They used to bungee jump off the gorge bridge. My buddy said he came
Into this world because of a broke rubber, and ain’t going out for the same reason.
For many years deer camp was a surplus Army tent with liner and a little wood stove. Had a bunch of fun hunting out of that tent it didn’t have a floor, we just used a tarp, and once, in the middle of the night, the legs on my cot at the head collapsed and I slid head and neck under the wall...
Bow season comes in the end of September then rifle season comes in for 2 weeks at thanksgiving then bow runs to the end of the year. Thrown in there somewhere is muzzleloading and an early rifle doe days and the bear archery and rifle seasons. Then in the winter is “heritage days” when only...

“slim Jim’s”
Hot links

Beef/pork kielbasa
When those are done this evening, 4 racks of baby backs and a butt for...
Some of them just look like where the die stopped sizing at the head. Some look like potential separation or the die was set too high. Are they standard dies or small base. Have you mic’d the head? My 280 Ackley brass leaves a “shiny” area at the head, but it doesn’t have a ridge or step in the...
One of my favorite snacks! A dehydrator full of apple chips. I like them with just a pinch of sea salt. The grandkids like to dip them dulce de leche I make with condensed milk in the pressure cooker.
I have my favorites that I switch around according to what I'm feeling. But, if I have one that hasn't drawn blood yet, it tends to see more use until it scores. Sometimes I'll have a specific challenge in mind, like now it's taking a black bear with the 350 legend, so that'll be what I carry...
It wasn’t so long ago the Biden admin was meeting with social media companies asking them to squelch information that goes against their narratives. And the short lived “disinformation czar”. Don’t think they haven’t been in contact with the DOJ wanting ways to circumvent the constitution and...
Yikes! Hope you’re back on your feet soon, buddy! Been there, I shot an industrial pressure washer through a rubber boot and it penciled all the way through my foot. ER bandaged it up and sent me on my way. A few days later the pain was awful. Long story short, ended up a spending a week in the...
Did a rack of St. Louis style ribs in the pit boss. Made a sweet chipotle rub and did an ambient smoke with 50-50 mix of apple and hickory pellets for 30 minutes, the 250* until the internal temperature reached 170* misting every 45 minutes with a 5:1 mix of water and apple cider vinegar. Then...
I love the look and feel of a traditional steel and wood knife, but I was gifted an outdoor edge razor pro and it’s fantastic for all my field care in game animals. Always a scalpel sharp blade ready to go.
It would be a rare occurrence, but if all else checks out, you could measure base to datum line with a comparator and see if the shoulders are set back the same.
How much variation are you seeing? Measuring base to tip you’ll almost always see slight variations. Use a comparator and measure base to ogive, and I’ll bet you’ll see far less variation. I usually only measure base to tip if I’m working with close tolerances in a magazine. setting magazine...
Yessir! The fella that own the farm where we deer hunt has cattle and sheep. Said we can deer hunt all we want so long as we spend summer months thinning out the coyotes.
