I’ve  viewed .300 AAC Blackout as an excellent round since its inception.  I’ve also acknowledged that it isn’t a magic “wonder round” that can do it all.  It is another good tool to have in the tool box and excels at its intended function.  As with any new offering, it has taken some time to […]

I’ve always been a proponent of having a blade on you ALL the time. I have the privilege of testing many different knives and have done so over the past few years. One thing that can be time consuming and costly is finding that ‘perfect’ blade to carry with you everyday. Today we are going […]
