Belleville Jungle Boots Review
I have had the new Belleville “canopy” Jungle Boots for over 10 months now and have been using them very hard. I was skeptical that they would hold up as well as my others because they cost a little more than 100 bucks and are made from imported material. On top of that, right outContinue reading “Belleville Jungle Boots Review”
Out of Town Oct 1st-2nd
No posts from me on the 1st or 2nd. I have to travel out of town for a friend’s wedding (poor dumb bastard). It is a bit of a drive and I won’t be back till the early morning hours on the 2nd. Posting from me will resume on the 3rd but will probably notContinue reading “Out of Town Oct 1st-2nd”

.218 Factory Ammo Surprise
A few months ago I got some factory Winchester .218 Bee ammo for my Martini. Now, I have had this stuff before and it’s always shit ammo. I had no intention of using it for anything other than to plink at rocks or take pot shots at chipmunks and use it up because I wantedContinue reading “.218 Factory Ammo Surprise”
