10-33 is the radio code for “Officer in need of Immediate Assistance”. It is also the aptly named title of the "Ten Thirty Three" podcast hosted by retired police officer Nathan Kaplan. Nathan is incredibly honest in sharing his struggles with mental health, addiction and dealing with the trauma he has sustained through life and through his career with the RCMP. His hope is that others may benefit from his perspective and experience and he uses the power of story to continue his lifelong dedication to assisting those in need.

June is mens mental health awareness month and this episode was created specifically to provide nuance and shed light on a topic that is stilly highly stigmatized.

If you, or someone you know is suffering from negative mental health speak up, reach out, contact a mental health professional or, in an emergency, contact emergency services.

To quote past Silvercore Podcast guest Shaun Taylor, “Seb Lavoie is a true leader”. Seb spent his career protecting others both in Canada’s military and as Sgt. Major of of the BC RCMP Emergency Response Team and he continues the role of protector through the private and public work he does helping others aspire to be their best. This is a powerful episode where Seb and Travis have a candid discussion on mental health, progressive leadership, overcoming fear, handling panic, why Seb left the RCMP, the value of living your life in a meaningful way, relationship with others and perspectives on wealth creation. In a world filled with false bravado, virtue signalling and social media platitudes, Seb shows how kindness, compassion and humility are the true characteristics of the modern day warrior.

Travis Bader speaks candidly with two ex British Army soldiers about the importance of community, belonging and trust and how our connection with the natural world affects our wellbeing.

Transitioning from military to civilian life presents challenges and learning lessons that everyone, regardless of their background, can find value in. Tune in for some hard learned lessons on mental resiliency, re-establishing purpose and dealing with adversity.

I would encourage everyone to listen to this in its entirety and to share their thoughts and experiences so that others who may be struggling can benefit.

Increase your odds of being drawn, and of having a successful hunt by better understanding BC’s Limited Entry Hunting in this LEH masterclass.

How do enhanced odds work?
When will the LEH be announced or drawn?
How do group hunts differ from shared hunts?
When is a possession limit considered reset?
How are draws determined
What should you be considering before choosing your draw?
And so much more…

Travis Bader is joined by BC’s Data Licensing Unit Head Sarah McKinnon, and Policy and Regulation Analyst Stephen MacIver as they delve into the inner workings of BC’s LEH and answer questions posed by Silvercore Club members.

British Columbia is unique in its massive biodiversity and recognizes the need to involve the public and interested stakeholders in effective management. There will always be contrary opinions on best practices, but one underlying sentiment that shines through in this episode is the level of care that all parties have in the sustainable management of wildlife.

When you're lost in the Wild, and you're scared as a child, And Death looks you bang in the eye, And you're sore as a boil, it's according to Hoyle To cock your revolver and . . . die. But the Code of a Man says: "Fight all you can," And self-dissolution is barred. In hunger and woe, oh, it's easy to blow . . . It's the hell-served-for-breakfast that's hard.

"You're sick of the game!" Well, now, that's a shame. You're young and you're brave and you're bright. "You've had a raw deal!" I know — but don't squeal, Buck up, do your damnedest, and fight. It's the plugging away that will win you the day, So don't be a piker, old pard! Just draw on your grit; it's so easy to quit: It's the keeping-your-chin-up that's hard.

It's easy to cry that you're beaten — and die; It's easy to crawfish and crawl; But to fight and to fight when hope's out of sight — Why, that's the best game of them all! And though you come out of each gruelling bout, All broken and beaten and scarred, Just have one more try — it's dead easy to die, It's the keeping-on-living that's hard.

Becoming Wild: Living the Primitive Life on a West Coast Island

Grizzly bear hunting was banned in BC and now there are efforts in place to ban the wolf hunt. Will it stop there, or is all hunting under attack? Predator hunting, trophy hunting, and “the social licence to operate” is what this episode is all about.

Travis speaks with Steve Hamilton and Greg Rensmaag of the Wild Sheep Society of BC and the Talk is Sheep Podcast about this emotionally charged topic and what is the best way to work in harmony with nature and to pragmatically protect our natural resources.

If you have a story that would be of value to the Silvercore audience, or know someone who does, email us at podcast@silvercore.ca. We would love to hear from you!

Topics discussed in this episode:

