Love caches! My favorite cache story is from a friend that did a long term cache with a Ruger 10/22. He did almost everything right, but a couple of years after he put it in place he decided to see if he could retrieve it. Guess what, his cache was still in place, most likely, but the formerly wooded area was now a huge asphalt parking lot. He did not successfully retrieve it. 🤣
"they paved paradise and put up a parking lot," "they took all the trees and put them in a tree museum - charged all the people a dollar and a half just to see them" JM. (JF)
The older I get the more I appreciate the knowledge of these men. Two seasoned Green Berets sharing their knowledge. It doesn't get any better than this.
One item I have found useful for not only caches, but survival preps in general is a vacuum sealer. That and small size "space bags" are really excellent for getting air out of containers. Also, a cheap way to help with moisture absorption is to keep all of the desiccant packs that come in shoe boxes, OTC medicine bottles, or just about anything that gets shipped has them.
I’ve been subscribed forever and Randy just keeps growing on me as one of my all time favs. You know he’s a tough bastard; but what’s so cool about him is he doesn’t act like it at all. I met Karl at shotshow 2020 and still kick myself in the ass for not getting a picture. This year a goal is to attend a training course with you guys.
For me it’s fascinating watching you guys actually out working and teaching by actually doing what you’re talking about. Thank you to both you. It’s always appreciated by those people who truly care.
@@TacticalRifleman I was just referred to this video.. Awesome to see a how to by a couple guys that know their stuff. As an average American it’s nice to know I was relatively close, I learned a lot tho. At 9’in deep you will be safe from discs and blades and pretty much everything until a ripper.. Few differences is I vacuum seal as much as possible, caches are numbered and content manifests. I live near Sandhills which is great for me 👍👍…. Thank you guys for my freedom and your continuous service to the American people by sharing your knowledge…
Random thoughts. In mini caches, Take batteries out of optics and flashlight. They can go bad and corrosion will destroy them. Always include a water purification method, a way to start fire, razor blades, P38, pain relievers, compass, candle basic multi tool.
Very true. I left my batteries in my Garmin GPS handheld in my bag over the summer. Bad idea. Corroded the crap out of the Garmin. I managed to save it, but a close lesson learned!
When the cashe is for the Situation that your house did burn down my idea is a few more items: Money, List with important telephone numbers of family memers and friends, light Backpack or bag, folding saw, Poncho.
So many times I have said that I needed to have a supply cache somewhere buried that I needed to be able to retrieve if the SHTF does come to my neighborhood or rogue agents decided to visit. This video gives someone the know how in navigation and recognition of retrieval of their supplies. Good job guys. I learned a lot.
Karl! Thanks for helping us all out and teaching us all these things. You're saving so many people without even realizing it, and I thank you for that sir! You're a legend! Great work as always.
The key to caches is to have a good cache report that is concise. Also when doing a cache, take in consideration all possible contingencies. Murphy's law is real.
A cashe with some food, fishing gear, bug spray, batteries, ammo and some drink is pretty useful. I have to keep restocking. Ammo cans and plano storage totes are my preferred containers.
Hey Karl and Randy, Thanks so much for that video. Never Ever thought about a cache. Sounds simple but so important. Always learning. Tactical Rifleman Leads The Way!
another very important item would be any prescription glass, get a few extra pair of cheap glasses or even an old pair that you kept as long as they correct your vision. Being blind and in a stressful situation trying to find your cache would be a miserable death sentence. Medication too but those would need to be changed out or stored a proper depths to keep them from going bad.
In Carl's defense, trees also move. If you use the old nail and string trick with a tree limb to hide something and the tree shifts hard to one side in a storm, the tree moved... And you're gonna have fun figuring out where to dig when it does
@@OJsLeftGlove No but it can give you an idea. It'd be a bit more work but it could be found :) It's also likely to be along an arc somewhere so if you have your string to measure with, I would mark the arc and just dig along the arc till I find it
nice sitrep, I would add a small back pack/bag to carry everything. I would leave the 5 gal bucket in the ground (reinsert) after removing for "just in case"
Headlamp in the fist cashe - genius, now you have light to find your others. Noticed the 1st was small, 2nd bigger then 3rd even bigger. maybe add a big tarp in the final one, you got light then weapons, then a tarp- quick shelter, your up and ready to roll.
