  1. Definitely want one, but it's definitely not the best time to find the shotgun, let alone the ammo. Thinking my 12g is going to be used the next couple yrs before I can find a autoloader and ammo.
  2. Haven't gotten a single shot.. zero side-effects. Who would of thought this was possible......
  3. I bought a pallet of salt. Nephew has pile of sand for a few private roads he sands. I put two bags of salt in the spreader, than shovel some sand and mix it as I add more sand. I might add another bag of salt if needed. Got lazy last couple of storms, and filled the hopper with wet sand from his pile. Was a PITA trying to find unfrozen sand, lol. It worked with the sand, but I kept getting the jamed error code even with the vibrator on constantly. I Would have to spin the spreader plate by hand to get it freed up. I think it would work great with bagged sand, as long as its kept dry.
  4. Ok, that makes sense. Really don't know about the new shoots. If they don't sprout, wouldn't the new underbrush do the same? Is there something you could plant to help?
  5. Mine is 700 from the road to my shop. All uphill, the first 150' is the steepest. I had a spreader for my 3pt hitch on my tractor, but its a open station, and I hated it. I've got my own plow on my truck. Bought a used buyers saltdog TGS07 this fall and love it. I've run straight wet sand through it, but it will clog even with the vibrator on. Works great with a 50/50 salt sand mix. My nephews has a tri axle dump, so I get crusher run for cast plus fuel. Going to fabric my drive, and put 4" of crusher on top. But I need to cut the edges down so the drive is higher than the sides.
  6. If you really want them down, don't think its matters when you take them down.
  7. If I did the long range shooting you do, I would probably change the way I sight in or practice. Guess I'm just so used to shooting, sighting in my way, that changing anything now would just confuse me. Never liked the BDC reticle. Scope looks to cluttered.
  8. I'm the same. Most shots 100yds or less. I want the center of the reticel to be where the bullet goes. Every once in a while I get 250-300yrd shot. Time on the range behind the trigger makes those shots possible.
  9. Not sure. Buddy of mine is in the business. Got a great deal. I pd little under 5k in Nov '18.
  10. Good luck Cynthia. Sounds like you've got a few members in your area willing to help out.
  11. My furnace is oil and my hot water is electric. I plan on replacing the boiler with LP as well as the hot water tank. The mini splits will continue to do most of the heating, and all of the cooling.
  12. Don't recognize any names, but they are true heroes in my book, as well as all our former and present military are first responders.
  13. Its a lot of work. Cutting the firewood, tapping collecting. So easy to scorch a pan if your not paying attention.
  14. I really want a auto 20g turkey gun. Congrats on number 5.
  15. Lol, now that I can sink my teeth into. Pink Floyd is my favorite band.
  16. Went to a local sporting good auction this past Saturday. Everything went for stupid money. Just a couple examples.. Two mugs of Remington 22LR, 300 rds each, so 600 total went for $175. A ruger 10/22 stainless, birch stock with a cheap Sliver scope hammered for $550. The only rifle that went for decent money was a lefty Weatherby vanguard 308, I believe, for $700. I tried for some .40cal, but wasn't willing to pay the prices.
  17. 1300 sqf. The living and kitchen is fairly open. The larger BTU (think its a 7k) is in the living room facing the kitchen. Ceiling fan in LR helps a lot, but I hate ceiling fans, lol. Master has a 5k unit I believe. The master is at the opposite end of the house. During the night we keep our door closed. The other two bedrooms are fine as long as those doors are open. If someone was in those rooms with doors closed, they would definitely be on the cooler side. During the day, all doors are open, and the house balances out nicely. The pellet stove in the basement really helped this yr. Ours are heat and cooling.
  18. Sounds like you had a great season. We definitely learned a lot this yr. Its my friends first yr, and while I had experience running a evaporator in the 90's, I definitely learned a lot running this sized evaporator. Our Sugarbush in North facing, and the ground has a lot of frost in that area, we might get additional runs after this warmup, but its going to be close.
  19. Love my mini splits. Heat, and cool my ranch house with one in the living room and one in the master. Both run off the same outside unit. Cost less the buring oil by a huge margin. However, some only work to -5°. Our is a Fujitsu and works to -15°, but the colder it is, the efficiency drops. Another issue is my basement gets very cold, because the oil furnace never comes on. I installed a pellet stove in the basement and use it from Dec to March. Used 1.5 ton of pellets.
  20. Id love to take a turkey with a BP shotgun. Congrats, beautiful shotgun.
  21. I wish I was that talented, lol. Its made by Bubba grill and smokers.
  22. I love my 250 gal reverse flow. Holds temps within 10° from right to left. Yes I need to add splits every 30 to 45 minutes, but the quality of the meat is second to none. Dont get me wrong. I love my pellet proper. Turn it on and go to bed and my brisket, or pork but is about ready to be wrapped around 7am when I get up. But the smoke flavor, even with smoke tube just isn't the same flavor profile as the stick burner with 3 yr old seasoned wood.