Intro [00:00:00 - 00:02:52]
Gain twist barrels, is there merit there? [00:02:52 - 00:09:04]
Your specifications say barrel within .0001”-.0002”, which is extremely consistent. Many people talk about 22lr barrels needing a ‘Choke’. With this consistency, are your barrels not choked and is it really required? [00:09:04 - 00:14:48]
Is it common to have a schnozzle, schnabel on the end of a barrel? [00:14:48 - 00:18:11]
Barrel length, short or long for accuracy, which is better? [00:18:11 - 00:21:55]
Why different powders product different results [00:21:55 - 00:23:03]
They say you need a straight barrel bore for accuracy, is it true? How straight is the bore? [00:23:03 - 00:25:25]
Is there such a thing as a hummer barrel as a hummer barrel? [00:25:25 - 00:25:25]
Is there an optimal headspace?
What is the purpose of the shnobel on a barrel? [00:28:40 - 00:29:29]
Any plans on a barrel in 6.5 PRC? [00:29:29 - 00:30:25]
Is there any accuracy or other differences between the number of grooves a barrel has? [00:30:25 - 00:32:13]
Is there any truth to barrel break-in? [00:32:13 - 00:35:34]
How international is IBI? [00:35:34 - 00:39:23]
Whats up with “seasoning” a barrel for rimfire? [00:39:24 - 00:43:13]
How as a manufacturer do you make your barrels shoot well enough to be competitive at the highest level? [00:43:13 - 00:46:02]
With modern barrels is there any point in choosing say a Varmint/bull barrel or standard barrel for long range shooting? [00:46:02 - 00:51:05]
I’m trying to find a good reload using solid copper bullets (such as barnes ttsx, nosler e-tip, etc) in a tikka with a 1 in a 11 twist. I’m seeing lots of articles suggesting that you don’t go by weight of the bullet, but rather the length. Why is that? And is that the true way to find a good bullet for a barrel? [00:51:05 - 00:57:10]
Why are you so GQ? [00:57:10 - 00:57:38]
For my hunting rig, with weight saving in mind, should I go with a pencil barrel or a canon fibre wrap of the same length? [00:57:38 - 01:00:12]
Fast twist 22lr barrels? [01:00:12 - 01:04:35]
Cold bore vs. Clean bore [01:04:35 - 01:06:13]
How often do you clean your bore? [01:06:13 - 01:09:07]
Best practices for cleaning [01:09:07 - 01:14:20]
Fire lapping [01:14:20 - 01:16:10]
Carbon ring [01:16:10 - 01:23:05]
Does an 11 degree target crown make a difference over a 90 degree or other? [01:23:05 - 01:24:04]
Barrel or stock, which makes the most noticeable difference to accuracy? [01:24:04 - 01:24:51]
Bedding vs. V-blocks [01:24:51 - 01:26:53]
Torque settings, are the all that they are cracked up to be? [01:26:53 - 01:30:24]
Is Loctite overused? [01:30:24 - 01:32:23]
Do barrel tuners work? [01:32:23 - 01:34:37]
Will the optimal load for a barrel change over the barrels lifespan [01:34:37 - 01:35:40]
What is throat erosion and how can it be prevented? [01:35:40 - 01:37:21]
Will moly coated bullets increase barrel life? [01:37:21 - 01:40:01]
What gives premium barrel a better life span? [01:40:01 - 01:41:36]
Cryo-treating [01:41:36 - 01:42:33]

In this podcast Jimmy Hamilton from Vortex Optics and The Vortex Nation Podcast, talks about the history of Vortex Optics, the what you get in the different product lines, optics selection, field maintenance, pro-tips and what to expect from Vortex in the coming months.

With Covid-19 and social distancing measures, we are taking steps to ensure we continue to bring you the best content possible given the circumstances.

We are learning to adapt to our new situation and this is Silvercore’s very first remote podcast. We understand that these are difficult times for everyone and we want to be able to offer a little bit of respite from the day to day.

While I haven’t said it outright in the past, perhaps now is as good a time as any to explain that every guest I have had on the show has been told the same thing. That is, in a nutshell, “keep it positive”. There is enough negativity in the world, and in particular surrounding hunting and firearms, that we will stay away from talking about negative politics, or anything that may have the tendency to be divisive or travel down that worn dark path.

Here, we attract people who have a genuine passion for what they do and wish to share that passion with you. Every podcast we record is done with the end goal of educating and entertaining.

Silvercore is a training company, that’s how we earn our keep. With Covid-19 for the safety of our staff and students, all of our in person training has been postponed.

Until further notice, we are putting the emphasis on our online courses, club, podcast and YouTube videos. We will be maintaining our podcast release schedule, and working to increase the frequency. Now here is the part where I ask for your help.

If you know someone who would enjoy our podcast or YouTube videos, or anything else that Silvercore offers please share it with them. Please engage us with your comments, questions and suggestions likes, shares and subscriptions. If you have a story to tell that our audience would appreciate, or know someone who does, let us know. Your interaction will help us in providing the best possible future content.

Silvercore has several contest and giveaways running right now and here is a reminder to check out the Silvercore.ca website to learn more about the current Glock gear giveaway as well as the postal match which is free to all Silvercore members across Canada.

Today I sit down with long time friend Marshall Lowen as he recounts growing up in rural Manitoba and his adventures and misadventures while hunting and trapping across Canada.

In days of old, if you wanted to learn to hunt you would ask a friend or relative to show you. In todays society not everyone has the opportunity and learning to hunt can be rather intimidating if you don’t have someone to show you the ropes. Thats is what we talk about today with seasoned hunters Dennis Zentner and Jens Cuthbert.

Dennis spent years in commercial fishing, is the past regional president of the British Columbia Wildlife Federation, is the current president of the Vancouver Gun Club, is a CORE Hunting instructor, and has been hunting and fishing for as long as he can remember.

