Mornin guys.
I ain't been keeping up here for a while, hopefully y'all are well.

Don't remember if I mentioned it here, but I'm selling a bunch of man stuff at auction this Saturday (July 6th)
I'll put a link here for anyone who's interested in things that go bang..... There's some pretty nice junk in there.
(Shipping is available.)

Are all the pieces in the “Let freedom ring” yours?

Those Model 70’s particularly peaked my interest

 

[Lionsfan]

I'm a model 70 guy also, but that model 700 bdl in 7mm-08 caught my attention.

The first 80 or so are mine.

The 25-06 has only rounds through it.

The stainless 30-06 I bought at a pawn shop back in about 2000, killed a couple elk with it back in Oregon.

I'm a model 70 guy also, but that model 700 bdl in 7mm-08 caught my attention.

I bought that one new about 4 years back, it has less than 25 shots through it.

Just got my first 700 in .243

I have half dozen 70’s and a handful of Ruger 77’s

Wasn’t ever a big fan of that bolt handle



Price on the .243 was too good to say no to

Good luck on the Auction Sawdust man, I’ll send the link to my buddies

That commemorative 94 would look good in my 94 collection

I also like that 38-55, is that a falling block?

Afternoon fellas'. Between work, household chores and the garden I haven't posted much lately. However, after 2 years of kickin' tires and gettin' cold feet, I finally pulled the trigger on a tractor. So far, I love it

Nice lawn mower!

 

[chipper1]

Scounged up the black locust that crushed the chicken run, got a few nice bucket loads and a couple good sized sticks that went on the log pile.



Toyota guys be like "it ain't loaded til it's overloaded " lol.

Did you get your lawn mover out of the mountain place.

 

[mountainguyed67]

Did you get your lawn mover out of the mountain place.

No. I did have an offer to be allowed to do that, watching the fire to see if it’s necessary. Of course if I wait too long and the place is crawling with heavy equipment, they won’t let me. Decisions - decisions.

That’s about 2 grand worth of wood there.

Yes the 38-55 is an 1885 falling block.
That thing shoots amazingly well.

Yes sir, just like HVBW .

No. I did have an offer to be allowed to do that, watching the fire to see if it’s necessary. Of course if I wait too long and the place is crawling with heavy equipment, they won’t let me. Decisions - decisions.

Maybe you could just wait until all the big equipment is there and blend in .

Here's a little vid of scrounged narrow-leaf peppermint (from last year's Monstromint) burning down low for you.

Did you see the cat face on the right side .

Break down and do the cordless grinder! You will never regret it. If it is not a Milwaukee, though, plan on it taking a couple of charges... I have yet to come across a battery like theirs, and this will take a lot of battery.

Well, I actually got my dad one for his birthday since he had a need for one out in the hay field, but have not had a chance to see him and give it to him. I was telling him about my situation and he said man we need to just get one of those battery grinders, so to keep him from going to buy one that day I told him he already had one. He said " well get it out and let me know if it works!" lol

 

[EchovsStihl63]

Get some Kroil. Best stuff I have ever used. Might take a day or two but it will come loose. jmho OT

Next best to that is Seafoam deep creep. And there was not enough of the nut head left to even have a chance at getting it to move
