you'll always lose a bit of the lead's weight to oxidation, as it melts and also, even as the bullets/ingots sit around. The latter loss is of course very slow and a coating of bullet lube virtuallly...

you dont have to own land to have a spiderhole or buried drums there. After ****, there will be ZERO way to prove that a guy is the legit owner, or just that guy's recent killer. So dont waste your...

within a year of ****, 99% of the population is going to be DEAD, so there will be no shortage of shelter by then. UNTIL then, all above ground or "findable" underground structures will be searched,...

doesn't matter what people can do, the dog packs and cats will lead the people to where the game and lifestock are, chase them until people shoot them, then run down the wounded critters. There's 300...

100 x 6 ft of 2" mesh gillnet (minus the lead weights) and some muletape tree straps= a hammock that can feed you very handily. For a medical kit, give me "go" and "no-go" pills, antibiotics,...

I dont trust small, vital, easily lost stuff to be outside of my pack(s) I use a daypack that's big enough to hold the taken down rifle, sitting on a buttpack, so I dont need more of a frame than a...

it has an absorbent side and a waterproof side, so it's capable of shedding rain. It's a bit fragile, so , after you use masking tape to make a 3x8 ft bag out of it, you have to tent it over a...

NOBODY, anywhere, knows who all is living within 30 miles of them, and that's ONE day's walk. If they have bicycles, 1 day can be 200 miles, on pavement, no problem at all. All 3200 miles of the US...

why bother? telephone yellowpages, newspapers, a smooth, round rock, or rag, a bit of soap. TP degrades, sitting in its plastic wrapper. It's not worth bothering-with. Get useful stuff instead, like...

over 90% of the population cannot bug in. The towns and cities will burn, have no water and 90+% are urban. They will be forced out into the rural areas, which means that the farmers and ranchers...

it will load maybe 5000 rds a year of 223, at most. That's half of what the other one loads for the 9mm. I used to shoot twice that much .45, decades ago, but have found that I dont need to do so,...

I can't stand to watch it, actually. I just look at blurbs on YT. Some of them go with almost a 100 lb disadvantage in bodyweight. The only way possible to make up that difference is to eat 150,000...

I am hesitating because I know that loading rifle ammo is different than pistol ammo. Thanks to all.

there wont be any game left after a couple of months, and if you have to fire 200 rds at people, you'll be doing so much wrong that only luck can save you, much less 2000 rds. If you "think" you want...
