  1. Winchester "Silvertips" were originally developed specifically for werewolf hunting. They were so effective that werewolves are nearly extinct. Winchester kept the Silvertip in the lineup because they are effective on other game also (who knew?) and, y'know...just in case.

  2. I'm from the USA. A couple of months ago, eggs in the USA were quite expensive. The claim was they were "$10/dozen". I never saw that where I live (Florida), though they did get to about $6/dozen here. They have returned to normal prices. We bought 3 dozen to make deviled eggs for our family Easter dinner last week. I didn't even pay attention to the price. It was under $2/dozen. Winter egg prices are always higher due to reduced production, though this year they were higher than normal. We never gave up eggs in our household. By the time of Easter (last Sunday) egg prices were back to normal. I don't hear any complaints about egg prices now. As usual, Russia is full of sh*t.

  6. One thing about the Model 1886 action (which is what the Big Horn rifle is based on) is that you need to work it like you mean it. Especially with straight case cartridges.

  10. The ONLY importance of Bakhmut is that the enemy was willing to feed their resources inot it like a black hole. When your enemy is being stupid...help them! As long as Russia keeps going after Bakhmut and as long as they lose soldiers and equipment 8 to 10:1, Ukraine is wise to continue allowing them to be stupid. Russia will WISH they had those troops and equipment back in a few weeks.

  11. I hope your stream tonight will show the clip of the drone dropping grenades on Russian troops attempting to flee the drone in a car. The drone had dropped a grenade near three Russian soldiers walking on a road/driveway in a village, they ran toward a car to escape. One of the troops appeared wounded, he was limping and stopped to look at his leg. After fighting with each other like the "Three Stooges" to get into the car, the drone dropped another grenade, this one landing exactly on the car's sunroof! At the explosion the doors popped open, but no one came out. The car was circling backwards out of control, until it hit a concrete fence/wall. Then the badly wounded Russian soldiers crawl out. It appears at least two are still alive but may not be for long.

  12. I voted for Trump. I also just went on vacation to Mexico after the election. I was welcomed there (or at least my 💲were). Then I went home. See how that works? BTW 'native Americans' are neither native, nor American, but they ARE an excellent example of what happens to a society that doesn't enforce immigration laws.

  13. The makers of the Bayraktar approve of this song. 🤣

  14. Thank you. Can anyone explain WHY the Russians are so determined to capture Bakhmut? I fail to see the overall strategic value. It would have made sense before the Ukrainians reclaimed most of Kharkiv Oblast...but IF they get Bakhmut, then what?

  15. I grew up in Runnels Co., TX on our family's ranch. We frequently saw rattlesnakes, scorpions, tarantulas and black widow spiders. I never was particularly concerned about any of those. We saw those centipedes quite often also and they are creepy. I stayed far away from those things. I know of several people who were bitten and went to the hospital...where they were basically sedated or given pain killers. I never heard of anyone dying from it. I can tell you that many people I know had the same reaction. Show them a big diamondback rattlesnake and "Meh...so what? Just leave them alone, go around them" But show them one of these creepers and they scream like little girls. 🤷‍♂ It is possible you received very little venom. The centipede had just dropped some venom in your collection cup. I doubt they carry too much venom. In any case, one persons reaction to one bite is probably not something to draw conclusions on, but to put into the matrix of possibilities.

  20. I'd really like to see Ruger/Marlin produce a lever rifle in these two cartridges. Something a little smaller in size than a 336/1895. Maybe Henry could do it. These would give .45-70+ ballistics in a smaller, handier carbine. Try shooting a big can of tomato soup! Stand back! 😁

  25. A very common characteristic of FMJ large bore bullets is that they often veer off course. Some bullet makers have gone to great lengths to prevent that. Bullets such as A-Square's monolithic solid are designed to stay on course. Fun video. Glad to see you can shoot big bores again.

