    Ethical “Time of Flight” for Shot on Game

    That’s just what you tell yourself to feel better.

    Ethical “Time of Flight” for Shot on Game

    I agree. All the big talk about what great long range shots people are and then they are proud of just lobbing rounds down range. Long range forums are full of guys who could care less how many animals they gut shoot, or how many rounds before they connect. Every time the animal doesn’t go...

    Pricing an antique automobile

    Classic car guys are knit pickers - some things stand out like a sore thumb, like the air conditioning compressor not having the correct pulley. It’s so dirty, it’s hard to see the condition, but anyone who’s had a gloss black hot rod will say anywhere there’s been a handprint in the dust will...

    Pricing an antique automobile

    Yep, a classic car auction. Hot August nights brings a big classic hot rod audience to Reno if you still have the car by then. There’s always a big auction.

    That is pretty nice, especially with Easter coming up 🙂

    Liberation Day

    I think it’s funny so many people still believe the party line that this is a good idea. It’s such a bad idea the presentation was scheduled after markets closed. It’s such a bad idea it had to be lied about during the election or he would have never been elected. When you have to lie and...

    small business and social media platforms

    I didn’t realize you were a chef when I wrote the thing above. I doubt any of it applies to what you do. The one personal chef I’ve known gets booked through an app like Table at Home.

    small business and social media platforms

    I used to be in nicer than average remodels and new construction, and agree some don’t get much out of spending time on it, but a few do. One friend probably loses money on his social media because he comes across like an asshat. Another guy I did some work for pays a friend of his son to post...

    Liberation Day

    If they were serious about bringing manufacturing jobs back, they’d spend 100% of the money made with tariffs to provide trade school training to anyone who wants it. Trade schools should have always been something we invested in. Why it’s valuable for snot nose kids to learn a language they...

    Liberation Day

    The idea that drug makers will bring production back to the us is a pipe dream. Raw material prices of drugs is such a low percentage of what consumers pay, 25% tariff of almost nothing is still almost nothing. I think you’ve been sold on the idea the enemy is the Starbucks on the corner or...

    Liberation Day

    Tariffs are a nationwide sales tax. It seems expected to be the largest tax increase in our lifetimes. It doesn’t sound bad when it’s effects haven’t been felt yet, but Americans are quick to avoid pain and it won’t end well. One of the quickest ways to go broke is over building during...

    Review of the Walkingpod

    I’m buying one for a stoner friend. Cheech and Chong couldn’t have come up with a better design! lol

    Use of Powder Dispensers vs Powder Droppers??

    Maybe it’s like how people usually have a fondness for where they grew up over all others - it may not be ideal by any metric that can be thought up, but it feels like home. Pushing a button like a vending machine doesn’t feel right. I increased the enjoyment of throwing charges a little bit...

    Gunsmith bedded stock - cant remove action

    What a bummer I actually know what I’m talking about. lol You aren’t wrong there being a lever, but the amount of force is not a lot. Action screws create how much clamping force at 60 inch pounds of torque? 1,400 lbs, 1,500 lbs? 1,500 lbs cantilevered less than 1/4” pulls up how hard on the...
