    Suppressors TBAC muzzle device options

    I have never had a stuck suppressor (ultra 7 or 9) on my CB brakes. Range trip or a day of high volume prairie dog shooting. I don’t use grease or anything on the threads. (Maybe I should?) It makes me wonder what is going on. Have you checked with TBAC?

    Anyone use a professional money/investment manager? What has been your experience?

    My opinion, use a Fiduciary. They are required to act in your best interest and don’t sell products. I used a local advisor whose company was bought by Mercer. They advise you and you pick growth/risk level you want to take. I feel they tend to be more conservative than needed, and would adjust...

    AAAAARRRRRGGGGGHHHHHH! FIRE ANTS!

    You must be new to the south. They suck and you will not get rid of fire ants. You just manage the number. The queens will fly and establish new colonies - usually right before a rain. For an isolated mound you can buy a powder to treat. Best bet is to do your entire yard with the products that...

    Another question about aging parents

    I have several friends with “elderly” (80 and 90 range)parents with horror stories regarding scams, issues with houses, driving, etc. Some of their children are too busy to help. So it has me thinking at what point do I involve them in my finances. Being MEN we ain’t going to let go easily! (94...

    How Often and Under What Circumstances To Check Zero?

    Well, I could get my kestrel out and check but the combination of elevation, humidity, altitude, 14 to 24 hours in a truck (4 rifles each not in pelican cases), and the fact that most shots are 250 yards plus on very small baby prairie dogs, I check zero. And I do notice a difference. As far as...

    How Often and Under What Circumstances To Check Zero?

    For a match, check before. I mostly hunt. Reasons I check zero: Travel to a different altitude/distant location. (Eg Louisiana to CO for elk or prairie dogs) Rifle is dropped/bumped. A missed shot on a decent sized target that should have been a hit. (Deer) Start of the hunting season.

    Maggie’s Farm ATVs

    Truck - will work, but MS will be muddy. We stopped allowing trucks since they make a mess of our fire lanes and roads. Plus UTVs are so fun!

    Maggie’s Farm ATVs

    I’ve had a Yamaha Rhino for 16 years and my bil had a Kawasaki mule and now a Polaris. Personally I like the better seats and suspension on the Yamaha, but he has been happy with his. Equipment obviously depends on use. Our place is a pine tree farm in Hinds county MS. We ride through the woods...

    What did you do in the reloading room today?

    Nothing! What you do when the daughter and grandchildren come to visit and take over your reloading room for a 4 month old.😅😂
