Hunting Hogs With A Knife

This video features an in-depth discussion on custom rifle building for nighttime predator hunting, specifically with expert Todd Bonura of Maniacal Arms. Host KJ and Todd explore topics like hunting hogs and coyotes under moonlight using thermal optics and building specialized rifles. The episode provides practical tips, gear insights, and behind-the-scenes shop talk for night hunters, covering applications in Texas and Kansas.

This video follows a roe buck stalking expedition in the Scottish Highlands, guided by experienced stalker John Dodd. The team navigates diverse terrains, from forests to farmlands, in pursuit of one of Britain's most sought-after deer. The content highlights various aspects of hunting, including early morning stalks, thermal tracking with a deer dog named BOSS, and discussions on roe buck behavior and management. The HIKMICRO HABROK thermal optic is tested in real-world conditions, and the video culminates with one of the hunters successfully taking their first Scottish roe buck. Additional elements include pigeon shooting and campfire conversations, blending authentic hunting experiences with narrative storytelling.

This video provides an overview of the gear used for hog hunting, focusing on the tools and equipment employed to manage wild hog populations and protect livestock and land. The content covers various night-hunting technologies, including thermal optics and night vision, as well as hunting rifles and necessary accessories like tripods. The host emphasizes the importance of effective tools in mitigating damage and preserving resources.

This expert-level entry defines a 'brush gun' as a firearm optimized for highly maneuverable, short-distance engagements (under 50 yards), primarily for hunting. It debunks the myth that traditional heavy calibers like .45-70 and .30-30 are immune to brush deflection, explaining that any significant obstruction can alter a bullet's path. The ideal brush gun is characterized by its maneuverability and often features red dot or peep sights for quick target acquisition.

Steven Rinella shares a harrowing hunting tale involving a questionable moose shot and an accidental chamber clear. He recounts being charged and run over by the wounded moose while wearing chest waders, highlighting the critical importance of firearm readiness and situational awareness in the wilderness. The story emphasizes the unpredictable nature of hunting and the quick thinking required to survive dangerous encounters.

This video from Brownells provides a comprehensive guide to thermal optics for hunting and shooting. Steve and Caleb cover the fundamental principles of mounting and sighting thermal devices, comparing them to traditional night vision. They discuss practical applications for hog and coyote hunting, demonstrating the mounting process for the Pulsar Talion XQ35 Pro on both AR-style and bolt-action rifles. Key considerations like eye relief, cheek weld, and recoil management are explained, highlighting how thermal optics significantly enhance night hunting capabilities.

This video tests the 'magic bullet' theory surrounding the JFK assassination using a 6.5 Carcano rifle and a ballistic skull. Recovered bullets showed less deformation than expected, challenging assumptions about the original evidence. The test highlights the unpredictable nature of bullet performance after impact.

This video tests a Pedersoli Baby Philadelphia Derringer replica, the type used by John Wilkes Booth to assassinate Abraham Lincoln. The test demonstrates the .45 caliber black powder pistol's surprising close-range power, capable of penetrating a beverage can and causing significant fragmentation in a ballistic dummy head. The analysis compares the impact to historical accounts of Lincoln's skull fragments, highlighting the effectiveness of historical firearms.

This video compilation highlights critical firearm safety failures, emphasizing the dangers of ignoring basic rules. It features incidents like accidental discharges due to poor recoil management on revolvers and unsafe reholstering practices. The content serves as a stark educational tool, warning against dangerous internet trends and reinforcing the importance of responsible gun handling to prevent life-altering injuries.

This video analyzes the assassination attempt on Donald Trump by replicating the shooter's AR-15 setup and the Secret Service's counter-shot. It debunks conspiracy theories by demonstrating the difficulty of the initial shot and the terminal ballistics of both the attacker's and defender's rounds using high-speed footage and ballistic dummies. The analysis emphasizes that a precise ear-only shot from that distance with the described rifle is highly improbable.
