Best .308 AR? PWS MK216 Review and Torture Test!
In the spring of 2018, three years ago, I ordered my first PWS. The MK216 MOD 1-M chambered in .308 WIN. Funnily enough, I outlined the reasons for my purchase decision in my .233 PWS review published in May of 2019. I concluded that review with a promise to publish...

Iron Sights: Are they still relevant to you?
You have sights on your rifle, and you may not even know how to use them. Aperture sights (receiver, peep, ghost ring, tang, bullseye, whatever name you know them by) have been in use since the 1400s when some unknown marksman or armorer drilled a hole in a piece of...
You Need a Tripod, but Skip the Crappy Ones
Change my mind. If you're shooting 35 yards or never leave the square range, I get it. A tripod isn't for you. And there was a time before tripods found their way into my hunting and shooting. It was a happy time, carrying less gear into a field in the cover of...

I realize the greeting may be somewhat late, but my view is that anytime you go hog hunting it is still appropriate! In reality this story covers an event that happened the day after Thanksgiving anyway. Who wants to camp out to buy another flat screen TV when you can...

We've reviewed a couple of Global Vision's thermal products. And when I say "we," I mean Casey Jones. You can check out his reviews of the TM35-384 and the TM35-640. Don't get me wrong, a thermal monocular is a necessity for what we do. But, when the opportunity...
Colorado Pronghorn Hunt – aka, Buck Hunt with a Baby Bump
“Are you ready for this?” Wes, my hunting partner and husband, asked before we locked up the truck and crossed the ditch to begin my first Colorado pronghorn antelope hunt. As I donned my safety orange vest and hat, I thought back to all my shooting practice. I had...
