22.087 - 53.093 Hunter

Here we go. This is a live fire media show. Episode number 36. This is a show where we talk about guns, gear, movies, games, music, and more. Sometimes a lot more. Your hosts tonight are the always entertaining, sometimes FUD, Hunter of Range Hot. Yay. Yay. Wow. I'm Quonka47, a.k.a. Dave from High Point. Let's get into the show. What's up, buddy?

0

53.673 - 68.59 Dave

Man, I'm just sitting here enjoying my holidays. I hope you had a wonderful Christmas. Yeah, I did, man. I hope you did, too. I did. Santa was far better to me than I deserved. Oh, really? Oh, yeah.

0

68.61 - 82.485 Hunter

What did Santa get you? Let's go this. Well, truck parts and some clothes. Wait, not truck parts. Truck parts for the notorious truck you haven't talked about in forever?

0

86.347 - 112.516 Dave

I can see this is going to be a long night. Wow. You're taking a fence on already. Yeah. You know, when I see somebody with their hat backwards, you know what? I automatically think, Oh God, here we go. Let's hear it. They're a douche bag. Like I guess. Thank you for supporting my stereotype. Well, I know, I know how this night's going to go for me too. No, everything was good, man.

113.117 - 118.847 Dave

I got to spend some time with family and eat well. It was nice having some time off.

119.407 - 130.205 Hunter

Yeah, all right. What did you take off for, like, obviously Christmas itself? Were you off New Year's, Christmas Eve, the Friday after? What did you do?

130.225 - 141.197 Dave

I took half day Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, and then work is usually slow until Christmas. the beginning of November, November, January, January.

141.297 - 141.557 Hunter

Right.

Chapter 2: How does the weather affect shooting performance?

506.171 - 516.1 Hunter

Just praying for the best, looking at it, trying to frame myself best possible or whatever it was. It was like, Sometimes you just got to do that shit. And sometimes you can turn out some decent looking shit.

0

516.521 - 533.827 Dave

You know, this looked all right, you know, but I'm using the old camera mic and I'm looking at that. And I'm like, man, this is, this is like going back in the stone age. Right. Now I'm shooting with the EVA one with, you know, prime glass and wireless.

0

534.187 - 536.33 Hunter

See how much your skill itself has actually grown.

0

537.572 - 538.033 Hunter

That's cool.

538.654 - 553.963 Dave

So, um, but yeah, man, uh, that, It's a nice optic. It's night force, dude. All this stuff's nice. This is my first foyer. I walked into this, David, honestly, completely ignorant.

556.545 - 562.331 Hunter

Come on, man. Not completely. You knew they were quality glass. You just never messed with them. I have been told.

563.472 - 605.225 Dave

Knowing something and being told something is two different things. True. But yes, I have been told that they were on par with Leupold. which I had trouble believing until that thing showed up at my house. I got to admit, I was really smitten with it. It's a hell of an optic, man. It's like a piece of precision equipment. tunneled inside of a tank because it is extremely, extremely durable.

605.806 - 629.729 Dave

I was impressed with it. Is this shot at your house? Yeah, man. That's cool. Yeah, that's old pine tree that had had a bad spot in it and we cut it down a year ago and I drug it over into the woods and use it when people come and we party. It's like, don't drive any further than this because your car will be in the woods.

Chapter 3: How do you cook a prime rib for the first time?

1587.132 - 1594.401 Hunter

Just a camera. Yeah. It was a ton of Amazon. Like I, I had a multi-pack selected for a while and I don't know, I must've kicked it on my cart.

0

1594.516 - 1607.32 Dave

I'm going to, I'm going to put a couple of my range bag and the screen. I'm actually going to go over all the points that I had to wrap and, but yeah, there you go.

0

1609.925 - 1618.844 Hunter

I mean, different roles. It looks like, it looks like M 81 and maybe some, I don't know. M81, multicam.

0

1619.585 - 1636.527 Dave

They've got so many different variations. I just got the old school Woodland. Yep. And it works amazing just to cover up. It's like Flecktarn there. Cover up Sharpies, Sharpie points.

0

1637.028 - 1645.078 Hunter

Yeah. No, that's slick. I've seen tons of guys on the gram with huge amounts of the stuff. Oh, really?

1645.719 - 1645.819

Yeah.

1647.301 - 1664.265 Hunter

Back to here. Huge amounts of it. Wow, that was big. Like, it almost looks bulbous on their guns because of where, like, the handguard is, their grip meets, so it's a T, but it's rounded, and even the top is, like, rounded over. Just massive amounts. It's like, what the hell?

1664.285 - 1671.775 Hunter

Like, that even almost looks a little excessive, but I guess at the same time, if it conforms to you and how you're gripping... And it's squishy, you know?

1672.256 - 1674.439 Dave

Right. I mean, it's certainly got...

Chapter 4: What are the benefits of using Gideon optics?

2650.3 - 2676.109 Dave

the latch begins to wear. Right. And they were people talking about, you know, they were, they were thumb cocking at so much and pulling the trigger and under recoil that latch. Cause this, the gun would break over. Holy shit. And so now you shot it once or twice and boom, it's just emptied itself. Right. And they were saying, no, no, I'm summing up. what I read on message board.

