I have started looking for a vehicle ...

Ive heard that in extreme cases you can let maggots infest a wound to clean it as they only eat dead flesh.

The only antidote we had was a radio and if you could contact the other end a helicpter would be sent.
This was in Belize.
But like most creepy crawlies they are well gone before you get there. In 6 months I only saw 2 snakes. The most venomous in Belize was a viper by the name of "Fer-de-Lance"

A few years ago someone set a record with a .50BMG rifle.
Sub 1 inch group at 1000 yards or meters I think.
Its not as impressive as it sounds as it was off hand shooting, ie rifle clamped into position and only finger touching trigger.
This is what a 1000yd group should look like

The RM cam and con test is you have to stalk a distance (cant remember but several 100m) upto a pointfacing an instructor.
There is a time limit.
You then have to fire 1 shot and after a period of time (I think 2min) fire
a second shot.
If you are still not seen you pass :lol:

However you can fail ...