  27. I have a Winchester Model 70 Safari Express .375 H&H. Great rifle! I also have a BRNO O/U double rifle I bought in Czech Republic about 16 years ago. It is chambered in 9.3x74R. I got a super deal on it, the dealer in CZ Republic handled the import process, and even after the import fees and taxes, I walked out the door of my local dealer with the rifle for under $1000. I think they are both great rifles. The 9.3x74 is not as powerful as it looks, but is still suitable for anything in North America and most game in Africa. The CZ 550 is probably the best, current production, bolt rifle in big bore calibers. Were I in the market for another, I would definitely go with the CZ. I haven't had any trouble with rhinos or cape buffaloes in our garden since I have owned them. Another cartridge that was popular for dangerous game in Africa was the 9.3x62 which is little more than the cartridge we call the .35 Whelen. Many African professional hunters killed a lot of elephants with the .303 British and the .275 Rigby (AKA 7x75 Mauser).

  28. My father, a veteran of WW2 brought home many guns. 8 P-38s, 2 Lugers and an absolutely gorgeous Czech made 16 ga. double barrel shotgun. An "Opava Ferdinand". It is "best quality" in every sense of the word. Not to mention knives, bayonets, etc. Pistols, rifles and shotguns were no problem to send home or bring back. Officially, a soldier had to get his commanding officer's signature to send it home, or bring it home. More often, they were just packed in boxes and mailed back, free of charge. US soldiers enjoyed FREE postal service. The story on the shotgun was that my father's tank platoon was advancing through a German village. He was a platoon Technical Sargent/tank commander and was in the 4th tank of the column. A German woman stood by the side of the road, holding a "suitcase looking thing" and waving at the passing tanks. The tanks just passed by, ignoring the woman. My father ordered his tank to stop and he spoke to the woman and managed to understand that she wanted to "surrender her father's gun", so she would not be considered an enemy. My father took the case and opened the fitted, leather covered case to see the beautiful shotgun! "Well, hello!" He gladly took the surrender and told the woman to go in peace. 😜 FYI, Mark...The US required registration of machine guns beginning in 1934. It was, and still is, legal to own them, but you had to register them with the government and if you sold the gun there was, and still is, a $200 "transfer tax". It was illegal to "bring back" an automatic rifle or submachine gun during WW2. However...as you state...it was done. By the tens of thousands, if not hundreds of thousands. Recognizing this, the US government implemented an "amnesty" in 1968 and allowed anyone with a "bring back" automatic weapon to legally register them without any fees or taxes. Any "bring back" after that date, not registered with the federal government, is an illegally owned machinegun. And another aside...my father joined the army in 1934 in the fledgling "tank corps". He was issued a 1918 manufactured Model 1911 pistol. The 1911A1 was, by that time, "standard" but they were still handing out WW1 1911s, particularly to NCOs in the tank corps, transport services, etc. He kept that gun throughout his career. He retired in 1956 and turned in his 1911. The Army told him it was now classified as "obsolete" and that he could buy it if he chose. For $17. He bought his cherished friend without hesitation. I have it in my collection now, with the documents of the purchase and the holster he carried it in for more than 20 years. The US government still sells obsolete, fully functional military rifles and handguns to the public. Currently you can buy M1 rifles and M1911/M1911A1 handguns. I believe all the M1 carbines have been sold off.

  29. Because of the relatively slow rate of fire of the automatic BAR, the semi-auto can just about equal the rate of fire of the auto model, though with more exercise for your finger. The local raccoons and skunks are just going to love that rifle! And NO, you cannot borrow my truck!

  31. I collect Winchesters so a few years ago, maybe 20 years ago, I came across a great deal on a Winchester Model 70 Safari Express in .375 H&H. I have to say that it is very effective against large game, since I bought that rifle, we have had -0- problems with elephants, rhinos or cape buffalo trampling my wife's garden! The .458 Lott is just a little smaller than my .45-110 Sharps Straight. 😋 Serious speaking...you can handload it to match anything from the .45-70 on up. Just for fun. And they work great with cast bullets! I have a concrete block home...remind me not to use a rifle like this for home defense.

