Survival Blog is a gold mine of interesting and useful information, like the recent set of articles on do-it-yourself aluminum casting– who knew that people did such a thing?? Fascinating.
Anyway, here’s another very useful article, on the deceptively simple act of tossing a pack on your back and setting off. There’s some very good advice in there, and best of all is this– try it out and work it out, before you have to throw it on and get out.
Also, recently we highlighted another Survival Blog note about Silver Bear ammo being non-corrosive, and therefore a good source for the millions of Mosins out there. I believe that its brother Brown Bear is also non-corrosive, and is even cheaper. Good news all around. (Can someone say yea or nay on this??)
