I only used one 22LR fired from my Stevens rifle I bought back in the early 60's. Scope on it worked great.

Do you have any other pics of your truck?
99' F250 with a 7.3 auto , 156k miles on it when I bought it from the second owner , it was never abused but only got bare bones for maintenance and not real pretty up close .
All you guys that complain about rust , come up here and you'll be in awe as to what salt and water can do LOL
Hopefully I can get 4 or 5 years out of it but polly 2 .
Here's tonight's splitting area .
Obligatory chainsaw pic LOL

Nice. Looks like Grey Birch. What are you using for the splitting maul?
Is that saw a Stihl 361?

Nice birch. I have one similar that I cut this winter (the one that rolled over my then new 562 but no harm) waiting to be split once things cool down.

I have some 361's but that's an 034 Super that's been "Mighty Moused" LOL
It is white birch but you'd swear it was grey birch if you only saw the first 6' .
The maul is the Fiskars Isocore 8lb , I feel it's well worth the money , no funny vibrations through the handle , not too keen on the grippy handle at the grip but it gets smoother the more I use it so it'll polly wear in just fine .
Polly 3 cord split with it so far .

Cool.
They have a really good "CRACK" when shooting. I have the "New Model Sturm-Ruger" wheel gun with both cylinders. Married a german girl. She wanted to learn to shoot. I dtried her with .22 short. Worst flinch I ever saw, almost jammed the barrel in the dirt with every shot. Even loading up with empty chambers here and there didn't cure it. Haven't looked recently but last time I checked there was no .22 ammo of any size in Wal Mart.
Pics from last night and this morning. About 4 cord in total done.

Ok..cool. I do not see much if any where I am.
I only see hard wood up here. Oak, maple, cherry, black locust.

Aspen is right behind the splitter. Further back is birch and pine.

Nice.
Actually there is some red oak to the rear of the splitter too.
High of 76 today at the cabin and cooler for the weekend.

Stopped out at my FIL's 40 today. Was freaking mauled by skeeters and deer flys.
