    Discussion: Winchester Deer Season XP: Best Long-Range Hunting Round?

    Thanks for sharing. It's time to get in the woods and get those deer camps ready!! (PS I am intrigued at the 2020 rifles .... and I have been hankering for a new, short 308, so that might scratch the itch)

    My Cousin Vinny

    It’s a good movie. I also like A Few Good Men and A Civil Action. Both are also very realistic for courtroom scenes.

    Hurricane Isaias

    All good. Just a lot of small limbs and leaves down. Only on generator for maybe an hour. Guys east of me in Florida look like they took a lick.

    Do hammers really beat strikers?

    You’d think that with all the torture testing strikers were subjected to during development someone would have come up with this sort of freeze-thaw-freeze-thaw cycle test. But, IDK.

    Ex-Okaloosa deputy - not guilty of manslaughter of Airman

    I don’t know the facts, but according to multiple sources the deputy answered a domestic call at the apartment complex and the airman’s apartment was the wrong apartment. I’ll say that you don’t have to answer your door, and you have every right to carry a gun around in your abode. I don’t...

    More magazine capacity

    True. And sometimes good judgment is the better part of defensive training, or as sometimes it’s said, discretion is the better part of valor. Choose different surroundings, walk away, don’t escalate the situation, stay away from questionable locations … these are tactics as well.

    After all is said and done, don't discount the smallbore pistol.

    Every aspect of personal safety-defense is some sort of a compromise on some level.

    Do hammers really beat strikers?

    I post the following link as food for thought. Strikers can malfunction in cold weather. Might make you think about a striker as your choice in a cold environment. https://www.alaskasnewssource.com/2026/03/12/that-was-my-last-resort-iditarod-rookie-recounts-frantic-bison-encounter-trail/

    excellent article by Karen Hunter on staying in control.

    It’s like any other habit (skill?) in that it is perishable if not exercised.

    Firing through glass - the considerations of bullet deflection

    The odds of me ever being in a gunfight are negligible. That said, I have carried some form of FP in my autos since I was old enough to get my first pistol permit back in the mid-eighties. During the BLM riots over the past few years, I could see bad guys using cars and other unconventional...

    excellent article by Karen Hunter on staying in control.

    Great stuff. Thanks for sharing. The most important self defense tool is the six inches between your ears, and self defense starts well before you decide on your armament.

    Do hammers really beat strikers?

    Prefer hammer, but am (almost) equally at home with striker. I do always try to match the tool to the environment/AO as much as possible. I’m more likely to be in the boonies when I need to use my firearm than in civilization. That makes a difference, I believe.

    Can You Shoot Someone Who Has No Weapon In Self-Defense?

    Yes. Also, as in, "reasonable doubt."
