    Fixing social security

    I think you need to go back and read one of my earlier posts. I would be all for removing all farm subsidies and let the end consumer experience the true cost of the food they buy including the necessary insurance needed to cover crop losses, etc. that each farmer will need to carry baked into...

    Fixing social security

    Well I work a full time job and draw a salary from a large company and I own a small business. I have also owned commercial property and realized income from that. My wife ran her own small business for a while. So I do know a little bit about the tax code that applies to those situations...

    Fixing social security

    Yep - put in the sweat equity. Buy that small farm and grow it. Buy some neighboring land and farm that to produce more. Rinse and repeat. Pass it to their children so that they can have a career and grow the business. I am 100% for that model. Hell, I would even invest in a small farmer...

    Fixing social security

    And when you sell that asset, whether it is stock, a piece of land, whatever and realize that gain, then there are capital gains taxes collected. But taxing "wealth" based on an assumed gain calculated from today's stock market value or an assessed value on some defined date every year is not...

    Fixing social security

    Young families can't start farming unless they have a family that already is in the business or they become employed farmers for a large corporation. But allowing the Govt to swoop in and take property away from existing families by taxing the bejeebers out of them so they have to sell it off...

    Fixing social security

    Whether it applies to 0.1%, 1% or 100% doesn't make it right. If the Govt. can do it to the 0.1% today, they can do it to the 10% tomorrow. That whole fair and equitable treatment thing always seems to get in the way. And no, I am not part of the 0.1% or the 1%, or the 10%.

    Fixing social security

    Contractor's kid shouldn't either. I don't agree with how estate taxes are levied for anyone. Just more Govt overreach on collecting taxes on the same stuff over and over. Not right for small business nor farmers/ranchers.

    Fixing social security

    Nope. Again, you are taxing wealth, not income. Losses/deductions only apply to "negative income". To illustrate that point, assume you are a person who has just recently retired after working 40 years. You put money into a 401K that whole time. That port-folio is worth (on paper), $5M...

    Fixing social security

    Because the value of small businesses typically isn't associated with the property they use (land or building); rather it is the intellectual property they have developed, the customer base they have developed, the product that comes out of that building, etc. Ranchers and farmers have their...

    Fixing social security

    Right. Make their children sell the ranch/farm just to pay taxes that someone in DC decides that property is worth before the fact. Because some politician in DC obviously knows better. Stop them from actually farming or ranching on that land so some housing developer can make a killing off...

    Fixing social security

    So you would also be ok with unrealized losses being refunded to those same estates from the Govt. right?

    Off-season project - 7mm Rem Mag

    I do this with one of my 308 factory loads. As is I am just at 1 MOA; tweaking the seating depth for better consistency puts me around 0.75 MOA. Good enough for what I need it to do.

    Favorite 100% copper bullets for 300 Win Mag handloads?

    I have developed a sub 0.55 MOA load with 150-gr CX's for my 7mm RM. Still waiting for the right bull to step in front of that bullet though.

    Off-season project - 7mm Rem Mag

    I would change bullets or powder as the first step. Some rifles just do not like certain bullets and changing seating depth by 10-50 thousandths isn't going to solve that. If you still have any of your current bullets, then try a different powder. At least then you can rule that variable out (or...

    What Hornady bullet were you using?

    Off-season project - 7mm Rem Mag

    Does look like it is tightening up for you. You can play around the 87 load by a few tenths. Curious what a 87.5 might yield.

    For some very informative reloading videos, check out Sam Millard (https://panhandleprecision.com/). He hasn't done anything new that I can find but I found his reloading videos very helpful.
