    WTF is up with my maple trees?

    In my research, I came across that. Sounds like it can be common is alcaline soil - which I certainly have. Can you share some details about the treatments are are looking at?

    WTF is up with my maple trees?

    Now that we've figured out the basswood / beetle problem, can anyone help diagnose my maple issue? I have 3 maples in my yard. 2 are Sierra Glen and 1 is the standard sugar maple variety. All three of them have turned yellow this year. They started out green, and turned yellow, and are even...

    Boat trailer issue

    This is common with boat trailers. Most manufacturers don't put a large enough axle under them. Then you fill them up with gear and batteries and they're too heavy for the axle. Don't be surprised if your alignment doesn't last. Depending on the roads you pull it on, over time, it will...

    Kovash marine

    Try selling something on Craigslist. People always say they're going to buy something and then you never hear from them again. I'd would be great if a mans word was actually worth something, but it's not.

    Suppressor Point of Impact Shift

    I accept that title. The only non-Hodgdon power I shoot is Accurate 1680 for my sub-sonic 300 BLK rounds.

    Suppressor Point of Impact Shift

    Here's why you need to occasionally clean your supressor. Before: After: 1.27 ounces may not sound like much, but considering it's roughly 6% of the total weight, I'd say it was time to clean. I should keep better track, but I would guess roughly between 800 and 1000 rounds since last...

    Suppressor Point of Impact Shift

    Could be the threads on your rifle are out of alignment, which they would not be able to fix. I would want to check alignment on that rifle and then one other for comparison. I know others have done this using an un-fletched carbon arrow. Finding one of the correct diameter for your bore...

    Caught my first fish using a baitcaster

    Mono = "fucking a wet sock". -- My brothers quote, but I find it fairly apt. Sorry Guy, you tend to speak gospel, but I must disagree here. Mono sucks on every reel.

    diet psa...

    In my experience of being a chubby kid transitioning to a fit adult, I have found that (shocker) both diet and exercise are important, but if your purpose is purely weight loss, diet far outweighs the two. You can exercise to exhaustion daily and not lose any weight if you keep eating "like an...

    Caught my first fish using a baitcaster

    None of the above. I would go with 10# max. Power Pro, Suffix 832, or any kind of round braid will have good feel and cast a mile. I actually use 10# Fireline on most of mine. Since it's flat, there can be some "dig-in" issues when I set the hook like a beast, but that only makes the very...

    Suppressor Point of Impact Shift

    Cleaning every 50 to 100 rounds is ridiculous. It depends on the powder used + burn rate + barrel length, but you should be able to go like 1,000 rounds or more in most cases. Probably less if you're shooting military surplus or some other cheap / questionable ammo. What I do is weigh my...

    Suppressor Point of Impact Shift

    Yeah, clean vs dirty should not affect POI at all. I have noticed that at a certain point of dirtiness, sound supression decreases and cleaning helps that. But this is at like thousands (not hundreds) of rounds. Centerfire of course. Rimfire is a whole other conversation -- those things run...

    Suppressor Point of Impact Shift

    Thats messed up. I see a shift of .5-2 MOA low with the can on vs not across all my rifles. More on lighter profile barrels, less on thicker ones. The only time I had it move me off paper is when it somehow came 1/4 turn loose. Do you have a crush washer or anything between the barrel and...

    24V vs 36V TM

    What size boat? Aluminum or Fiber? My 18ft aluminum full windshield (wind sail) does very well with a 24 volt 80# Terrova. I can run it all day in a stiff wind and there's plenty to spare (29-group batteries). If you're (sort of) getting by with a 12 volt, I would think a 24 with higher...

    Archery_Elk

    I killed an elk and a moose with a 100 gr Stinger 2-blade. Double-lung, neither made it 50 yards. My brother dispatched an elk quickly with a 100 gr 3 blade Muzzy. Any solid fixed blade that you can shoot well will do. - - - Updated - - - Fixed blade: yes. 125 grain: probably won't make...

    6mm Creedmore

    It's a sweet round. I recently re-barreled my AR-10 from 243 Win to 6mm Creed. It's very similar ballisticly to the 243, but is superior in design in every way the 6.5 Creed is superior to the 260 Rem. Right now I'm shooting 87 Berger vlds at ~3280 out of a 22in barrel with Varget. Those...

    Tree Tubes?

    Personally, I would take the time to put a circle of about 6ft tall chicken wire (or some such) around them, attached to a post. Make it big enough to allow for lateral growth. That way you only have to mess with them once. Problem with fruit trees especially is that even when they get big...

    Mtn Climber~

    I guess the court will have to define what's "reasonable" here. I don't know... to me, since there is no explicit contact in place between a person and these civil services (fire, rescue, etc) the only thing that is "reasonable" is to hope for the best and have insurance. Also, in a...

    Mtn Climber~

    I understand the anger part of the grieving process, but a lawsuit is not the answer. Everyone wants to be a victim and lay blame elsewhere. If my house burns down because (I think) it took the fire dept too long to get there, can I sue them?

    Shooting reduced recoil 30-06

    Sounds like fun. The only thing I'll mention is that like creating sub-sonic rounds, you want to start high with your Powder Charge and work your way down. Doing it in the other direction can result in a bullet stuck in the bore.
