    Kubota vs John Deere

    Just did the comparison between the both and bought the JD. I have had my current Jd with a Yanmar engine for over 40 years with no issues. I didn't like the treadle on the Kubota at all. I think the Kubota has a nicer transmission, the JD has planetary gears in rear end. Both have pros and...

    Franklin universal bullet seating die

    I have one. It works nice. But if you don't have consistent neck tension and don't do a good job on your brass you still won't get good results.

    What's the deal with everyone using suppresors?

    Scope dope done not match??

    So sat down and did a hard look at data. Thinking my altitude was off a bit and my humidity. Did some comparison with past data and found a couple mistakes. So did 4 charts tonight but will double check data in the morning. How does one get a parametric pressure for someplace you don't live...

    Scope dope done not match??

    So I know my speed, my BC. and my yardage. I put in all the correct specs, altitude, humidity, pressure and scope height. Yet still when I dial it's not correct. What am I missing?? Live at 1250 and need to make a dope sheet for altitude but don't feel very confident in doing so when things are...

    Mountain Truck setups

    I have a set because I seem to get stuck a lot coyote hunting in MN. I push it to hard often and thought they would help. NOPE, they are a joke and absolutely not worth it.

    300wsm Ridgeline won’t group at 200

    Bumping shoulders
