0:03.8

We're about to find out with double taps, Mike Maynett, right now.

0:12.5

This gun talk hunt is brought to you by Hodgden, the gunpowder people.

0:17.0

It's also brought to you by Timney Triggers, the world's finest triggers.

0:21.7

All right, welcome into another gun talk hunt. I am your host, KJ, and you know what?

0:26.6

But it's a good day. It's a good day every time I get to see my good buddy, Mike

McNet, of double tap ammunition. But he's here on a gun talk hunt, talking hunting stories.
