Grau, it needs to be 0000 very fine steel wool, a fire-stick works better, which is a bar of magnesium from which you can shave filings with a knife, C-4 works best!

shave the bar so that the filings go into a bandana and not onto the ground. you need a small pile for it to work correctly. if your shaving just fling onto the ground they are not condensed enough to stay lit for long. a lot of hand santisers burn, cotton swabs soaked in vaseline, a chunk of old inner tube, and dryer lint (<<< really works well) all do pretty well.

I'm just going to stay put. In the movies nothing exciting ever happens in Iowa, unless you want to play baseball with Shoeless Joe Jackson and a bunch of other dead ball players.

A Glock 18? Really? A fully auto handgun? You can't hit the broadside of a barn with that 1200rpm 9mm anti-aircraft machine pistol.

how about a Barrett rifle one round goes through about 20 or more. course it's slow and you will need that mule for ammo

Yeah, Lee Enfield Mk IV with .270Winchester ammo. 
@ Gnomey - you can tell us Brits a mile away, just little tell tale signs
"Rifle of some description with ammo"
Yeah,
Had a couple in mind but didn't know which one I would take. Wouldn't mind a .275 Magnum elephant rifle but it does have a fair bit of kick, but then again knocks out anything pretty quickly.- Thread starter

Matt, I had an old lee enfield many years ago which i sporterized from the mil version but it was .303 cal.
Gnomey, don't you mean a .475cal for elephant. .275cal maybe at mach 10 muzzle velocity
Bobby, still like my 2-bbl sawed off, there's something about looking down those 2 barrels that loosens every bodily sphincter. just like hearing the snick-snick of a pump shotgun behind you. and 00 buck has a definite inhibitory effect

You reaffirmed my point. My humour meter is off lately. I must self-flagellate as repentance.
Nope got the numbers wrong. Is a .375 Magnum we used in South Africa as rangers. Some .500's about too. The Rangers in Kruger used to use essentially M14's in the elephant culls. Just headshot elephant with a 7.62 and it goes down. They got a record of 33 elephants in under 5 minutes with this method from a helicopter, similar numbers of buffalo in that space of time as well. Very impressive shooting.

Just my wife and daughter. We 3 can survive anything.
Hmmmm this is a hard one
Working on a few assumptions like I'm the only one around, and I've got to take stuff from the house / shed…..not a wish list from Machine Gun Mart !...and I don't know how long it going t*ts up for.
1. My trainers. They smell sooo bad I'd not have any problem with visiting wildlife looking for an easy meal and they'd put off any tracker dogs !
2. My Irvin flying jacket. Aint nothing keeps you warm like a pukka Irvin.
3. My Wallmart camo PVC cape. $6.00 well spent
4. A wind up torch
5. My .22 air rifle and some pellets….(not allowed a Barratt cos the missus says so !)
6. My look-a-like leatherman. £8.00 and its not let me down yet
7. My Harley bandana….makes me look 'well hard'
8. A box of 'OXO' cubes (for making a gravy to have with the rabbit I shot with air rifle when it came to investigate the stench from my trainers and I dazzled it with my wind up torch while trying to look like Rambo with my bandana on)
9. My WW2 air crew emergency axe
10. A screwdriver
And before I'd leave the house, I'd make sure I'd torch it so no-one can get their hands on my possessions that I've collected over the years…if I cant have them, then no-one else is.