  41. Great, classic cartridge. Developed to replace the .450 NE when many British colonies banned the ownership of .45 caliber rifles. The natives could pull bullets from the cases and use them to handload ammo for stolen or captured .450/577 Martini-Henry Rifles. Sounds like a lot of trouble to me, but that was the reason. The .458 Win Mag was developed to duplicate the ballistics of the .450 and .470 NE in a smaller case suitable for "standard" length bolt action rifles. It succeeded in this but at the cost of much higher operating pressure. This worked fine in bolt action "magazine rifles" but the belted case and high pressure often caused difficult extraction/ejection in double rifles. Bolt action rifles were much cheaper to make and buy and eventually the double rifles fell out of favor. Thanks, Scott! Happy New year! Really glad you are here.

  42. Earlier today, I watched one of your videos from a few years ago, comparing the .45-70 and .500 S&W Magnum. Very informative, but your style now is much more fun. My thoughts on this gun...pretty cool, BUT a gun with three barrels, interchangeable chokes and no way to select barrels is pretty useless. The point of having two (or more) different chokes is to be able to immediately select different chokes for different situations. Incoming targets, outgoing targets, targets at close range or longer range. If you can't choose which barrel to fire first, (and second or third) they may as well all be the same. You've lost the advantage for hunting and greatly increased manufacturing costs. May as well have a cheaper semi-auto or pump with a single barrel. As a defense gun? Three shot capacity AND you have to disable the gun to reload. Having to claw the empties out under stress, rather than having auto ejectors, pretty much ruins it for defense (on top of a 3 shot capacity) Basically this demonstrates why police and military haven't used break action shotguns since the late 1800s. But it DOES look like fun and it is definitely unusual. Thanks, Scott. 👍

  43. The defenders of Mariupol and Azovstal will be considered as the heroes of "The Alamo" are. One could say they didn't "win" their battle, but their defense and delay served the greater purpose that will lead to victory. Hopefully, they will return to Ukraine and their families soon. Every war has it's tragic heroes. The Alamo, the Bataan Death March, the British soldiers who were sacrificed to make the miracle of Dunkerque possible, Azovstal... they are all heroes. Slava Ukraini!!!!!!!!!! 🟦🟨

  44. The .350 Legend is a .35 caliber projectile. NOT a .30 caliber projectile. The .350 legend is rated just slightly above the 112 year old .351 WSL (also a straight wall cartridge) with a 180gr. bullet. (about 100 fps.) The action of the Winchester model 1907 semi-auto, which is a blowback action, did not allow the range of bullet weights or velocities that the gas operated AR-15 does and the propellants in 1907 were no match for what we have today. This is not a reflection on the cartridge, but on the rifle platform it was designed for. In other words...Winchester resuscitated a 112 year old cartridge and added a couple bullet weights to the offerings. Ho-hum. I have an original Model 1907. And a good stock of cases and 180 gr. bullets. If I feel the need to hunt deer in an area that restricts you straight wall cartridges in rifle, I'll use that.

  47. 3:13 Burlington is NOT the state capital. 🙄Montpelier is. Burlington is the largest city, (40,000 or so not counting college students) and there aren't many good jobs there either. Unless you work for one of the universities or the hospital, there isn't much else. There are quite a few Government offices in Vermont, thanks to the influence of Senator Leahy. USCIS, ICE and others have large facilities there. Those are good jobs, but not very many. Retail, sandwich shops, dairy farms, starving artists and seasonal jobs at ski resorts make up the rest. A huge percentage of people are on unemployment/welfare at least part of the year. Particularly construction workers. The "factories" in Vermont are not high paying jobs...Ben & Jerry's, Vermont Teddy Bear, Green Mountain Coffee, Cabot Cheese, Champlain Chocolate. Little better than retail work. Burton snowboards moved all their manufacturing to China. The Burlington headquarters is a bunch of hippies designing snowboards. Maple syrup? Yeah, almost all of it in Vermont is produced by small private farms. It's not a big employment factor and the "sugaring season" is only a few weeks in February/March. Vermont actively runs off any good employers or industry with environmental restrictions and taxes which rival California. Beautiful state. Absolutely gorgeous. Difficult life, brutally cold, long and snowy winters. If you're retired and can afford two homes, Vermont should be at the top of your list for your summer home. If you like skiing...really great place. Unfortunately, Vermont has made college graduates it's most valuable export.

