Did Trump Give Dems Ammo in Midterms, A Regular Caller is ALIVE and More! | 6-11-26See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This should be pretty obvious, right? But when you're shooting for blood, it's important to use quality ammo, especially if you're right on the ragged edge of calibers that are appropriate for whatever it is that you're shooting. Like say, feral hogs with a 357 lever gun.

"You never get a second shot at quality—do it right the first time." Episode Summary In this episode, we sit down with Gage Moulding, the Vice President of HSM Ammunition, to talk about all things ammo. We dig deep into the science and consistency required to build truly reliable ammunition, the importance of family culture in a manufacturing business, and how real-world feedback from shooters shapes the products HSM produces. We also explore how the industry reacts to supply chain challenges, changing regulations, and technological advances. Whether you're a competitive shooter, a hunter, or a casual range enthusiast, this episode delivers the kind of insider perspective you've always wanted on what it takes to put the highest quality rounds in your magazine.

Longevity among employees (loaders with 17+ years at HSM) brings unmatched institutional knowledge and consistent manufacturing processes.

Real-world feedback from hunters, competitors, and law enforcement directly influences new product development at HSM.

In this Wednesday Listener Q&A episode of The Wright Report, Bryan tackles listener questions on the war with Iran, arguing that President Trump and Vice President Vance may be underestimating the IRGC and clerical regime's willingness to endure economic pain, reject peace, and sacrifice their own people for an Islamist cause. He also answers questions on China's role in Iran and Ukraine, warning that President Xi cannot be trusted to stop sending weapons or military support while Beijing works to weaken the United States without firing a direct shot. Bryan then lays out what he would tell President Trump privately, why he rejects more Chinese students and farmland purchases in America, and what he sees as the best national security strategy: pivot away from Europe and the Middle East, focus on the Americas, counter China in the Pacific, and protect U.S. interests in Africa. Plus, Bryan covers frustrations over Deep State accountability, the SAVE Act and filibuster, Chinese influence in California politics, and why America's refinery system is mismatched with the oil it produces. He also responds to questions on Colorado's magazine limits, Flock surveillance cameras, and his own political journey from old-school Democrat roots to today's conservative outlook, reflecting on how faith, community, purpose, and meaning may offer a path back from national chaos.   "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32     Keywords: Iran war peace deal IRGC Trump Vance analysis 2026, China weapons to Iran Ukraine Russia drones Xi Jinping, Trump China students farmland Hannity response, US national security strategy Americas Pacific Africa Middle East, Deep State accountability Russia hoax James Comey DOJ FBI, SAVE Act filibuster Lankford Thune voter ID, Chinese influence California Connie Chan Fiona Ma Pelosi, US oil refineries light sweet crude heavy sour oil, Colorado magazine ban Second Amendment lawsuit, Flock cameras privacy surveillance debate, Bryan Dean Wright political journey Democrat to conservative, Bryan Dean Wright podcast, The Wright Report