Thank you, You remind me of my Rec League football coach, Who was a Buds Instructor & helped me push past my limits. Great information lol You guys are funny 2!
Very nice, my hope is that many concerned citizens actually practice this technique and employ it in case a shf situation befalls us here in the USA 🇺🇸 Thanks for teaching!
I have done this. There is high voltage power lines with steel legs close to me. I use the east west legs on the South side of the tower as my pointers. Tie to the east leg, pull cord to touch the west leg run to end of cord. My only concern is keeping the cord in a safe recoverable place.
This has a lot of parallels to PA road work. Lots of digging, and no progress. Then we find rotten deer in the spring. 😉 If I could remember where I buried that cache with Bigfoot in it, I would be a rich man today. I'm sure the charcoal has nothing to do with sniffing dogs. 😁
Something to include in a cache that size with that many items would be a draw string backpack-type bag (like students/athletes wear) to carry all that stuff without having to deal with the bucket. One of those little bags "take up zero space".😁
@@TacticalRifleman I think I mentioned this to you and Randy in your outstanding class that I took in July, but the cache part 1 video was the first Tactical Rifleman vid I saw. That vid hooked me. Thanks for sharing this knowledge and your hard won wisdom.
I have buried a lot of stuff in my time and lost a lot. I agree totally my experience i have had to consider any ground stash to be fully submerged underwater to keep it dry. Plumbers drain pipe glued is a good solution. Bags tape forget about it. And you have to measure. my god ground is deceptive.
This is my second video of yours I've watched since my recent subscription and I'm fascinated and enthusiastic to learn more. I came here because of Karl's appearance on Combat Story. By the way, we need Karl to come back for a part 2 Combat Story! Thank you Randy and Karl for everything.
I used to live in northern Wisconsin, and the only we found to work, was prior planning. By that I mean we buried our cache, but then we laid a sheet of foam down that was about six inches deep but overlapped the cache by three feet all the way around. The frost line would need to drive down six inches, then under the foam another three feet to freeze the ground where our cache was which it wouldn't do. Now all we had to do was dig down into six inches of frozen ground, still a pain, and then hit the foam and dig through it and under the foam was soft ground. It's a little extra work, but it makes retrieving so much easier, and when your average year-round temp is in the forty-degree range, chances of you needing to dig in cold weather are pretty high. Plus keep in mind, just because it's warm outside and even in the 70's, that ground is STILL frozen once you break the surface. So, for us, it was worth the extra effort. Keep up the great work.
Same way you dig grave in winter. Dig as deep as you can. Make a small fire, let that thaw out the ice. Some say a metal trough helps, others say use oil and let it soak in for a moment before lighting. Repeat ad nausea (you will get sick of this game very quickly). Trick is, you have to get below frost line when you place it, or it will get pushed up like a rock and/or crushed. Vertical placement is better, augers are noiser than post hole diggers, but either one you may find bedrock. If a long skinny cache, you might have to cut off the top and leave the tube behind, so bag everything and put a cord on it- numbered tags help you pull them out in order. Or use an outter tube around the cache, but that gets complicated. Glue the ends, don't play around with screw on or ice will work it's way in. Best is to glue it then put on several layers of paint to be sure every gap is sealed.
There are enough parks, powerlines, and railroads around me that finding a location isn't an issue. Not attracting attention burying something is a different story.
Nice. Always interested in this sort of material from you. I got a good idea from cache #1: bury in the rain, then everything dries out the same, and the spot will NEVER look different than the surrounding area. EDIT: Oh, and..."cachet" is when you're wearing high heels (lol); cache is when you bury stuff.
Also, I will note that, while I myself have not yet placed any caches (mainly because my present location is unsuitable for digging of any sort), I have given the method plenty of thought. A vertically sunk PVC pipe is the best choice overall, because it requires the least amount of soil disruption and provides the smallest target for a metal detector. You can either use a screw cap on the pipe or cemented endcaps with filler designed to be sawed off. A 6 inch diameter PVC pipe will fit a whole AR15 if broken down into component halves. Just make sure you put plenty of desiccant inside, and use an auger size bigger than the pipe diameter, as there will be some soil collapse after extraction.
