43? here with similar forecast.
Gonna spread some Red Breeze this morning then spend rest of day abusing the small berm in my back yard and finishing up some builds/mods and get sighted in.
I'm waiting to hear back from a guy who is selling off his late dad's items. He had a machine shop and the son just wants to unload everything. One of the gunsmiths in the area said they did a good job of cleaning him out last week.Quote:

The high powered rounds are rough on the little berm designed for rimfire.
Did a little work to it yesterday to try and mitigate the close range high powered use.
A guy always needs parts and tools.[emoji106]Quote:

Mowed........hoefully only one more time after the leaves fall and ill be done for the year.
On my way to the range I went to Murdochs and wanted to buy the BirchCasey 8" plate with stand. Money in hand, hey where is the plate. Oh that, sorry sold out a while ago. When are you getting it in? Not sure whenever our buyer something something..
Sigh. Remind me again what these stores are in business for?
Obc better keep a parts list brudda!
Erni I've got nothing bro
Perfect morning to do some rc flying, damn i need to get the memberships covered so i can try to have some fun with all the stuff i have. Been 3 years since i flown any fixed wing stuff and over 2 for quads......
Glorious weather today. You guys are wearing me out with everything you've been doing. Took the pupper to the vet this morning for more shots and shhhtuff. He threw up in my fairly new truck...again. 3 times. I told my wife that I'm going to have to rename my truck to "The Vomit Comet". Doggo is tired/stressed out and so are we.
I've been binge watching Babylon 5 and Justified on Amazon with my wife. We never watched Justified when it was originally on and my wife had never seen B 5 before. It took about 5 episodes for her to get hooked on B 5.
Lucked out, "gravel" went down quick and easy. Was on the range by 1030 and finished by 1230, finally a good range day all around. Both rifles run like they should, on paper and ready to go rifle distance.Quote:

Random thought after looking through the trading post...
Is reloading dying off or is the economy just that poor?
Some damn good deals on nice presses, and they aren't getting snapped up like I would have expected.
I guess the third option would be that everyone already has their reloading setups and doesn't see a need to upgrade...
Who knows, just thinking out loud...
Shit, I haven't looked in there for a while now. Your guess is as good as any I suppose, I already have duplicate single stage stuff and many dies as well.
Also, all my stuff is in storage and worthless to me for the last couple of years. Need to get it all set up again this winter.
Got the shocks completed today, and the brake lines as well. And trimmed out the carpet on the back of the cab too.
I'm really getting tired of drilling large holes in frame rails though....probably the last time for a while, I hope. Just gotta get goo in the diffs and Tcase, bleed the brake system....and bang!!! ...take that thing on a test drive around the block for real and see how it feels. Check steering, acceleration, stopping, handling and all that. I'm pretty excited to do that.
Again, all I see is a grayed out little box.Quote:

It hurts my brain looking at the pitman arm...
That steering system does suck....but it should work.
It also hurts my brain looking at the pinion pointed up straight at the driveshaft. ???
CV on the other end?
Chris,
It all looks amazing. Anyone can tell you busted your ass on it.
No it's not. Just hard for some to justify reloading (from scratch) when you ca buy ammo for under $250 per thousand, delivered.Quote:

Yeah, we CV'd front and rear shafts. I did what the man told me do.Quote:

The OE system sucked to begin with, the drop pitman is kinda creepy...and I reverse chamfered the steering arm to go top side.
If any of this set up feels retarded or unsafe, I'll order a right side knuckle machined for an adjustable drag link above the springs.
I do have new front brake lines, just haven't installed them yet or made the mod for the rear line from the master. I'll do that stuff and get it bled.
Decent shot of those nerf bars.
