    Scope has more elevation than it should?

    Well thats better than having your Mils get lost in your Leupold. https://www.snipershide.com/shooting/threads/the-leupold-mark5-claims-34-9-mils-of-adjustment-but-the-turret-clearly-only-travels-from-0-to-30.7103241/

    Darwin visits my house.

    I got my thumb caught between a D32 diesel hammer (about 35k #) and a driven HPile. It burst the tip of my thumb off between the first joint and nail while about 60' deep in the ground. It didn't really hurt much with the adrenaline running to get up the ladder. It sure looked like it hurt...

    I need some help

    I have seen where the Bell and Carlson stocks did more bad than good. Check and make sure your barrel isnt touching. Im assuming shooting off a bipod? Put in in a table, load the bipod and see if your barrel still clears. Is the scope base stock? Maybe oil under the base. I have never had a...

    Can anyone figure out this problem eith CAT D3?

    Anything after a cable dozer and before electronics. A case 450G is also a fantastic little dozer they are pretty bullet proof and cheaper than a 3.

    Can anyone figure out this problem eith CAT D3?

    On a 3 there is usually no maintenance. Keep the tracks adjusted, grease, and oil. They will run forever. However its pretty time consuming taking in a project more than landscaping with an old 3.

    Can anyone figure out this problem eith CAT D3?

    Looks to me like that plug is cut to have a 1/2 drive socket inserted for removal like most final drive checks or fills. Have you taken that plug out? Could be as simple as an o ring that has gone out beind the plug face.

    Night Vision Best NOD helmet for the money?

    Definately this. HHV does have a new ballistic helmet made in USA coming, hopefully they actually get it tested instead of in house testing. However, I do have some trust in them in less than professional use. They make no claims trying to hide what they have or who builds it. I believe they...

    Night Vision Best NOD helmet for the money?

    Well the most comfortable bump I have tried is an HHV. Wish it had a ratchet retention. TW is pretty comfortable with 4D pads, OPS core was terrible, didnt try any pads. I dont have or have ever tried a ballistic.

    Lightweight full function AR for night hunting

    Change to thermal for sure. You can lose almost all the accessories. Maybe tape a candy stick battery somewhere. So you could be around 7 lbs easy.

    Any structural engineers around?

    There were probably 5 of these minimum on an 18'-20' wide bridge. Possibly flat timber deck, but more than likely corrugated steel. They were on some type of foundation(you dont have), and had something keeping them together(you dont have), acting as a unit instead of singular beam, and to...

    Any structural engineers around?

    I'm just a bridge builder that has done 60+ all steel bridges. This is not gonna turn out well. You at a minimum need to put these on a footing, size depends on the soil type. Then at a minimum, 2 of similar size beams under each tire tack. Id recommend W12x42. Tie all these beams together...

    22-250 for coyotes

    The only one Im aware of that is twisted fast enough for a 75 (unless its a short fat cup and core) is a Ruger American. Idk if they offer it anymore, and its a Ruger American. If you pick up a Tikka donor or Mac Bros you could easily build inside that price though.
