What’s up with the 10mm Auto cartridge? Professor Paul will discuss the history of the 10mm Auto in the United States, where it was and where it is today. How can you choose the right ammunition for the job?
During our Tech Talk from EOTech Inc, we will consider building the “perfect” prairie dog rifle. From what kind of distances can we really expect to shoot? What optic combination would seem to be the perfect “Goldilock” solution?
Also, for our SOTG Homeroom this week from SOTGU, we consider the new book from Nicholas Orr, A Pipe Hitter’s Guide to Strength & Wellness. You are the Operating System for whichever gun you choose.

A gun is only a tool, it is you who are the operating system for which every firearm you decide to use. The latest offering from our good friend Nick Orr is available for pre-sale now as a Kindle with the paperback promised for May 1, 2025 and it is entitled; A Pipe Hitter’s Guide to Strength and Wellness.
Nicholas Orr is back with the 9th edition in the Pipe Hitter’s Guide series. During this book Nick emphasizes that when all is said and done, you are the operating system. It is your mind and body that are the most important aspect or part of the equation. Purchasing things does not make you stronger or more skillful.
With three decades of experience and training, Mr. Orr lays out a simple to follow, but not necessarily “easy” plan to become physically stronger, have a healthy brain, and experience wellness in your life. Remember the words of Mark Rippetoe; “Strong people are harder to kill than weak people, and more useful in general.”
