    Gunsmithing 22-250 Mag problems

    22-250 is one of my favorites. I'm right there w ya on the mag issues. I think if you go to Ackley improved, it straightens the case wall and that might solve the problem. I have a straight 22-250 now that I'm pretty sure is shot out, and I'm leaning to the Ackley option. Already have everything...

    Need a hvac expert.

    If you're gonna go ground source, just do water-water and put tubing in the floor for radiant heat and then a hydro-coil air handler for cooling. 😆 🤣 😂 Seriously though, 12x16, give me a break. If you oversize a ductless unit, you'll likely have the btu needed to heat the space(especially at...

    Why would the plumber/builder do this...

    It's been 1/2" supply to 3 fixtures or bathroom group here for the short 20 years I've been plumbing here

    My Dog

    Had to endure similar ordeal just over a year ago. The ol boy was as tough as they come. There are no vets within 3hrs drive, much less any that take calls past 5pm, and we were in full shutdown at midnight. I had to finish things off after sending the kids and wife away, I am still not right...

    Firearms Remove

    Nope. The boy is of age now to shoot with dad, so he's taken a shine to this setup.

    Help with replacing my well pump please

    I've put in a few of these lately and they are pretty bad ass. Yeah, it's pretty spendy but it's a variable speed setup which in principle will far outlast a conventional setup https://www.wegotpumps.com/product/berkeley-intelliboost-multi-stage-vfd-boosting-pump/

    Best trigger for PRS style shooting

    I like the 2 stage just for adding another step to my firing process. My feeble mind needs the distraction from all the "what if's" 😆

    PRS Talk What bag to use??

    The guys at Manti do a good job, that's been a fun and challenging match every time I've been there. My preference on bags, and I have a pile of them including a few fortune cookies, is a game changer schmedium is the only one I'll grab if the house is on fire and I have to pick one to save.

    Older reloading Manuals

    I have an older Sierra manual, and it's data has served me well as a "max load" guideline when I'm comparing various specs. It was definitely pre-pussified-era

    Short action Elk rounds

    I just got a 7sst done, 22" benchmark carbon on a Terminus Apollo Lite action. 175gr berger elite hunters going 2920-2940fps. It's a hot ass load for sure, and I'll more than likely back it down to the next stable charge weight of rl26, but I smoked my ram this year at 780yds, softball size...

    Fuel mileage from heavy duty trucks

    I'd argue wtf is the difference? Could it be considered even more "unsafe" that a 16yr old can get into a 40 foot long 10ton motorhome with nothing more than their standard issue driver's license? I guess if the DOT can collect more money, that makes it safer.

    Does anyone have experience with Carvana?

    I was pretty disappointed in our recent carmax dealing, 180deg from the previous business I had with them, enough so that I feel bad having recommended them here. Took 1 1/2 hours for them to lowball an offer to us, all the while groups of employees sitting around playing on phones, groups...

    What Artery Did That Hit???

    This was the bloodiest arrow I've ever had. Went fairly high in the lungs, but full pass-through. Looked like a 30yd long murder scene

    Does anyone have experience with Carvana?

    Oddly enough, we are at a carmax now getting a vehicle appraised. Plan is to use their offer as leverage on a deal we are committed to on a new rig. Dealers might pay more, but then you gotta wade through their slime and argue your way out of their clutches. Carmax could give a shit either way.

    Does anyone have experience with Carvana?

    It's easy enough to just enter the vehicle info on their site. I got about 2-3k over what I expected in trade. They listed it 2 days later for 3k more than they paid me.

    Does anyone have experience with Carvana?

    I sold a car to carmax not long ago. Did their "appraisal" online, which sometimes you'll get an offer and others you'll have to take the car in to one of their locations. I did get an online offer, went to a location, they took about 2 hours, but walked out with a check for the amount they...

    Fuel mileage from heavy duty trucks

    We have a gooseneck tilt bed to haul a Cat 305 mini ex, its 7-7.5 tons alone. My 3500 has no problems towing it around, but happened to get a deal on a 2013 d-max dually that I use to move that around, especially out of town jobs. The dually gets 10-12 empty or loaded, I'm guessing it's geared...
