#10MinuteTalk - Match Ammo for Hunting? May 30, 2023

Show notes

“You should never use match ammo for hunting.” “Match ammo is fantastic for hunting.” The topic of match ammo for hunting may be one of the most polarizing.

Mark Boardman and Ryan Muckenhirn tackle this hornets’ nest of a subject, talking about the differences between “match” and “hunting” ammo, provide the theory they personally subscribe to, anecdotes of times they’ve used match ammo for hunting, and touch on regions of the world where using match ammo for hunting is more common than not.

Ep. 288 | 2A State of the Union with the Second Amendment Foundation May 29, 2023

Show notes

The Second Amendment is always under attack. For reference, the Second Amendment states: A well regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed. Well, there’s a heck of a lot of infringing going on! Good thing we have folks like Adam Kraut from the Second Amendment Foundation working hard to keep it intact. We talk about Adam’s career path, the 2A itself, the playbook of those looking to dismantle it piece by piece, updates on the current landscape of 2A-related infringements we are facing, how the Second Amendment Foundation goes about fighting the good fight and what you can do.