Here is a few tips I have learned! (1) Dogs can smell! No gun oil, nothing fragrant, no candy, no food, no anything like that with your important items. Minimize when you need it. Use oils with no scents. (2) No fingerprints! (3) Preferably not on your own property. Preferably not on someone else's property either. Aka both have drawbacks, depends on situation! (4) COMMON weapons and calibers only. (5) Oil, oil, oil. The right oil. You had the time to dig it up, you have the time to clean it. So oil and clean it on retrieve! (6) If you bury on a road that has no chance of getting paved over, it is easier to conceal the gravel disturbance vs soil or God forbid grass. (7) Deeper you go, less soil freeze effects items temperature wise. Have to add a h20 absorber no matter what. (8) Have a covert bag with you to conceal items after retrieval. (9) You will forget distances unless they are important numbers. Numbers important to you can be guessed. You will have to figure out a system to balance those. (10) Satelites, GPRadar, Metal D's and dogs are your main enemies. (11) Bury during cloud cover. Preferably a storm. (12) Don't record location. Encrypt it. Use a system. (13) Ropes get lost. (14) Don't count on any one cache not being found. Diversify. (15) Make the cache able to be retrievd by someone else in case you are delayed. (16) Beware what else you leave. Don't accidentally drop a single round. (17) Nuclear war and bombing can effectively change things drastically. Be aware nukes will cause fires. Bombs craters. (18) Beware water tables and flooding. (19) Don't bury too deep or shallow. (20) Study how the land has already changed over time from photo and satellite data. (21) Make that hole good when you leave. Leaving a hole open or unpacked means they have a starting point to backtrack you. There is more and better ideas but I don't trust everyone. :)
Thank you for your knowledge and sharing your knowledge and skills! I appreciate it, so many people think I’m nuts for doing caches but it’s something I’m passionate about and I’m learning a lot from y’all thank you again. And thank you for your service! Much luv from down da bayou ❤️✌️
There were several parasite commercials attached to this episode. As you know these are your best non shooting videos. Keep up the communication Radio Free Karl!
I also like using large interstate structures like remote overpasses or bridge supports as a start point for my cache report. Great video, thanks Karl and Chief . RLTW
i swear things move after you put them in the ground after a year or so!!!! LOL i like the string/compass idea you have!! thanks for sharing & be safe..
I once dug up a hole to bury my cache when I accidentally found someone else's bigger cache with nicer things in the same hole. Switched them up and went on to bury my new nicer cache somewhere else.
Great video cachets are a great idea! I would think about investing in a vacuum packed sealer. You can get one roll that would be big enough to even vacuum seal that lever action. I know a lot of people are going to have different opinions about this and that’s OK but depending one what happens in the world we may still have our phones may still have GPS and you can always get a $25 Apple GPS to put in your cachets.
Caches are great to have but burying it horizontally is a big no no. Too easy to stumble across if someone is out using a metal detector. Bury it vertically and when covering it up cover it with about 6”-8” of dirt, then place a large flat rock directly over the end of the cache tube on top of that dirt. Then add another few inches of dirt and a layer of crushed flat aluminum cans. Then another 4”-6” of dirt. That way if someone is metal detecting they’ll pick up the cans and not your cache, dig up the cans and probably move on. The flat rock will block out the detectors ability to locate the cache. Placement of caches at exit ramp signs is a good method too.
Great video fellow patriot. Very good and useful info. Any video with mr wurst is very good. I will be using the info for cashes on my property. God bless.
I looked up data on how deep gamma rays would penetrate soil and it looks like you got to go a minimum of five inches, however much deeper is better, of course. So, you have to either put your electronics in Faraday bags or go deeper to eliminate any chance of radiation killing your phone, ham radio, weather radio, smart lights, batteries, etc. This is if America was hit with an EMP.
I like to put firearms in some kind of sealed bag and pour some motor oil in it before sealing it it makes it nearly impossible for rust unless it’s there for years and years
We need a cache of all the tactical rifleman videos in case the commies decide to go full tropic thunder on us. As usual great information from great Americans, thanks Karl!
Who are these "commies" you are referring to? Labour rights activists who fought and bled for your ability to have a life outside of work? Mutual aid activists who help the vulnerable get critical supplies? You gonna start an insurgency against your local food bank?