0

2676.149 - 2702.582 Dave

So you take that with a grain of salt. Sure. But, but you know, some of these guys posted look like they were old enough to have bought single actions. No. And the Schofield was significantly more expensive than the cult. Yeah. It's completely different design. That makes sense. I mean, it was, but it had an estimated service life of a man that used it three, four years.

0

2703.473 - 2720.712 Dave

And within that time frame, you had to be worried about pulling a trigger and the damn thing unlatching itself or riding on a horseback and something kicking it. And you look down to grab your gun and you pull it out and the whole barrel flops over. And then it ain't long and that hinge wears. Right. And so now you got play.

0

2721.834 - 2755.384 Dave

And they were saying that the estimated service life on those revolvers was three to five years before it needed mechanical attention. As compared to the single action, estimated service life, 20 to 25 years. Wow. Before it needed mechanical condition, mechanical attention. And so there were two schools of thought as these guys were talking. Colt saw the advantage of the Schofield.

0

2756.039 - 2776.581 Dave

in loading and unloading, but also noted the issues with the design being high wear items. Right. And back then it's kind of like now, you know, most, most things that happen, you're going to settle with one to three, three or four rounds. You're probably not going to do a reload. Right.

2777.002 - 2777.102

Yeah.

2777.217 - 2802.162 Dave

So Colt said, we're going to make our revolver more robust and more reliable, but yet it's going to be a little slower to load and reload. And I, and man, I went down to rabbit hole when I spent about two hours looking at messaging boards and looking at videos and all that, and just educate myself. Cause I often wondered, I'm like, wonder why the Schofield wasn't more important. Now it also shot.

2802.547 - 2806.974 Dave

a lot weaker round. The 45 Schofield was certainly shorter.

2807.354 - 2807.615 Unknown

Right.

Chapter 5: What is the B&T GHM9 and why is it notable?

3133.337 - 3160.071 Dave

I've heard that some of the Buffalo Boar stuff is outside of Sammy Speck. being it's a little on the hotter side. And, and the, and the, so like I got into an argument with a guy about the 45 cult, you know, right on YouTube now. And I don't know. So I'm coming to you fresh off an argument and I have not researched what I was told. Okay.

0

3160.091 - 3195.053 Dave

But what he told me was, why would you carry a 45 cult when you can carry a 44 Magnum plus P because, Because plus P44 Magnum is this, this, and this. Sure. It's crazy hot. It's more energy of everything, but okay. So I thought, now I know that Sammy recognizes plus P9 millimeter and plus P45 auto. Right. But I'm like, I thought that was the only two calibers they recognized. Probably is.

0

3195.834 - 3228.846 Dave

So I went to Sammy. And I went to Sammy, you know, and as I always do, I got their website bookmarked and I'm searching 44 Magnum plus P nobody's home. Right. So I'm like, so I get back on there and I'm like, Hey man, you need to take a pause. He's like, I'm carrying Buffalo bore 44 Magnum plus P. Now, was it Buffalo Boar? Is he making shit up? I don't know. Yes, the internet. Who bloody knows?

0

3228.926 - 3252.306 Dave

I didn't go to Buffalo's Boar website and look it up. If you're going to jump into comments and give me shit, stand by. I'm pretty fresh off this argument. I'm like, my first thought was, oh hell, this guy's going to get fucked. I run back to the comment section. I'm like, hey man, hard stop here.

0

3253.989 - 3284.6 Dave

Sammy doesn't recognize 44 magnet plus P. Now to you, that might not mean anything, but let's just take a moment and put the kidding aside. If Sammy doesn't recognize 44 magnet plus P, that means there's no industry standard on what the pressure could be. Right. Right. You know, you could have, uh, Dave's super duper 44 Magnum plus P plus 130,000 PSI. Yeah. Whoopie fucking do.

3285.061 - 3306.167 Dave

And there's no, there's no industry standard. And so therefore manufacturers don't know how to, the manufacturer cannot say my gun is rated for 44 Magnum plus P. Right. Because now that pressure is up to interpretation by a bullet manufacturer, an ammunition manufacturer. Right.

3306.822 - 3321.777 Hunter

And the problem with that is... I think calling shit plus P... My hat's driving me nuts. I think calling shit plus P or plus P plus on loads like that, they don't exist. That's becoming the...

3321.959 - 3344.052 Hunter

the go-to thing to say especially if you don't know you're just like oh yeah it's it's really hot stuff it's plus p plus you're that's like motion like just come on and you you want that intentionally like you're trying to wear your gun out more and break your own hands when you're shooting it and blow your magazine out possibly right semi-auto it's like if you what if what's your boat man

3346.006 - 3362.269 Dave

But, you know, that's the thing. You're stoking in, you know, Uncle Bob's basement reloads. 44 Magnum plus P plus, you know. Guaranteed, if it don't blow your gun up and kill you, it's going to... So, I'm like... Better wear a collar than shoot anything so it doesn't come blow back and get you in the damn jug.
