I have a gun. I actually have a few, but one sticks out as unique, as the most powerful, as the most... ...visceral. I am talking, of course, about my 460 XVR from Smith & Wesson, chambered in .460 S&W Magnum. *dog for scale This gun is heavy, loud, expensive, and hard to handle (insert … Continue reading Project: Epicyon

Life Update: 6 Months In
I figured I'd give my readers a little update on my life. This is supposed to be a lifestyle blog of a young gun enthusiast, but I haven't really done much blogging about my life. I don't plan on doing this sort of thing very often, or ever again, but right now it feels like … Continue reading Life Update: 6 Months In
The New 300 HAM’R From Wilson Combat!
Holy smokes, what new hotness has ol' Bill Wilson unleashed on us this time? Huh. Kinda looks like a .300BLK. There's probably some sort of ballistic special-sauce that isn't obvious. Let's look a little closer... That's just re... -dundant. What does this do that the .300BLK doesn't? Uhh... add like 100 fps to a supersonic … Continue reading The New 300 HAM’R From Wilson Combat!

Practical Rifle Competition, August 2018
There is a defensive rifle competition each month only a few hours' drive from me, at Oil Capital Rod & Gun Club. This make the second time I've attended, the previous time being June 2017. It's not a complicated affair, and I'd actually say it's a good candidate for a person's first match. The stages … Continue reading Practical Rifle Competition, August 2018
Range Day and Testing the New Carry Piece
I finally made it to the range this week. This is the first time I've been for the sole purpose of practice in... let's just say a while. First thing I did was the Press Check "No Fail Shot", as it is designed to be shot cold. From 25 yards, draw and fire 1 shot … Continue reading Range Day and Testing the New Carry Piece
Coffee Review: Bones Coffee Flavors
First off, I bought this coffee with my own money, I am not being compensated for my time. The prep products I feature are ones that I also purchased. Methods: I tried the coffee two ways, normally brewed and cold brewed. I purchased the coffee whole bean, not ground. Here's how I prepared it: I … Continue reading Coffee Review: Bones Coffee Flavors

Bullet Construction
Last time, we discussed what kinetic energy is, what momentum is, and what knockdown power isn't (hint: it's not real), but not how that information applies to our lives. I hope to clear that up a little more in this article, by discussing the goals of bullet construction. Once you understand what a bullet is … Continue reading Bullet Construction
Don’t Buy Cheap Holsters
I guess this is technically an extension of my "What Gun Should I Buy" series, though this isn't actually about a gun. That doesn't mean that holster selection is any less important. In fact, there is a good argument to be made that holster selection is more important than gun selection. For reference, read this story. … Continue reading Don’t Buy Cheap Holsters