I bought several rifle length VCI rust inhibitor bags- Do they protect? Can I grease or heavy oil the metal parts that will reside within the bags? Or is it better to store them dry? Can y’all talk about attic storage of firearms?
Cosmoline works great (heat it until it liquifies, 180 degrees, and dip the whole gun in it), but axle grease or 90 weight gear oil are good substitutes.
Damn dood randy is dedicated. Randy foreseen a time when compasses headlamps and peanuts might be outlawed by the atf. If you would have said this a couple years I wouldn't have believed it but now days I would say the atf is on the path Randy forseen
Remember, never bury anything long term you can't afford to lose. Sometimes they get found, sometimes they leak. But I dig the idea about adding ash for bug repellent. I've often wondered if it might be worthwhile to try to transfer fire ants on top of a cache. 😈Also, never cache on a floodplain! Big fan of the "house cache"- something near the house, but far enough away that you won't lose it if your place burns. Thumb drive with encrypted files for your insurance and finacial paperwork, eyeglasses scrip and medical records, a spare set of keys for things like the car and any storage lockers, cash, some trade jewelry, a spare EDC set for everyone, and of course a noisy cricket or two with its stuff. I like a raised bed or a planter so even in winter you can get to it and if the neighbors see you screwing with it two or three times a year, you're just futzing with your plants.
So question from the conventional guy in the back, why no pack like such as draw string bag in the cache? Also is there possibility of considerations for above ground caches for those in Arctic climates?
You say potato I say potaatao Karl leave Randy alone! Stop trying to crush his feminine side 🥴 Great info for all not just pipe hitters. Lot of Kentuckians wishing they had few essentials. Would love to see Randy do episode w/guest Josh Enyart.

Take batteries out of optics and flashlight. They can go bad and corrosion will destroy them.
Always include a water purification method, a way to start fire, razor blades, P38, pain relievers, compass, candle basic multi tool.

(5) Oil, oil, oil. The right oil. You had the time to dig it up, you have the time to clean it. So oil and clean it on retrieve!
(6) If you bury on a road that has no chance of getting paved over, it is easier to conceal the gravel disturbance vs soil or God forbid grass.
(7) Deeper you go, less soil freeze effects items temperature wise. Have to add a h20 absorber no matter what.
(8) Have a covert bag with you to conceal items after retrieval.
(9) You will forget distances unless they are important numbers. Numbers important to you can be guessed. You will have to figure out a system to balance those.
(10) Satelites, GPRadar, Metal D's and dogs are your main enemies.
(11) Bury during cloud cover. Preferably a storm.
(12) Don't record location. Encrypt it. Use a system.
(13) Ropes get lost.
(14) Don't count on any one cache not being found. Diversify.
(15) Make the cache able to be retrievd by someone else in case you are delayed.
(16) Beware what else you leave. Don't accidentally drop a single round.
(17) Nuclear war and bombing can effectively change things drastically. Be aware nukes will cause fires. Bombs craters.
(18) Beware water tables and flooding.
(19) Don't bury too deep or shallow.
(20) Study how the land has already changed over time from photo and satellite data.
(21) Make that hole good when you leave. Leaving a hole open or unpacked means they have a starting point to backtrack you.

I once dug up a hole to bury my cache when I accidentally found someone else's bigger cache with nicer things in the same hole. Switched them up and went on to bury my new nicer cache somewhere else.
Great video cachets are a great idea! I would think about investing in a vacuum packed sealer. You can get one roll that would be big enough to even vacuum seal that lever action. I know a lot of people are going to have different opinions about this and that’s OK but depending one what happens in the world we may still have our phones may still have GPS and you can always get a $25 Apple GPS to put in your cachets.
Caches are very vital for SOF and survival. Good video 👍
Great view. Enjoyed the first looking forward to this!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Vacuum seal! Great video
Caches are great to have but burying it horizontally is a big no no. Too easy to stumble across if someone is out using a metal detector. Bury it vertically and when covering it up cover it with about 6”-8” of dirt, then place a large flat rock directly over the end of the cache tube on top of that dirt. Then add another few inches of dirt and a layer of crushed flat aluminum cans. Then another 4”-6” of dirt. That way if someone is metal detecting they’ll pick up the cans and not your cache, dig up the cans and probably move on. The flat rock will block out the detectors ability to locate the cache. Placement of caches at exit ramp signs is a good method too.
