Are you happy where you live?

Question for you fellas and ladies.

Are you happy where you live?

Im trying to convince my wife to build another house on the far side of our property, away from the neighbors. I cannot stand having neighbors but we have them on 3 sides of our farm unfortunately. We bought this place 5 years ago and its almost completely paid for but damn I despise having people constantly in my business.

At my wits end... need some help from my Fellow 'Hiders. Chicken Fried Steak!

Ok... so I love Chicken Fried Steak. If it's on the menu, I am ordering it. The ONLY reason I ever go to a Cracker Barrel is because they have a decent Chicken Fried Steak and Gravy.

For the life of me I cannot make it at home... and failed again tonite. Yuck, still tastes like frying oil. I'm going to have to eat licorice or Kale to get the taste out of my mouth.

I know... I'm a Yankee. I have no business making Chicken-fried Steak. It's probably more secret among you Southern Boys than the Nuclear Codes or where Dent's Gold is...

But for the love of all things holy, would some of you guys post some actual recipes and cooking methods that work? Everything online recipe-wise is utter bullshit and never works. So there must be some secrets or tricks that no bimbo working in "Martha Stewart's Kitchen" could possibly fathom. Though Martha Stewart has a great tutorial on how to make a Prison Shiv Coozy. I am no stranger to Southern Cooking from Hush Puppies to Carolina Pulled Pork off a whole hog. But I cannot get Chicken Fried Steak to work. Ever.

Anyway... Chicken Fried Steak recipe thread. HELP!

Suppressors Rocksett - what did I do wrong?

So my Surefire shim kit came with a little vial of Rocksett, I had not used it before but have heard for semi's with high rate of fire and suppressors this would be better than Loctite due to its high heat resistance. I applied a liberal amount to my threads and then threaded on my TBAC SR brake, let it sit for over 24 hours and then tried to remove the brake and it spun off with little resistance??? What did I do wrong as the previous brake that was on there with Rocksett took significant force to remove? I'm used to Loctite but thought I'd try this stuff out; however, clearly I did something wrong...

Poor man’s shooting tripod

I was going to post this as a joke and then the more I played with it the more I realized it has true potential. I was tinkering around in the garage with my son and his air rifle and saw my bicycle stand. It is a Feedback Sports tripod. It can clamp the bicycle or your rifle just like a hog saddle and it is adjustable for height and pivots in all the necessary directions. You can actually get quite steady with it and you can reach all of the necessary controls for locking pivot and up-and-down while you have the rifle shouldered. I think it has potential as a toss in the back of the truck just in case kind of thing or even “leave it at your favorite hunting spot” deal, because who really cares since it’s only $110. (It can also double as a bicycle stand LOL.)

Reloading Predicament

Hi All,

I used to reload many years ago. Did that for Shotgun sports when I used to compete in Sporting Clays, and did so with a 1990's Hornady 366 (still in the attic).

Back then I was reloading (and shooting) about 20K shot shells a year. That was a necessity! It was a lot cheaper than buying that many Remington STS shells - my favorites - by far. At first it was fun, then it became work -a LOT of work. I also reloaded rifle ammo in .308 for hunting but don't have that press and kit anymore.

Fast forward to today, I'm off the shotgun sports and shooting precision rifle. So, I've been saving my Hornady 6mm once fired brass and I'm up to ~800 pieces.

Keep thinking I might go back into reloading. Then I looked at the cost. Starting with the setup - minimally ~$1.0k, then powder, bullets, primer, etc. - if I can find them.

On top of that, the Hornady factory match ammunition I am using has evolved to a point where it is so much better than yesterday's ammo that I get bug hole groups at a 100 yards with their 6mm108s more often that not. If I shop around I can get the factory ammo for a buck fifty a round. I doubt I can do better than that at home.

So, what's the point? I could see myself going back to reloading with all that brass and all, but the expense of setting up plus components don't seem to make sense, especially with the factory ammo's precision.

I want to make use of that once fired pristine brass though, hence the quandary.

I might just go deep and get involved in the reloading biz again, but this time doesn't seem like the '90s, when there was no other way.... There are no savings!

Thoughts?
