We've lived through a pretty crazy few years. Recent events have led to a surge in interest in firearms with those who want to be better prepared and equipped to take care of themselves in a crisis. With that in mind, today's episode compares and contrasts 2 of the most popular cartridges used for those tasks: the 223 Remington and the 308 Winchester. In this episode, I investigate the 223 vs 308 debate in detail in order to provide some insight into which one is best for you.

Betrayal Season 5

Betrayal Season 5

Saskia Inwood woke up one morning, knowing her life would never be the same. The night before, she learned the unimaginable – that the husband she knew in the light of day was a different person after dark. This season unpacks Saskia’s discovery of her husband’s secret life and her fight to bring him to justice. Along the way, we expose a crime that is just coming to light. This is also a story about the myth of the “perfect victim:” who gets believed, who gets doubted, and why. We follow Saskia as she works to reclaim her body, her voice, and her life.
