    Small Bullets (.224) and BIG game

    The viability of smaller calibers on big game has been pretty well hashed out at this point. I cant imagine there's too many forum frequenters left who haven't formulated their opinion even in light of the rokslide threads. My favorite rifle to carry deer hunting is my Ruger Ranch 5.56 and it...

    Metalworking Hunttalkers!

    Needed to get some reinforcements on my pipe rack so I started it yesterday but couldn't finish. Crazy wind today so I had to break out the stick welder. Got it finished though.

    2026 Garden

    It was 80 two days ago, lows around 20 the next 2 days so I am going to keep the lettuce transplants inside for a few more days before planting.

    Metalworking Hunttalkers!

    Yeah I like running it on bigger stuff that I dont care about aesthetics for since I don't have a shop. Other than that though I dont really care for it. Never had a chance to run much dual shield at work either.

    Metalworking Hunttalkers!

    Neighbor brought over some stuff and asked for a hand after finding out that flux core is a pain on thin stuff. Got to practice some torch cutting as well.

    Metalworking Hunttalkers!

    Got a call from the friend who has me weld the transmission drums asking if I could build him a couple carts similar to what they have in the shop but improved for their purposes. Drew it up and got the green light so I'll go pick up material today and hopefully get them built and delivered next...

    New threat to 2nd A?

    Didn't know there were so many Tories here. Yall would simp so hard for the red coats. If you think the protestors in MN are bad, you have no idea the kind of political violence it took to get this nation born.

    2026 Garden

    Well now I'm in the camp of yall cold weather people I guess. Garden beds covered in snow/ice since Saturday and another wave coming this weekend. Barely above freezing most days. Just when I was getting excited about getting peas and potatoes in.

    Winter storm binge watch’s

    About an inch of snow and sleet here, no appreciable ice yet. Second wave of moisture coming through this afternoon may bring some but we'll see. Life's good here though.

    When does the fever hit you? (Buck fever)

    With deer its before because there's usually a period of waiting for the shot to present itself. With turkeys its after because there's so much going through my head trying to make the right decision on calling and waiting and so often the bird appears suddenly. But once he starts flopping and I...

    Winter storm binge watch’s

    Latest call for us is 1.5" of snow and sleet followed by .6" of ice. Not good, especially with forecast lows Monday of 6. I'm sure I'll be binge watching Bluey again, though I also plan to watch the fireplace while picking on my guitar.
