    Does anyone board horses for passive income on your land?

    Our place was set up as a horse property when we bought it, the first thing I did was remove all of the gates and fencing infrastructure in and around the pole barn. The 2nd thing I did was get a homeowners policy that doesn’t allow large animals. This simplifies and prevents a lot of issues.

    For the Vehicle Mechanics

    I haven't heard of it in the 4.8's, but there was a run of 5.3's in that generation that had wrist pin issues. I had one in a suburban, started ticking, ran fine, but there was a constant tick. At first I thought it was a lifter and went through all the youtube stuff to no avail. I sold it to a...

    Beginner Snowmobile-Complete noob

    I’ve got an old Skidoo I picked up from a guy that I call the Tundra 2.0 The guy that built it knew what he wanted and it translated in performance. It started out as a ‘98 skidoo 500 fan, the track and tunnel were stretched to 136” with a 1 1/2” paddle, it’s been geared down, has powder ski’s...

    Random question II- Windshield scraper

    I worked at a Ford dealer after school in highschool cleaning cars and sweeping floors. One day we had to bring a bunch of cars in to thaw them out and do a light clean up in January. We started them all and left them on defrost, being a kid and thinking I was smart I grabbed my scraper from my...

    Unconventional Reconnaissance Methods

    While hunting deer a few years ago I was out scouting new areas mid day and saw a smoker white tail buck chasing does on private. I got a few good pictures and video of him with my P900, but he wasn’t huntable. I took an 8 mile drive around to get to a public section a mile away and determined I...

    Scope Alignment Issue?

    Parallax had come to mind, this scope does not have a separate adjustment for parallax, and I have a vague understanding of the concept but not enough to know if 3-5” at 200 yards is in the realm of possibilities. When I did a brief search on my issue I came up with several other forum posts...

    Scope Alignment Issue?

    I see what you’re saying, they were torqued in the pattern and to the torque on the sheet in the box. 22 or 25 in lbs? I can’t remember off the top of my head. I had put a set of alignment pins in and torqued them and they lined up pretty nicely. Something is clearly off though,

    Scope Alignment Issue?

    Just grasping at straws and trying to figure out a scenario where it’s holding zero but shooting higher at 200 Than 100 yards. Going to have to put a few more rounds through it and probably hit up Leupold.

    Scope Alignment Issue?

    I’m guessing my windage is off to the left by an inch but the elevation is what’s throwing me off. The scope almost has to be sitting slightly higher than level to make this happen. Probably just going to have to start from zero again and double check the base and mounts.

    Scope Alignment Issue?

    Sooo, long story long. I picked up a Weatherby Vanguard in 300 Win mag last fall and put a Nikon 4.5x14 I had laying around on it and it shot well and everything was right in the world. Took it out this fall to shoot it and the scope wouldn't hold a zero. I had a bunch of Cabelas points so I...

    Do you hunt from home?

    I grew up with several hundred acres in the family surrounded by 10’s of thousands of acres of public ground I could be hunting on out the back door. Now I’m about 15-20 minutes away and we’ve been buying pieces of the family farm, hoping in the next 10 years to be physically back on that...

    Bear attack or homicide in Montana

    Has anyone figured the best time to buy and sell a truck?

    You’re probably in the sweet spot of those trucks, if it’s a good truck and you like it you may want to do some homework. It should be an aluminum body so you won’t have to fight body rust, you’ve owned it and you know what it is. Used stuff is a total crap shoot, doesn’t matter what it is. You...

    I'll give them a pass on chloride because the cost has gotten so out of hand, but their road maintenance program drives me nuts.
