The LCD display indicates actual numbers, but bright LED lights quickly indicate whether you’re on target or angled too far in one axis or another—significantly simplifying shot assessment. It’s highly customizable for audio alerts, cant tolerance and LED brightness. Switch between DOPE cards for stages, including wind speed and direction, plus target distance, elevation, etc. The app also lets you learn from each shot…

The flood gates opened on Jan. 1, 2026, when the cost of an NFA stamp to take ownership of a suppressor dropped to $0. The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (BATFE) reported that in the first three weeks of 2026, 178,000 Form-4s had been submitted for the hearing-healthy devices. 4473 Cloud—a company that provides services that include cloud storage of BATFE forms FFLs are required to complete and store—notes that number includes enthusiasts who purchased one in the last half of the year but waited until Jan. 1 to submit. According to the company’s conservative estimate, which is…

(Continued from Part 3.) Mineralize the Soil Many of our soils are depleted of trace elements and micronutrients from past agricultural use. If your land was ever farmed, it’s probably got some deficiencies. While a soil test is probably a good idea so you can see the bigger picture of certain elements you might need to add, you can also address the deficiencies with broad spectrum amendments. Because they are in mineral form they don’t tend to leach from the soil, so they are available for the soil life to break them down and transport to your plants when they…

  On March 22, 1941 the Grand Coulee Dam in Washington went into operation. — Benjamin Tyler Henry (March 22, 1821–December 29, 1898) was an American gunsmith and manufacturer. On October 16, 1860, he received a patent on the Henry .44 caliber repeating rifle. The first rimfire Henry rifles were not produced for Union Army use until mid-1862. — This is the birthday of Louis L’Amour. (Born 1908, died 1988.) Some of his novels have survival themes. One of particular interest to survivalists is Last of the Breed. — SurvivalBlog Writing Contest Today we present another entry for Round 123…

The Strike Eagle has been a cornerstone of Vortex’s affordable line of low-power variable optics (LPVO) for modern sporting rifles. Previously offered in 1-6X and 1-8X variants, new for 2026, Vortex is introducing the Strike Eagle 1-10X 24 mm FFP riflescope.     The new Strike Eagle 1-10X is an update of Vortex’s classic affordable LPVO. LPVO scopes give the user the ability to quickly switch from close to long-range targets. The Strike Eagle goes from a 1X magnification, for use like a red dot, to 10X and has a removable throw lever for quick changes and fast-focus eyepiece. It uses…

Nearly 90 years ago, the Battle of Shanghai introduced the world to the horrifying brutality of modern urban combat. Prior to the hellscape of Stalingrad, the fighting in Shanghai showcased man’s inhumanity to man on a grand scale within China’s largest and most modern city, years before World War II. By the time the Battle of Shanghai was over, nearly 200,000 Chinese were killed or wounded, along with almost 50,000 Japanese. Most modern weapons were used in the battle, including poison gas, deployed by the Japanese 13 times by their own admission. The Second Sino-Japanese War began with the Japanese…

(Continued from Part 2.) The microbes in the soil are master mineral miners using various acids, such as carbonic acid, to break down minerals into soluble forms that are bioavailable to the plants. The plants in turn exude sugars to feed and power the microbes during the mining operation. If you live east of the Mississippi or in commercial agricultural areas where we’ve been unsustainably exploiting the soil nutrients for decades or even centuries, there is a pretty good chance your soil is deficient in micronutrients, especially anion molecules like boron, sulfur, and molybdenum that tend to leach from the…

March 21, 717: The Battle of Vincy. This was a pivotal engagement in the Frankish civil wars of 715–718. The battle was fought near Cambrai (modern Les Rues-des-Vignes) between Austrasian forces led by Charles Martel, mayor of the palace, and the Neustrian army under King Chilperic II and Mayor Ragenfrid. Martel’s forces routed the Neustrians, pursuing the defeated king and his ally to Paris, which crippled Neustrian opposition and enabled Austrasia to reassert dominance over the divided Frankish realms. This victory underscored the declining authority of Merovingian kings amid rising mayoral power, paving the way for Martel’s consolidation of northern Francia…

My brother and I have virtually identical, heavy-barreled Remington 700 varmint rifles chambered in .22-250 Rem. He cleans his rifle every time he shoots it, even if it is only one shot. His contention is that a perfectly clean barrel will shoot more accurately for a longer number of rounds than a fouled barrel will. It is infrequent for him to shoot more than 10 rounds before he is scrubbing out the bore to prevent copper and carbon from building up. I keep my ammunition in 100-round boxes, and when I have shot all 100 rounds, I clean the barrel…
