    .270 as an elk round

    If you're looking for ammo, here's a good price. Shipping rates sort of force you to buy multiple boxes to make it pencil out: https://www.shootersproshop.com/270-win-150gr-partition-trophy-grade-ammunition-blem.html

    Lever action restorations

    The MVA tang sight you linked is the one I had in mind. The gunsmith I worked with was speaking highly of them. That is a thumb extension on the hammer. My granddad had it on there. I haven't decided if I'll leave it on or not.

    Lever action restorations

    Well it took awhile but I finally got off my butt and took the rifle to a gunsmith back in June. I got the call this afternoon it was ready to pick up. Allen Springer at Snowy Mountain Blue Gun Restoration in MT did the rust bluing, case coloring and stock refinishing. I had the scope mount...

    Gun Safes

    When I was looking to buy a safe, I talked to a security company. The guy explained fire ratings to me, most of which I've forgotten. I do recall him saying most safes aren't going to leave your contents in any useable condition during a full house blaze. He did say two things that stuck with...

    How to stretch your pantry/fridge

    Two places I frequented in college: one place had $0.10 wings every Tuesday, the other offered free pizza during happy hour (beers were $1). Haven't come close to those cost savings since. One cost savings we've done is to buy the family pack of pork chops at Costco and then repackage them...

    Dog got sprayed by a skunk

    A bird hunting friend and a vet both told me they keep a can of barbasol shaving cream in their trucks. Slather it on the sprayed area and it is a good initial treatment until you get home. I've never tried it myself, just the peroxide and baking soda solution.

    New Mexico is going up in flames

    I recorded 1.53" of rain at my house last night. A co-worker recorded nearly double that. Gila NF fire restrictions have been rescinded. Now to wait for green up. Edit: I forgot my rain gauge resets at midnight. I recorded an additional 0.65" after midnight so 2.18" total

    Outdoor wood burning furnace

    My dad had an outdoor furnace for the better part of 35 years. Older, 2 story home - maybe 2,200 SQ ft. Several of them actually. He recently switched to propane just due to age and the physical toll of cutting that much wood. In a typical NW PA winter he'd burn 10-12 cord of wood I think (Nov -...
