    What is Idaho Falls like?

    Going South to Pocatello isn't going to change the weather much. Pretty much the same to Salt Lake City. The winds in SE Idaho can be fierce! For mountains on the East side, you'll have to head to the WY border. For more moderate weather, head to the Western part of the state.

    Hunting & Fishing .308 what grain ?

    600yds in TN? I'm lucky to find 150yds of open terrain in Middle TN. Go into the bean fields of West TN, and you might get there. Seriously, FCS covered pretty much everything.

    What is Idaho Falls like?

    I lived in N. Utah for a long time and regularly worked in Idaho. As stated, Eastern ID is largely farm land, dry and hot. Rexburg has a decent range, but shooting Service Rifle there, it is the only range that is so windy, the Standing stage is a real workout! Boise is in what they call the...

    We lost a young mechanic at Balad in 2003. He was filling a Blackhawk tire with nitrogen, not following proper procedures. When it cut loose and split him in half and seriously injured another.

    He had a few stocks that were curing after being bedded and what looked like a large box of stocks just dropped off by FedEx.

    Meredith Rifles visit

    I had the opportunity to meet Tooter Meredith of Meredith Rifles today. My Remington 5R barrel had an issue with threading for a Thunderbeast suppressor. Tooter took quite a bit of time looking over the rifle and giving me options to fix it. I had envisioned a barrel pull, cut back...

    Maggie’s Bugatti hits 246 in Idaho

    That thing sounded like a jet aircraft going by! There used to be something similar in Utah years ago (still might be). They closed down a section of highway for a charity fundraising event. The troopers clock you on radar and your "fine" for the speeding went to charity. I remember one guy in...

    So I just had to endure the dumbest shit of all time on the phone

    Utah related- I lived there when the Winter Olympics came to SLC. People were trying to buy event tickets, but there were US and foreign quotas. People from New Mexico were having a devil of a time buying tickets at US prices, as they lived in a "foreign country".

    Gun Laws In Tennessee

    This happens when dogs start running deer. If you've ever seen what happens when a few "tame" housedogs do to a cornered deer, you'd see why.

    I just read about this kid. A guy in a truck threw a beer bottle at his Mustang and the cops were getting the information. In the whole video you can see him flicking dust off the car, wiping off exhaust tips, etc. He LOVES this car. And then...

    Gunsmithing Need barrel thread work (Middle TN/Northern AL)

    After receiving my suppressor, I found out the diameter of the undercut area on my factory threaded M700 5R barrel is too large. Does anyone have a recommendation for someone in the Middle TN or Northern AL area who can fix this? (I really don't want to ship this thing off.)

    Gunsmithing Fiberglass stock need sealing after sanding?

    I had to open up the barrel channel of a B&C stock. Sanded smooth and ready to do final assembly. Does the sanded area need any type of sealant, or is it good to go, as is?

    Suppressors 13 months??

    THIS is why I like to send in the forms myself. (I got burned on my first NFA purchase when the dealer forgot.) But I've heard that some don't dealers don't want the customer to send them in for the exact same reason, customer forgets.

    trail cams for photos of cars?

    Camera trigger speed will be a huge factor for you. If the camera is perpendicular to the road/trail, you are SOL. Put it parallel to the road and you stand a much better chance as the vehicle will be in the camera's zone longer. Faster trigger speed=more money. At night, there are several...
