    Left Hand 22LR?

    What is out there for decent 22lr in left hand? It appears CZ used to make one, but stopped last year. That would have been my preference, but I am a year to late. I don't need a chipmunk style though as my son is a giant for a 7 year old. Who makes a decent left hand bolt action 22LR with iron sights?

    Diesel Rebuild Shops

    $15-18k will buy you a used whole cummins truck with half as many miles on it.

    Vortex VIP Warranty

    I have not had that kind of issue, but they just helped me out. I lost a screw and locking handle for my tripod head last season, and they sent me a new one. Easy peasy.

    Weight Distribution Hitch recommendations

    That's a steal. You better jump on it.

    Weight Distribution Hitch recommendations

    TW is the most important part for sway control. A WDH will help but not cure a sway problem. You can get a friction sway bars that can help, but a well setup dual axle trailer with good TW should tow fine without sway control. If it is windy causing sway you need to slow down. If you start to get sway, you use the trailer brake override to calm down the sway.

    Weight Distribution Hitch recommendations

    You need more tongue weight especially if you are going weight distribution. 400lb seems pretty light. That truck doesn't need it for a 7k lb. Trailer realistically. WDH isn't a bad thing, but you too little tongue weight is bad and can be dangerous. My 7k trailer behind my Dodge cummins uses WDH, but it is a toyhauler with no toy in the back so I have plenty of tongue weight. I will tow short distance without the WDH, but for any trips out of town I put the WDH on. I have an equalizer style, but the husky looks similar and is cheaper. I tow my car hauler trailer with 7-8k on it without WDH, but i make sure to adjust the tongue weight by moving the vehicle location on the trailer. I would rather have a little to much TW than too little.

    Unit 27 Semi Live Late Bull Hunt

    Did he give it time to bleed out, or just keep shooting? Was he in close quarters with it? I have seen a cow elk take massive damage and keep moving but she was very close to the shooters and the adrenaline was pumping and keeping her on her feet. The other 4 cows I have been around when shot were at longer ranges (150-350yrds) and they didn't know where the shooter was, or what was going on. They all dropped from 1 or 2 shots and ran less then 40 yards each.

    Shred him on the gun, hat, and camo, but the boots are legit. I love mine.

    Unit 27 Semi Live Late Bull Hunt

    What bullet? I hit my cow elk with one 135gr Berger Classic Hunter from a 6.5x55. She went 40 yards tops. Her lungs were shredded.

    Reverse osmosis filter

    Was it a sediment/prefilter?

    Reverse osmosis filter

    Yup. This reminds me, I need to change my pre-filter.

    Smoking prime rib, then travel

    Foil wrap it, wrap it in towels and put it in a cooler. It will probably carryover cook a little, but probably not to much.

    Reverse osmosis filter

    Does it feed into the RO system? If so, it is probably a sediment filter. I have a pre-filter before my main filters that take a cartridge that looks like a big toll of string. Discountfilters.com Email them that pic, and I bet they know what it is. They shipped my last order quickly and were good to deal with.

    Payson People Road Conditions?

    We went off Colcord east of Young Highway because the road wasn't covered in deep unbroken snow. We ended up with a pine tree, but not a Doug Fir or Spruce that some people really want. If the roads were better we would have looked harder for something a little more full and thick, but we ended up with a nice big pine tree that makes the house smell nice and looks fine too.
  19. How bad is it up there right now? How many inches are on the ground? To me it seems like ADOT is adopting the CA model of road closures right now. If it has a single snowflake, shut it down. We want to come up and cut a tree in tonto, but everything is closed.

    Xmas Tree Cutting In Tonto?

    I went off of Colcord road south of the 260 off of the Young Highway. We ended up with a nice big pine, but we didn't see a lot of Douglas Fir or other "preferred" Christmas trees. I believe there are some in that area from what the lady at Tonto told me, but the roads and forest roads were pretty nasty so we didn't want to venture to far off the beaten path with 10" of snow on the ground.

    Bunch o’ stuff

    I have customers in Tempe and Chandler so I can probably make that work. Let me measure my kids feet in the am and see if they are going to work.

    I am interested in the danner boots. Where are they located?

    Diesel Gelling?

    They dip a sample of fuel from your tank and look for the red coloring. Road diesel is greenish, dyed offroad diesel is red.

    Stuck

    Make sure you do alot of shovel work on that before you try and yank it out.

    Payson People Road Conditions?

    We went up today and cut our Christmas tree. The main roads were not bad, the 512 road south of 260 headed toward Young was a little dicey in the am but mostly good by 130pm when we left. We picked a tree off Colcord road. Colcord wasn't bad, but it was snow pack. It was all starting to melt some when we left, and I image will be a muddy nasty mess in the next few days.
