    AR15 Upgrade priority for precision

    Absolutely. My Rock River has a Wilson 1/8 Wylde barrel, free floated handguard and a RRA two-stage trigger. With a Nikon Monarch 6.5-20 it will shoot 1/2MOA at 200yds reliably with 77gr HSM Matchkings. I would(did) just buy a Rock River Varmint or Predator Pursuit and go shooting

    vacuum sealer uses beyond Meat processing/Storage....?

    I have vac-sealed spare beanie and wool socks for the bottom of my pack, they will be dry when I need them. I would also seal game bags, anything dry and bulky.

    Kitchen Mixer? Mother's day help!

    Kitchenaid HD was on sale at Costco for $100 off...$299. That's what I bought. It's the bowl-lift model. Great piece to have.

    Rokslide Formula 1 Fans

    This aged like fine milk....My buddy and I were comparing this to the Michael Schumaker era then, here comes Lando! Great race, lots of passing. Much better entertainment.

    Need some help on a new scope.

    For hunting, I would want the 3X low end. I'm shopping Meopta Optika 6 in SFP for range and hunting. My experience with Meopta is the glass and tracking are excellent.

    Vehicles, you can fix?

    I've done dozens of VW/Audi oil changes with a vacuum extractor. Need a 36mm socket for the cartridge oil filter.

    2 parter! I am glad I am not single, and why does every single woman think they are a 10?

    My kid is the most rewarding part(relic) of my marriage. I would have been divorced years ago if I didn't have to go on a parenting plan and be a part-time dad. My only regret to him is that he never saw an example of a healthy, loving marriage. Other than that, he got a great upbringing and is...

    New Trucks....

    I do. I grew up in the Rust Belt. Changing points and a rotor, expect to add 1 qt of oil every 6 weeks. I much prefer modern cars.

    New Trucks....

    At a minimum, it's overwattage amber fogs on ALL THE TIME and an energy drink decal on the back window.

    Vehicles, you can fix?

    I've done some minor wrenching on my 2015 F150...Plugs, filters(not tranny), shocks, boost pressure regulator...Brake rotors and pads are pretty simple on most modern vehicles. I replaced a lot of parts on my 2006 Tacoma which is pretty much the same up to 2023...Rear leaf packs, shocks, speed...

    Best 10x $250 binoculars

    Wow. I returned a Nikon Monarch riflescope two years ago, after they had exited the pewpew business and got a check for MSRP. These were covered under Lifetime Monarch warranty, not 7 years. I wonder if that made any difference. They didn't ask for any documentation, either.

    I would look for used Nikon Monarchs in 10X.

    The sunglasses-what tint?

    This. I was doing a lot of winter steelhead fishing in Western Washington where typical conditions were dark gray rain. I needed only to take the glare off the water. Light amber was best for those conditions. Now I'm in the Bitterroot Valley of Montana and I will look to get a darker...

    2024 Tacoma- anyone bought one, drove one—thoughts?

    The LSD on the Sport model does not play nice with M1 or other synthetics. Castrol dino oil and one bottle of Toyota friction modifier for the win.

    Cookware

    An old Lodge 12" cast iron, mostly used for steaks. Two Matfer Bourgeat 10" and 12" that I've had mixed results. Doesn't help that I moved from a nice 36" gas range to a shitty induction range.

    2024 Tacoma- anyone bought one, drove one—thoughts?

    I think yours falls into the frame rust recall and leaf spring recall. My 2006 Tacoma had holes in the frame just under the 10mm spec that Toyota spec'd for replacement. I'm so glad I got out of it before it got worse. FYI

    2024 Tacoma- anyone bought one, drove one—thoughts?

    The 3.5l is the Camry engine, installed in the Tacoma starting 2015. There might be some 200k examples but in most people's mind, the earlier 4.0 was a better match for doing truck stuff, due to more torque at lower revs.

    non factory coyote calibers

    6x45 was going to be my suggestion. Endless supply of brass and bullet selection.
