Are the chances of encountering snakes more likely to cause you to choose this ammo over a standard round. Personally I don't like them, similar to Indiana Jones phobia. Years ago I almost stepped down on a Western Diamond Back/Mojave rattlesnake?. Another stride and it would have been bad...

For trailers, i have always preferred a dual axle. I have found them to be safer in a blown tire scenario. If you lose a tire at Hwy speeds, the other axle and remaining tire on the 2nd axle, will keep the trailer tracking straight. With a single axle, there is a much higher percentage of...