Great video fellow patriot. Very good and useful info. Any video with mr wurst is very good. I will be using the info for cashes on my property. God bless.
i learned something, i always used diatomaceous earth, now I'm gonna use wood ash & charcoal ash. 👍
Thanks for making that training video guys! That's good stuff!
Our pleasure!
Can you guys do a video on the candles and other thrifty type preps? Great video
Coming soon
Good stuff! Thanks for the share!!
I swear, Karl has the type of charisma that makes me willing to do anything he says. He’s a true leader.
I looked up data on how deep gamma rays would penetrate soil and it looks like you got to go a minimum of five inches, however much deeper is better, of course. So, you have to either put your electronics in Faraday bags or go deeper to eliminate any chance of radiation killing your phone, ham radio, weather radio, smart lights, batteries, etc. This is if America was hit with an EMP.
That's Randy's regency brisket rub. Noted!
Outstanding! Thanks Randy and Karl. We definitely need the recipe for the wax candles. ✌
Coming soon!
I like to put firearms in some kind of sealed bag and pour some motor oil in it before sealing it it makes it nearly impossible for rust unless it’s there for years and years
Terrible for optics and electronics... you should rethink this point
Love it! Keep the info coming guys!
This was excellent!
Great info! Thanks guys!
Watching this and thinking about my best friend, they called him the V. Man do I miss that guy.
BTW, are those caches ADA compliant?! I might have to sue. 😜
We need a cache of all the tactical rifleman videos in case the commies decide to go full tropic thunder on us. As usual great information from great Americans, thanks Karl!
Who are these "commies" you are referring to? Labour rights activists who fought and bled for your ability to have a life outside of work? Mutual aid activists who help the vulnerable get critical supplies?
You gonna start an insurgency against your local food bank?
Awesome video thanks for putting this stuff out there!
Great vid guys! Thank you
Thank you for the great video. Gave me a lot to think about
Thanks for watching, TR
Great information 👍🏾
Excellent video 👌👏💪
Great job
Randy, thanks for the info. Very useful.
Glad it was helpful!
I bought several rifle length VCI rust inhibitor bags- Do they protect? Can I grease or heavy oil the metal parts that will reside within the bags? Or is it better to store them dry? Can y’all talk about attic storage of firearms?
Cosmoline works great (heat it until it liquifies, 180 degrees, and dip the whole gun in it), but axle grease or 90 weight gear oil are good substitutes.
@@chadedwards7072 Chad I really like 90 wt Diff oil.
Very well done Karl…as usual.
Glad you enjoyed it
Damn dood randy is dedicated. Randy foreseen a time when compasses headlamps and peanuts might be outlawed by the atf. If you would have said this a couple years I wouldn't have believed it but now days I would say the atf is on the path Randy forseen
Remember, never bury anything long term you can't afford to lose. Sometimes they get found, sometimes they leak. But I dig the idea about adding ash for bug repellent. I've often wondered if it might be worthwhile to try to transfer fire ants on top of a cache. 😈Also, never cache on a floodplain!
Big fan of the "house cache"- something near the house, but far enough away that you won't lose it if your place burns. Thumb drive with encrypted files for your insurance and finacial paperwork, eyeglasses scrip and medical records, a spare set of keys for things like the car and any storage lockers, cash, some trade jewelry, a spare EDC set for everyone, and of course a noisy cricket or two with its stuff. I like a raised bed or a planter so even in winter you can get to it and if the neighbors see you screwing with it two or three times a year, you're just futzing with your plants.
So question from the conventional guy in the back, why no pack like such as draw string bag in the cache? Also is there possibility of considerations for above ground caches for those in Arctic climates?
Winter retrieval when there is 3 or 4 feet of frost in the ground?
You say potato I say potaatao
Karl leave Randy alone! Stop trying to crush his feminine side 🥴
Great info for all not just pipe hitters. Lot of Kentuckians wishing they had few essentials.
Would love to see Randy do episode w/guest Josh Enyart.
Good stuff guys
Randy might be a nutbag, but he's the kind we like lol
