Glad the little squirt is going to be OK. BTDT as many of us have. Prayers continue for your family. This is a great site. Although I don't know many of you personally, I feel like you folks are my family. I got a little weepy last night as I saw everyone that was praying for someone they will proba...

The new Accura came in last night and the Kodiak Pro is on its way back to CVA. All looks well with the Accura. Scope base and sights line up correctly and I'm looking forward to getting out and shooting this one. The Accura has a much better trigger too. They say it’s set at 2.5# and I believe it. ...

Woohoo, Congrats!

Roger that.

The nice thing is that the panel is in the garage on an exterior wall with an adjacent door and the area is fenced off. I can have the panel wired to a disconnect and then straight through the wall to a weather-proof box. Should work slick.

I just went ahead and picked up the generac GP5500. The price was right and generac is a known brand. I think it'll do fine for what I need it to do.

cnjarvis

Thanks for the replies gents. I realize that the generator size I'm looking at won't run my whole house. That's not the point. All I want it to run is a couple of lights, the fridge, tv or radio and the heater blower. (we have nat gas). I know about wiring the panel for the hook-up. The genset will ...

I'm looking at picking up a genset for the house for power outages and for camping excursions. Any words of "wisdom" from the peanut gallery?

Requirements are:
5000 - 6000 watt range
Portable with wheels
Good parts and repair service availability
Less than $1000

D-d-d-don't w-w-want to hear it.

It's 11° here in OKC with a -6° wind chill. North winds at 18 with gusts to 36.

BRRRRR!

Now we wait for Nanook to chime in that we're whiners 'cause it's -30° where he is.

My tip is going to be check with toyota for service manuals. The service manuals I used when I was a Cummins mechanic were pretty good.

Gents, I just got off the phone with CVA. THEY called ME to apologize for the mistake and to let me know that they will be sending me a new rifle to replace the one I have along with a call tag to send the old one back. Not only that but because the rifle I purchased has been discontinued, :cry: the...

It's just an excel spreadsheet that I put together for my own use. I can do sorts by any component and by accuracy to see what's working or not. It also makes sharing my results easier.

Last I heard there were 16,000 without power statewide and a 50 car pile-up in Midwest City.

Kimber makes some nice lamnated black grip scales IIRC. For that matter, what about Hogue or Esmerelda?

Yeeeooowwww! That's gonna leave a mark!

It really looks to me like the entry was at the base of the neck though.

I've been talking to their head CS guy from day one. I can't say anything bad about the guy. He's always been polite and responsive. Unfortunately, the rifle still isn't "right". I called them this morning and asked to talk to someone above his head and the subordinate CS rep I spoke to wo...

cnjarvis

Well, I finally got the rifle back...

CVA installed a single piece scope base, boxed it up and shipped it. Nothing was done about the alignment of the holes or the rear sight base so it's still not right. I'm not sure what I'm going to do at the moment.

Hooray!

Monday my son, known here as "Ysabel Kid's Kid", or more often just "Y2K", had a great night. He had his board of review with the Boy Scouts and earned his Second Class rank. At this rate, he'll earn his First Class rank before his first anniversary with the Boy Scouts. :D Next,...

Looks like he did that bear a favor though.

Those spring-wire blinds mentioned above reminded me of mine. They do work and I've taken deer from them but mine was all but useless in winds 20 mph and up which are common here in OK. I've moved on to a hub type blind.

cnjarvis

I use them extensively for rifle season and Really like them. I haven't had a deer come closer than 40-50 yards but I hunt in pretty open country and deliberately set up that far away from their anticipated travel path. IME, I would not trust the blind to control your scent. It won't. I can see a sm...

Welcome!

I never expected the deer to drop on the spot, I was just surprised because I've never seen one react like that. I apologize for not having pics of the deer - It never occurred to me to take photos and I had a camera with me the whole time. :oops: I DO have a photo of the bullet jacket that I recove...

For those that remember, I pledged to hunt my father's Win 94 in 30-30 this season until I took a deer with it or season was over since I'd never taken an animal with it. I shot a doe Saturday night that was apparently related to 86er’s 4-horned goat. I hit her just behind the heart at 60yds. She to...

My daughter, who enjoys shooting, is going to be an "only" and will get all of them. Same stipulation as others: Never to be sold but must be passed down to the next generation.

My Sig SHR 970 in 270 Win. Handloaded with 130gr. Nosler BT's and 60gr. H4831SC has accounted for all but one of my gun season deer. Fantastic cartridge in a fantastic rifle.

cnjarvis

Perhaps, but it makes me wonder how many times he'd done it and what the money SHOULD have been spent on.

Food for the kids maybe?

cnjarvis

I have the hots for one of those myself - one of Steve's worked-over 92's in that exact caliber for similar reasons.

Good choice and happy hunting friend.

I believe I do. Don't think I haven't thanked God and my lucky stars that I'm on this side of the dirt and MOL in one piece.

I was hunting my tree stand next to the feeder Saturday morning and at 11:00 I started to get down. I had just picked up my waist pack and was shouldering it when the nylon ratchet strap holding the tree stand snapped. No safety harness + 15’ drop equals OUCH! The express elevator’s descent was slow...

I have the exact monopod you're looking at. I've abandoned mine. The two things I don't like are the rubber coating on the "V" top and the stability. The rubber coating sticks to the rifle. Under recoil, the rifle and thus the top of the monopod move rearward. This changes the elevation of...

Joe probably had a priest bless the rifle and ammo and dipped the bullets in holy water.

I'm with Joe on this one although I do have a SxS 16 ga. and like the straight grip just fine.