  51. Thanks Scott! Easy way to tell if a double gun (SxS or O/U) has ejectors is to look at the extractors. If the extractor is a one piece part, it is not an ejector gun. If the gun has ejectors the extractors will be split, one separate for each barrel. Interesting the slow-mo shows both barrels did not fire simultaneously. Not surprised it is actually difficult to pull both triggers at exactly the same time. FYI, when the 10 gauge was established as the largest shotgun gauge legal for hunting migratory birds in the early 1900s, the "standard" load was a 2-5/8" shell loaded with 1-1/4 oz. of lead shot. Modern propellants and wad systems allow even a 20 ga. to equal those ballistics (with 3" shells), 16 ga. shells can do it with a 2-3/4" length, and 12 ga., with the newer 3.5" length, almost equal the 10 ga.

  53. Nice rifle. And it is left handed, to boot. I always lusted after a double rifle in dangerous game chambering. The closet I came is a BRNO O/U double rifle in 9.3x74R. I love that rifle also. Thanks for a great video! That ammo is almost as expensive as 9mm FMJ! That WAS the most vaporized watermelon I have ever seen! Demolition Ranch already has posted a video saying you faked shooting both barrels at once. Scott, no fooling, if you want to have a lot of fun with that thing, get yourself a bullet mold, cast some bullets from wheel weights and have fun with reduced loads.

  55. So...OK, I'll be "that guy" The Ruger Super Redhawk Alaskan is available with a 2.5" barrel, .454 Casull or .480 Ruger and is quite a bit smaller (and cheaper) than this handgun. What are the actual ballistics of the .45-70 in that handgun? I am going to go out on a limb and say it may well be outperformed by the .454 or .480 in a shorter barrel, smaller package. Just sayin'.

  59. All the local raccoons, opossums and skunks are waiting in the bushes, having heard the dinner bells. What they really need is a "meat target" just to round out the menu. The .460 is my favorite. I would LOVE to see Ruger chamber it in a Marlin lever rifle when they get the brand up and running again. A Model 336 in .460 Magnum (or .500 Magnum) would be AWESOME.

  61. Should have used a backwards loaded .38/357 148 gr. Hollow Base Wadcutter. I used to load those in the 60s and 70s and was quite self-assured I had the most deadly possible ammunition. Years later, Federal comes out with a 130 gr. HST round for the .38 Special that is essentially the same thing!

  68. 1911s are for .45 ACP. 😎 I have 2 Kimber 1911s in .45 ACP (one from 2001 and one from 2017) they work perfectly, BUT on each of them I mirror polished the feed ramps and polished the extractor hooks and use ONLY Wilson Combat magazines (I have 3 Colt 1911s and use only Wilson mags in those also) If Wilson has a mag for the 1911 10mm, give it a try. Polish the feed ramp and extractor hook (OR replace with a Wilson Combat extractor)

When all is said & done, it is an overpriced, overweight pistol caliber carbine that delivers the same performance as a Hi Point carbine but at 6 times the cost and twice the weight. For half the price and weight, you can get a Marlin Camp Carbine .45 Yeah, it's cool looking.

  85. The intro...You should charge money for that kind of training! Not really a high pressure cartridge. It's listed pressure is not higher than 10 gauge loads. (11,000-12,000 psi) The .700 nitro case is slightly undersize for the 10 gauge, so should result in even lower pressures, case length is the same. The .700 Nitro is basically a tapered 10 ga. brass shotshell. The bullet is .075" undersize, so pressures will be very low. Velocity will suffer also. No damage to the gun will result Edit: as suspected.
