#10MinuteTalk - Peep This - Aperture Sights on Firearms and Muzzleloaders Nov 21, 2023

Aperture sights, commonly referred to as peep sights, are a fun and extremely accurate way to shoot an open-sighted rifle or muzzleloader. But why? What rifles do they marry well with?

Ep. 314 | Hot Tent Camping – What You Need to Know Nov 20, 2023

Show notes

That hot tent camping is SOOO hot right now (mild Zoolander movie reference). And for good reason. The ability to stay warm and get dry is critical for late-season hunts – or any hunt where inclement weather is a possibility. It can be the difference between staying or going home. More critically, the difference between life and death. At the minimum, it’s a morale booster. If you’ve been thinking about going this route, there’s a fair amount to consider. Mark Boardman joins good friend and founder of Argali, Brad Brooks, to chat floorless shelters, hot tent camping, and Argali’s titanium stove.

#10MinuteTalk - Red Dots on Hunting Rifles? Nov 14, 2023

Show notes

Close quarters, fast shots, moving targets, dynamic situations, shooting with both eyes open and a high-level need for rapid target acquisition. Sound like a “tactical environment”? Could be, but it’s not. You’re on a driven hog hunt in Spain or Germany, calling red stags in France, or on stand during a good old fashioned Midwest deer drive. All the positive attributes a red dot offers translate perfectly to specific hunts — making them the best option in some cases. Be “ready” for fast action with a red dot.

Mark Boardman and Ryan Muckenhirn dive deep into their gel-shooting results to break down these cartridges and answer this very question. Was the original outcome the right one? Mark says no. Tune in to decide for yourself.
