They were originally bred just for hunting badgers, it's in their blood. A lot of dog breeds have had the wild bred out of them in the last 50-100 years, you should see an original St. Bernard, they could be an extreme handful and aggressive, still some essentially the same as they were 100...

+1, I had to look at other threads you posted to find that is a 30cal around 90 FPE. For the extreme length of time the pellet is in the barrel, that explains some of the massive rise from recoil. The pellet is in the barrel for ages, the smallest shooter inconsistency can easily make over a...

Some will, some won't. Ours, back in the 1960's was a serious hunter but wouldn't waste time on anything smaller than a rabbit, wouldn't even look at squirrels sideways. When she decided it was time to go hunting, she would get out of her collar somehow, she was chained to a run when let...

Like the smart ones said 40-50 percent charge for a LIPO battery in long term storage. The simple fact you are asking says a lot, I bet you don't use a programmable balance charger, because if you did you would know more and not ask in all likilyhood. If you are worried about longevity on your...

Not fast at all, I have two .22's rebarreled with 1 in 12 match barrel, both I only shoot subsonic suppressed in, one a 11+ inch pistol, one 16.5 inch rifle. With the exception of one american eagle load that is horrible beyond belief, I've tried a dozen or more subsonic rounds 40-45 gr in both...

I never got into it myself other than taking them by opportunity, but I have 2 friends, one in VA and one in NC that swear by their 17 fireballs. I've shot both of them, one a custom and one a bone stock rem. The rem may have been a 3/4 moa gun at best, the custom was 1/2moa at worst. Way...

I would not be so polite, I call the manufacturer a GD idiot for doing that, and it makes me think extremely poorly of them.

Back in the late 1970's/early 80's, one of my uncles bought a vacation home on a lake in ohio. First summer he and his wife stayed there his wife fed the squirrels and chipmunks, they were cute and got to the point of eating out of her hand. My uncle tried to stop her. After winterizing the...

No way in he(* would I run a 3hp electric motor on a household 120vac line, not even a dedicated circuit with 12 gauge wire and a 20 amp breaker. On a multi-circuit 15 amp breaker, pure stupidity to even try.

Exact thing happened to me around 2002. After attempting to talk to neighbor about their cat killing songbirds off my feeders I knew it was a lost cause. The conversation on their end went so bad I wanted to just SSS on them. I trapped their cat, dropped it off at the animal shelter. I left...

First, people on this board talk about night vision with a broad brush lumping true light amplification NV with digital camera NV. True NV, atn sucks so bad it is not even funny, I have used second gen ancient military units that are orders of magnitude better than ATN's current crap. A lot of...

@birdie Even if AOA replaces the allen head bolts, if they aren't grade 8 or equiv. in metric, replace them when you get it back. Do yourself a massive favor and buy at least one high quality allen wrench, talking matco/snap-on/ etc. quality, nothing you can buy in a box store. It is...

Your profile says you live in TX, if that is the eastern part of TX and you lived there decades ago, you could have bought a good condition real scuba compressor for no more than 1500(probably a whole lot less), not 3000+. Neighbor two houses down when I lived in Dallas in the early 70's was...

You could keep an eye out on craigslist for a very small trailer that can be towed by virtually any vehicle out there, and build a box to protect the compressor from junk blowing in the wind. You could probably do it for under 500 dollars including having a light duty tow hitch added to a...

If you have a vehicle suitable to tow but don't have a trailer, you can buy extremely sturdy hitch carriers that can take several hundred pounds. Of course, your vehicle must have a hitch capacity(not tow weight, but vertical weight) that exceeds weight of carrier+cargo by a good safety margin...

@Trucker3573 , Glad your window is back to normal without costing an arm and leg. These insulators were huge high voltage insulators, not like the ones you see on distribution lines in neighborhoods, they were well over a foot in diameter and weighed a ton.

I got into reloading in my 20's solely for the savings and availability. I have quite a few obsolete/low production calibers in my collection. In the last few years with the crazy cost increases, I added a couple standard rounds I load for solely on cost. I hate reloading, it's...

I shot myself in the forehead when I was 21 with a 22lr. Ran across a big pile of old ceramic insulators from a high power power line deep in the 1,000+ acres I used to hunt with exclusive access, well techically the owner's son had access but he lived on the west coast and this was in SW Va...

Same here, but it has been a long time since I could find a steak worth buying to grill at home at a price I'm willing to pay. I do know two places that have good looking beef in limited quantities, but 32 a pound is too much. Literally going on near two decades since I've had an actual top...

If you go used, you can get the focus range you want without sacrificing image quality for very little more than what the cronus cost you. For instance right now someone is selling a zeiss LRP S3 4-25x50 with the mil reticle on snipershide for 1750. Won't save you any weight, maybe an ounce at...
