    Cartridge size and powder burn rate.

    I was going to mention expansion ratio, but you beat me to it

    Gotta say, I prefer Iowa to Kansas 10-1

    Tactical pants for hunting

    Well, both brands came in and were too large. Too baggy in the seat and crotch. Going to have to return them and get a smaller size (waist and length). Both have some features that I like better than the other, so I will want to wear them both in the field for a while before deciding which one...

    The blended BDUs definitely dried faster than the 100%(ish) cotton blue jeans, but not as fast as 100% synthetic. I figure it will likely be a trade off but not nearly as expensive as the hunting branded stuff

    Boot delima

    You can buy Meindls online, try them on at home, then send them back if they don’t fit right. I’m sure other brands are the same way. I also agree on the lacing types

    Canadian Rockies High School Graduation Trip (pic heavy)

    Beautiful pictures, and I get what you mean on the emotions. My oldest daughter is getting married next week. God only gave them to us for a short while, and then they must stand on their own. We can be there to help them along the way, but you have to hope that you did right in your raising...
