    Heavy winter clothing and bullet performance

    Just wanted to present a recent test I did for my YouTube channel, as of posting this here the video has not yet aired on the channel so the only way to view it will be with the link below. I think the results may be a bit surprising as they were to me. I expected some change in performance but...

    30 Super Carry Full power handloads

    So wasn’t sure whether to put this in hand loading or here in autoloaders, chose here because I think this type of loading has the ability to become an underwood or buffalo bore type offering in the future. Seems like the factory loadings are a bit under powered. What do you all think?

    Deer Hunting, Heavy and slow or light and fast bullets?

    So not really talking about heavy for caliber or light for caliber in the same round, but more broad than that. Within say, 200 yards, would you rather have something along the lines of a 45-70 with a 400g bullet moving around 2,000 fps, or a 6.5 PRC with a 140g bullet going 2,900 fps? The...

    Appendix carry help

    So I’ve recently lost 70lbs or so and in doing so, 3-4 o’clock IWB doesn’t conceal at all for me now on narrower hips. I’ve been playing with appendix Carry, and it conceals much much better in that position, but dang does it suck sitting or bending over to pick something up off the floor. The...

    6.5 Grendel Vs 7.62x39

    Two very similar rounds, I am a big fan of both, but here is what I think is an interesting comparison of the two rounds. Of course this is representative of up close only, I think at distance the Grendel starts to have more advantage.

    380 vs 38 special

    Since this is something we often see discussed here, 5 rounds of 38 special vs 7-8 rounds of 380 in pocket size pistols, I figured I might share some of my content from my channel. This is a video I did a while back, its not just a plain ol gel block comparison but some fleshy media known to...

    44 magnum vs 10mm heavy bone hard cast test

    So since being on this forum for many years, a common thread is the bear defense thread and 10mm is always in the discussion, as well as many others. I did this video for my youtube channel, it has not posted there yet so until it does, this is the only link to view it. I know this isn't...

    Sites or sources to find local buy/sell/trade firearms

    So with FB trader pages long gone for some time, I turned to Mewe and armslist for local trades or purchases around me. Now Mewe has deleted a lot of the gun trader groups and armslist has implemented fees which pretty well killed the traffic on their site. What options are left? I'm hoping...

    6.5 Grendel white tail results with 2 different bullets

    Had the pleasure of using the 16” 6.5 Grendel for taking a couple does this year. I took one with a neck shot using the 123g Hornady SST bullet. Surprisingly the bullet did not exit the neck. Below is a picture of the entry, the opposite side was just a large bulge under the hide. This bullet...

    How do you organize your spare magazines?

    I am not the most organized person in the world, but its getting a bit out of hand with spare mags laying around for several different firearms. ARs, AKs, several different types of handguns... So the guns go in the safe, then what do you guys do with all of your extra magazines to keep them...

    What new firearm would you like to see made?

    So, hypothetical scenario, you have a gun designer/engineer genie pop out of your new bottle of Slip 2000 as you open the cap. You can pick one new gun from any manufacturer, pistol, rifle, shotgun doesn't matter. We will assume aftermarket support will be automatic (holsters, sights, optic...

    What calibers would you keep?

    If you were going to cut down to say 5 different calibers/gauges to keep stocked, and only have guns chambered in these rounds, which rounds would they be? This is all rounds, rifle, handgun, shotgun etc. For my area, im thinking it would look like this. 1. 12g 2. 5.56 3. 357 mag 4. 30-06...

    Members with YouTube channels?

    I was just curious if any other members here had gun related YouTube channels and thought it would be a great idea for a thread to allow the fellow highroad community to support each other and enjoy some gun content on YouTube. I have not had mine long so not a lot of content yet, but if you...

    40 S&W 180g coated lead bullet data needed.

    As the title says, I need load data for 180g hitek (Probably spelled wrong) coated bullets. Neither of my manuals list it, Alliant website doesn’t help me at all and neither does Hodgdons website. I even have the annually paid hornady app and it is ****. They got me for one year but that’s gonna...

    Any reason there are no xds/shield’s in 10mm?

    As the title says, I wonder why there are no single stack compact guns in 10mm? If the 45 fits, a 10mm will fit. Is it something mechanical just not doable in that size or is it just not a marketable item? I would buy the first 4” xds or shield 10 that I saw. need to start chanting to the...

    Is anyone seeing anything eye catching or intriguing from shot? I’m seeing a noticeable interest in the 5.7x28 round. Diamond back has a neat AR style pistol in it that was announced. what else are you all seeing that’s interesting?

    10mm platform, which and why?

    So looking over my handgun inventory, I am missing anything in 10mm. I know that want is enough reason for buying a gun you desire, but in my mind, I have to come up with a role for it to serve, sometimes its just cool factor, but I think the utility of the 10mm round, deserves a functioning...

    10 yrs old, putting you boys to shame

    Yeah the title needs to be taken in jest, but I must admit I’m a proud dad. so my two oldest girls have followed my footsteps and want to begin tactical style shooting with ARs. I’ve made them prove it by shooting full size guns for drills, knowing good and well it was not ideal. They...
