Re: Splitting Firewood

I have 48 acres. I only had about 20 ash trees, and they all died 5 years ago. I have enjoyed burning the ash, it is easy to split and has a pretty good amount of BTUs. But, the ash in the forest is now all gone.
All killed by the emerald ash borer, which was introduced into the US in 2002, up in Minnesota. Some scientists say that every ash tree in North America will be killed by this green bug.

Perfect punishment for this guy would be if his wife forced him to vote for Trump, and she did too. That would burn in that man's gut until the day he dies more so than probably any other punishment he could receive.

Tub from a top load washer, AKA Redneck grill. The big (22”?) Weber grate fits on top. You posted that some years back. When I replaced my top loader I remembered your pic and yarded out the tub. Made a fire pit. It worked awesome👍

Re: FN Mauser and peep sights

I am Returned! A quick review of this Thread, largely well covering most all points. But just to add one dimension NOT particularly covered. First just the side note that "Scopes" and "iron: sights are really two differing creatures, with their unique virtues, vices and applications. Iron sights of two major divisions as "aft" sight either barrel or receiver mounted and we've well discussed nuisances of the perpetually termed "peep sight" genre. What wasn't well covered at all was a greatest virtue of the receiver mounted sight versus aft barrel mounted. "Sighting radius". Really quite important 'leg up' in addition to the other principal "peep sight" advantage of 'framing the target' as the human eye literally allowed to focusing entirely on the muzzle sight. The aft barrel sight is a rather poor substitute at range, but remains entirely superior for short range "snap shooting" or where such obstacles as brush make it most handy/convenient. Anyway, any receiver mounted sight offers its rather huge advantage of often about twice the sight radius and is notably superior for such capability "within its realm where extra moments in acquiring and retaining "sight picture" are to be afforded. My take! Best! John

Limbsaver recoil pad makes a world of difference. There must be other brands that work. Most any pad will fit, the only problem for some is that it makes the stock too long. I have cut the stock and built up the thinner inner I beam with Devcon and added a decelerator recoiled pad. That was the issue with me. Instead of sticking with it like you did, solving the long LOP, I moved it. DF

Re: Reloading supplies in your area?

I have essentially stoped looking locally since 2020 due to price @ availability. Prior to that, I can’t recall ever buying powder or primers anywhere except locally. Bullets OTOH and what ammo I purchased instead of loaded, have been almost totally purchased online because local stores seldom have what I want. They’ll have something, but just can’t keep a truly wide selection on hand. About the middle of 2020, when things began to get tight, I looked around online and found powder and primers that filled in the cracks for me and ordered up. Since then, I bought one brick of fairly pricey CCI 41s online, and a pound or two of powder locally. The only ammo I buy local is an occasional flat of shotshells for clays if I happen to be someplace that has them for $100, pretty much what I pay online including delivery. I’ve bought (and sold) some bullets here, and some .22 Hornet brass from that Barsness character…
