    We made it all the way through Louisiana, and somewhere mid Mississippi we needed gas. Same thing happened, nobody looked like me. Texas plates on the Tahoe, and I paid at the pump. Moved the Tahoe to a parking spot in front and went inside to pee and get some caffeine. I saw a lineman bucket...

    Brass sometimes get stuck in chamber in bolt rifle

    Piece of shit extractor design. And an ejection spring that is too small in diameter and too short. Savages shoot well, if you can the damn things to cycle.

    Something kicking off in Israel

    Short version of the story. I had a guy inside my fence, in my front yard, and in the dark at 0500 one morning. He had to hop over the 4' tall pipe fence to be there. I addressed him with sights on his back, and light shining from behind me to him. He did an about face and never stepped forward...

    I told my wife I'd like to move to middle of nowhere west Texas. She said "you don't know anyone there." I said, I will end up knowing everyone worth knowing. She asked how. I said you find out where all the old men gather up in the morning drinking coffee. That is where the knowledge is...

    The armor on the top is protecting an aftermarket roof A/C, the previous owner built. I bought it with 640 hours on it. $28K less than a new one, at the time.

    Rifle range to the left. And this damn Grove of trees makes one long hay field into two. I took down the little ones with a Skid Pro shredder on the Kubota. Then went to a Stihl MS 362 for the +8" trees. Mass killing and I feel no remorse for it. Ash ain't the greatest firewood, but it will...

    I made chili last week with South Texas Nilgai meat.

    Historically Savages cycle like shit, but shoot well. The ole Savage double stroke trying to get a round chambered. Then the weak ass ejection spring. I've installed about seven ejector springs in two actions, and still own one action. I finally gave up and let it not eject. It's a 3 day a year...

    No way do loading components retain any value. No way can a guy resell any of it. Some people do not have as much quit in them as you do. One pound of powder at $50 is likely going to be cheaper than any barrel. Find a combo that works and have to change lot numbers, because he only bought...

    Yes I do. Can they be made to produce shooting 300 WSM ammo? Of course. But they are not my first choice. On safe ammo, they are probably not producing a high case fill. In my experience, with the long action magnums as well as the short magnums, filling the brass is a good thing. Of course...

    ^^Another good response. I forgot to write that. And action screw torque is 65 in/lbs final. Unless it's a soft composite, laminate, or wood stock. Then you're going to need pillars. I've got an old Sako torn down right now. The rear pillar was not epoxied in the stock and it didn't have a...

    Start over. If you dropped it off to me, here's what I would do. Clean the barrel. During cleaning I would figure out your twist rate. Probably a 1:10, but we cannot assume. Check torque on all screws. Action screws, scope and rings off and check the pic rail screws. Scope and rings back on and...

    Four scenarios.

    Yes it will be ruled by Christ. So it doesn't matter what human Jew is "in charge" until then.

    Four scenarios.

    That is correct. And the most important part, the hatred and fighting will never end. Not until the second coming of Christ. It is written. And it is also written, Isreal will always be the victor, and be blessed. So, anyone wanting to pick the winning horse. The race has already been...

    Four scenarios.

    This goes back to the Old Testament. Abraham and Sara Abraham bred Sara's maidservant, Hagar and produced Ishmael. 13 years later Sara produced Isaac. Hagar and Ishmael were banished to the desert. Ishmael is the first one responsible for the Muslim religion. Genesis 16 11 The angel of...

    I think it was Horsepower TV. They started with a bone stock engine with a 1 barrel carb. They dynoed it at 83 horse power. Then they built it up in four stages. The last stage was ridiculous with custom fabricated plumbing for a turbo. It crossed the 400 horse power line.

    As an outsider looking in, what I've always wanted to find is a Jeep with no engine. Do a frame-off, and Un-Fuck whatever AMC or Chrysler did. Then install a Ford 300 I-6. And of course a manual transmission. As one YouTube engine builder said "after the nuclear apocalypse there will be...

    I lived in a 1967 built house for 19 years. Dad and I added onto it when my wife got pregnant. Remodeled the bedroom I used to use as our bedroom. Then remodeled the living room. My wife said "let's remodel that hall bath". I told her alright, but know this going into it. We will see the earth...
