    Camper trailer water lines freezing?

    The buddy heaters are catalytic heaters that don't have CO2 issues. I would still keep a detector in the trailer in case it malfunctions but you shouldn't need it. It has an onboard "oxygen depletion sensor".

    Camper trailer water lines freezing?

    We rented a toyhauler last year for the late elk hunt and we went without water. It was well below freezing at night and the first few days only barely got above freezing. We bought a bunch of bottled water and just used it to keep the toilet full and used it to flush, and did dishes with it. Heat up water on the stove and bath that way. Not the best clean, but still cleaner. It was great for the heater and dry warm place to sleep.
  3. There is some private land over that way near cleator so be careful. There are deer there for sure though. We ran a good size buck out of there a few years ago. Get high and glass. I grew up with my dad hunting 20a so I have a soft spot for it. It is a tough area though.

    Election time is upon us

    I went to North High...It was that or Alhambra High. Not sure which choice is worse, but those were the only 2 choices.

    Medium Savage Talley rings

    1" rings? Flat rear receiver or round?
  6. Vortex 6x24x50 FFP Viper HSLR is on order! I picked up some Berger 210 HVLD's today and also managed to find GM215M primers to match them with!!! I picked up 2 boxes. This build is coming together!!!

    Election time is upon us

    I was inline this morning when the polls opened. I am not optimistic that Trump will win, but I did what I can do.

    How I occupy my time when I am not hunting...

    I almost went to mechanics school, but this is the reason I didnt. A family friend was a mechanic and he had lots of projects. He rarely had a finished drive able project.

    Here is my crawler.
  10. I have a savage 110 in 300 win mag I am working on building. I ran into a problem today though. If I want to make the shells COAL longer they don't fit the magazine. I have the 208ELD-M bullets seated at 3.45 and it will only allow 1 round in the magazine and 1 chambered. Is there any way to lengthen the stock magazine so I can fit all the rounds? I am not opposed to a 2 rounder, but having the other 2 rounds would be nice.

    Meat processor in Flag

    I used Casey's last year, and if I can connect with another elk again this year I will be using him again. They did a great job. Harley

    Cards getting hit

    I got hit for $100 so me and my group are going again...
  13. How are the fed.gm 210m primers working in a magum load?
  14. They must be the 212gr then.
  15. 1 step closer. My buddy picked up his and my rifle from the smith today after getting muzzle brakes added. They are cerakoted black and look great. Mine is the 5 port brake on the heavy barrel. The Talley lightweight rings showed up today too. Now I need to order a scope...

    How I occupy my time when I am not hunting...

    I don't have any $$$ anymore. I haven't really done much with my crawler since my first son was born almost 5 years ago. I finally broke down and sent it over to a buddies place to pay him to do some work on it since I have zero fee time with 2 kids under 5 years old. I have devoted more time and energy into hunting over the last 5 years though. It is easier to grab a paid for fully functional gun and go to the field to hunt than it is to find time to fix a broken crawler & trailer and find the money to pay for the parts to fix what you break when you go out.

    I have thought about using it on my late elk hunt next month, but it has no doors, top, windshield, etc. Sounds very cold...

    Mine is hunting and rockcrawling. Still not cheap. I do have a 500 CID Caddy V8 in my rockcrawler though so it is kind of a dirt hot rod.
  20. If anyone has one please let me know. I would like to put 1 on a recent addition to the collection that is missing 1.

    Free big fella camo pants.

    Yep. I have never been a small person. My football coaches gave me the name in high school and I cant argue that it doesn't fit.

    I will take them please.

    Very cool truck. My other hobby is being a gearhead too, so I love to see stuff like this.
  24. I bought a box of 208gr ELD-X to start working with once I get the rifle back and the scope ordered. I ordered rings and they should be here soon. Talley 1pc Ring/Base Combo. I will probably start working with the 208gr and H1000 to start with.

    Tikka Rifles

    A buddy of mine has the 300 Win Mag and really likes it. I would definitely consider it high on the list if I was in the market for a new rifle.
