We have a special guest on the show with us today: Jim Harmer, better known as Backfire on YouTube. I've followed Jim's YouTube channel for a while now and it was great to finally get a chance to talk to him. Today we talk about how he got started in this business, hunting Africa with the 6.5 Creedmoor, the pros and cons of hunting with match bullets, his favorite cartridge and bullet, what the future holds for him, etc.
