In this episode, John McAdams sits down with Tyler Grethen, Marketing Director at Weatherby, for a comprehensive look at one of America's most storied firearm manufacturers.

They discuss the move from California to Wyoming, the legendary Mark V action (including the nine-lug, six-lug, and new short actions), the extremely popular Vanguard line, the innovative 307 series built on a Remington 700 footprint, as well as Weatherby's cartridge lineup and their loaded ammunition offerings.

Matt Samet is the former editor-in-chief of Climbing Magazine, a writer and author, and a sport-climbing pioneer. We talked about his decade-plus battle with benzo addiction, his advice for people who experience anxiety or depression, what Rifle was like in the early ‘90s, how Chris Sharma broke the paradigm, embracing training to send his hardest routes, his new role with the American Alpine Club, and the inaugural American Climbing Journal coming later this year.

Joel Turner spent 11 years as a SWAT sniper instructor before becoming one of the most well known instructors in the hunting world. His take on why hunters miss is unlike anything you've heard — and it applies equally to archery and rifle.We start with how bullets actually kill. From there we get into the pre-ignition flinch... why there's no such thing as a subconscious override of the central nervous system, what open loop vs. closed loop trigger press actually means, and why the fix isn't mechanics. The fix is speech. Joel's core argument: the skill is not in the shooting, it's in what you say in your head while you shoot.In this episode:Hydrostatic shock, the 2,200 fps threshold, and why a .22 Creedmoor can kill elkPre-ignition flinch — open vs. closed loop trigger press explainedWhy talking yourself through the shot is the actual skillThe 2014 blacktail story — how Joel figured it all out in a rainy tree standCommentary shooting from police driver training and why it works for archeryFree diving and breath holds — why that culture already knows thisHinge releases: when they're a fix for a mental problem vs. a legitimate choiceElk calling — distress calf vs. bull calling cows bugle, and the textbook bull setupThe yo stop: why a bull whirling at 10 yards is a controlled shot, not a panic shotGuest: Joel Turner — ShotIQ founder, former SWAT sniper team instructor, competitive barebow archer. Joel's elk calling app: https://www.mtnwispr.com/Shot IQ: https://shotiq.com/Instagram: @joelturner_actualChapters00:00 How Bullets Actually Kill04:44 The Flinch Mechanism34:17 The 2014 Breakthrough45:48 Commentary Shooting51:44 Snap Shots & Mental Game01:14:02 Listener Questions01:20:33 Free Diving Parallel01:41:22 Elk Calling System---FOLLOW CLIFFYouTube - https://www.youtube.com/c/CliffGrayInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/Cliffgry/Facebook - https://facebook.com/PursuitWithCliffPursuit With Cliff Podcasthttps://pursuitwithcliff.com/interviews-and-podcasts/Cliff's Hunt Planning and Strategy Membership https://pursuitwithcliff.com/membership/Hunt.

Norah is visiting Tucson this week, so she has stopped by the studio to procure some Mango affection (via bribery) and make an appearance on the podcast! They were planning on doing a different word initially, but they are keeping it in the same wheelhouse to make a distinction between the two words—often used as synonyms. After a quick introduction where Ben talks about the game review code he received for the recent port of the N64 game Glover, Norah and Ben discuss their thoughts on the differences between retro and vintage, antique and vintage collections or items, and educational techniques that aren't keeping pace with technological advancements.

Bryce M. Towsley joins John McAdams for a comprehensive look at the Savage Model 99 rifle. From its origins with Arthur Savage and the early 1899/99 models to its innovative internal hammer, rotary magazine with cartridge counter, and ability to handle modern smokeless cartridges with pointed bullets, we cover what made this lever action truly different from the Winchesters and Marlins of its era. Bryce shares his personal experiences hunting with the 300 Savage, the evolution of cartridges available in the Model 99 (303 Savage, 22 Savage Hi-Power, 250 Savage, 300 Savage, 308 Winchester, 358 Winchester, 284 Winchester, and more), why the rifle was so popular in the northeast big woods, realisticaccuracy expectations, and the reasons Model 99 production eventually ended.

 Are air rifles just toys for kids, or a legitimate training tool for serious shooters? In this episode of the Guns Podcast, Brent Wheat and Roy Huntington dive into the world of air guns — exploring how these accessible, affordable firearms can help you hone your marksmanship skills without the hassle or expense of visiting a crowded indoor range. From classic Daisy BB guns to high-powered pre-charged pneumatics (PCP), we break down the different types of air rifles and pistols available for every budget. We also cover crucial air gun safety tips, including why you should never use petroleum-based lubricants and the unique recoil impulses that can destroy standard optics. Whether you are setting up a cardboard box trap in your garage or stalking grasshoppers on a backyard safari, this episode will show you why every gun enthusiast needs an air rifle in their collection. Plus, stay tuned to the end as we read some hilarious comments from our listeners, discussing what it means to be a low-speed, high-drag Fudd! Key Takeaways Air rifles provide a cost-effective and highly accessible way to practice shooting fundamentals without going to a public range. You do not need a massive backyard; a simple cardboard box and paper targets in a garage are perfect for close-range air gun training. Avoid using petroleum-based lubricants on air guns, as it can rot the seals and cause dieseling inside the chamber. Break-barrel air rifles have powerful springs and forward recoil impulses that can destroy traditional scopes — always use air-gun-rated optics. High-quality replica airguns and airsoft guns are excellent for teaching the manual of arms safely and effectively. Don't overlook airsoft for force-on-force training, as many tactical professionals use them for realistic practice. --- Have a topic idea or a guest you'd like to see in a future episode?

Recorded live in the field—audio-journal style—this episode takes us into Spain's rugged Pyranese Mountains, where our great pal Austin Brown and his buddy Grant Gingerich hunt wily mountain-dwelling roedeer and cagy old mouflon rams. All free range, earned the right way by putting in the hard yards in very steep, rough country. Austin puts his beloved .280 Ackley to work, and Grant carried his 6.5 Creedmoor. Some great insight on the comparative performance of those two rounds coming in a future episode!  From the terrain, to the food, to this ancient historic archetecture, to the outstanding hunting, this trip to Spain was incredible.