Jens exudes passion and positivity towards hunting in every aspect of his life. Having worked as a commercial hunting guide in the United States, Jens is a sponsored and endorsed hunter and has the fantastic Instagram feed “604backwoods” which will inspire even the most modest hunter. Jens now works at Stillwater Sports in Ladner, B.C. and spends his working and free time honing his skills and helping others enjoy our great outdoors and natural resources.

Both Dennis and Jens are responsible for helping hundreds of young folk get into hunting through the Waterfowl Heritage Days and I guarantee you, whether you are a seasoned hunter or just curious about learning more, you will find great value in this podcast.

What happens when a group of hunters, with very different backgrounds and hunting experience, embark on a week long shared moose hunt.

In this episode, Paul Ballard regales us with sage hunting advice, Rob Wilson discusses when it's appropriate to put underwear on a moose and Mike Welti shares an experience that no hunter wants to find themselves in but every hunter should be prepared for.

This episode is sponsored by Carter Motorsports in Vancouver. As a long time customer of Carter Motorsports, I was very excited when they agreed to be part of this podcast.

Also, a very big thanks to International Barrels who supplied a custom barrel chambered in 6.5 Creedmoor and Vortex Optics who supplied the scope for this hunt. All together it made for one extremely accurate hunting rig.

Silvercore has been providing bear safety training to industry professionals, both in person as well as online, for many years, but this marks the first time that I have had the opportunity to sit down and speak with someone who survived a horrific grizzly bear attack by using his pocket knife.

For those of you who are following #silvercorepodcast on social media, you will know that I have been steadily building a custom podcast studio. If the audio sounds a bit different its because it was recorded on location as I travelled to meet Colin Dowler who was gracious enough to have me in his home and to share with you his harrowing experience of grit and tenacity.

Colin wants to share his story to add to the knowledge base of bear behaviour and encounters so that you are better aware of potential dangers and to motivate you to become properly prepared and educated prior to entering into bear country.

I should warn that there are sections of this podcast that will be intense and graphic and listener discretion is advised.

Finally, if you are enjoying the Silvercore Podcast, it would sure help us out if you like, subscribe, write a review or comment and share with your friends.

Alright, here is the much anticipated part 2 of the Train your Brain to WIN series with Ryan Steacy. In part one, I sit down with Ryan to discuss his mental management practices that have allowed him to be the National Service Rifle Champion 5 years in a row. We specifically did part one right before Ryan was to fly to Ottawa to compete at the Connaught Range to see if he could extended his winning streak to a 6th year in a row.

In this episode we delve deeper into Ryan's mental management process, discuss Mental Marksmanship as coined by Keith Cunningham and Linda Miller in their book of the same name, and field some questions from our listeners.

Does Ryan's process allow for a win 6 years in a row? Is this something that you can use in your everyday life? Listen and find out.

Do you want to hit your target every time? Whether that’s a literal target or a personal or professional goal, in this podcast, Ryan Steacy will describe a mental management program that will help you win in any aspect of your life.

Learn the secrets that the professionals use to win as well as one simple trick that has helped Ryan succeed even in the face of seemingly insurmountable odds.

Whether it is in the boardroom, your personal life, sports, or in Ryan's case on the rifle range, this podcast will help teach you how to engrain winning into your subconscious.

This is a two-part episode, a first for The Silvercore Podcast. In this episode, we will discuss Ryan's mental management process shortly before he leaves to compete in an attempt to win the National Service Rifle Championship for the sixth year in a row.

In part two, I will be sitting down with Ryan soon after he returns from the championship. Here we will see if there is anything that needs to be addressed for future competitions or if his mental management process comes though for win number 6.

Silvercore Podcast Episode - 6

In this episode I talk with Mark Horsley who has recently returned from Australia where he and his shooting partner won silver in their division at the world PPC championships. Mark is a Staff Sergeant with a local police agency who was responsible for creating and implementing their revolver to semi-auto transition program and returned to his training role to assist in the development of a multi-million dollar range training facility. We talk about what it takes to compete at the world PPC championships, his time training with the FBI at Quantico Virginia, and how he overcame a horrific motorcycle accident that left him with a traumatic brain injury.

Join me as I talk with Graeme Foote about Project Mapleseed, a Canadian version of the American Appleseed marksmanship program, as well as his recent competition in the Snipers Hide cup.

Graeme is a talented photographer and the owner of http://www.amputee-shooter.com where he documents his journey in competitive marksmanship and inspires others to overcome their challenges. Being born with only one hand, Graeme has has seen rifle marksmanship as an extremely positive sport where the playing field has been levelled. Graeme and his friends have also started an "Action Rifle Rimfire" league where they introduce others into PRS style marksmanship while shooting affordable .22 ammo.

In this episode I get the privilege of speaking with Guy Cramer, the CEO of Hyperstealth Biotechnology Corporation.

Guy has created camouflage patterns for militaries all over the world as well as many popular hunting lines. If you have been to a hunting retail store, you have most likely seen his work. Guy has also invented what most felt would be impossible, a light refracting material that allows objects in front to disappear while only showing the background. Essentially, Guy has created an invisible cloak which he explains has practical applications both on and off the battlefield.
