Tworld Hunting Rifle Bipod Review

#riflebipod

I got this rifle bipod for a review and frankly I did not expect much, but it turned out to be a pretty decent bipod. I would not use it for a 1 mile high power shot, but for hunting or messing around at 300-400 yards it looks like it would do well.

It is sturdy and a proven design. if I am being honest (and I did get this for an honest review) I don’t like the bipod legs – they look to be the week spot in the bipod design. But to be fair, I don’t think they will be a problem in normal use.

This rifle bipod went on easy and I particularly like the rail adaptor. I probably would pay $10 just for it.

All in all I would give this 4 out of 5 stars and would probably buy one if I needed another bipod. Of course you do get what you pay for and while I would use this for a truck gun, a beater, or a loaner, I probably would not use this on my main rifle or for serious use.

But, as I said, the rail adaptor is pretty sturdy and I plan on using that even when I don’t use the bipod.

Body weight Exercise Cards Review

Gear Review: Body weight Exercise Cards — Buy at Amazon

#NewMeFitness

I got these body weight exercise cards for my wife because she is serious about getting healthy and loosing weight. Personally I use my fat as warmth in the winter. When I got these cards she was not in the mood to do a video and right before I made the video I made her mad – so instead of actually seeing these really cool cards in use you get me talking about it.

I like the cards, but I don’t like ya’ll enough to show myself sweating an cursing trying to do a sit-up.

These cards are really good though, if I am serious about it. they make exercising easier because they have clear instructions, accurate pictures, and easy to follow workouts.

I like training cards like these, they don’t take up a lot of space and are simple to use. Cards are also pretty cost effective. I have card decks for wild plant identification, dry fire firearm training, and of course lots of scenario cards from conflicted.

I think they are worth buying, even if I got my set from tomoson for a review. I did not get paid for my opinion, but I did get these body weight exercise cards at a discount in exchange for this review.

Easy@Home Blood Pressure Monitor Review

#EBP095LARGECUFF

This is an easy to use home blood pressure monitor. I like it because I never could get the hang of reading blood pressure with a sphygmomanometer. However I think every at home medical kit – especially one for preppers needs the ability to read blood pressure. This one has a memory and give both a numerical reading and a color coded backlit screen to tell at a glance if your where you should be with blood pressure.

This comes in three sizes (large is shown) so be careful if you order one. My kid likes playing doctor with it and this electronic Blood Pressure Monitor is simple enough a four year old can successfully use it on a cooperating adult. I have to be careful though, as I have to hide the results from m wife as they are not as perfect readings as she would like. However, my blood pressure is not too bad because I am a pretty calm guy.

I do recommend a manual blood pressure test kit containing a stethoscope and a sphygmomanometer, but you would also need to develop the skill to actually read blood pressure with the manual tools.

This is a review of a product I got in exchange for evaluating it.

Kitchen DIY: Cooking Bread in a Grill

One of the main reasons I write books like this is to help promote the notion that anyone can solve their problems with a little out of the box thinking. This article on cooking bread in a grill is just one example.

Most people think you have to have an oven to bake bread – not true – all you need is a source of steady and controllable heat. Bread can be baked anywhere you can get controlled heat

Once you learn how to separate requirements from results you will be surprised at how many ways you can see to get the job done. The big thing to remember with baking on a grill is that it is hottest near the flames, so elevate the bread (even if you need to improvise.

A grill thermometer is adequate for a good bread Another important thing to note is that to bake perfect bread you need to be able to control both time and temperature. Since most grill have a thermometer on them, you should have it under control, but you may need to add a thermometer, or experiment until you learn just the right sized fire for your recipe.

Depending on your grill you may need to bake on the top rack Rolls and buns will probably bake in 15 to 20 minutes and loaves will take 20 to 30 minutes depending on their size and the grill’s temperature. If you are making an entire meal – either to show off during a barbeque, or in some grid down emergency, timing is important.

Cook the bread before the meat. This allows the bread to cool, and grease from cooking meat makes the temperature unstable, and the smoke and soot from burning grease can stain your bread. Grills don’t circulate air as well as ovens do, which can lead to uneven heating. You may need to rotate your bread halfway through baking to have even cooking.

Grilled bread tastes wonderful There is also a tendency for flames to burn the bottom of the bread, so keep the flames low and the bread elevated on a rack.
