I did it with tires off -- Taped the tire around the rims on the good side -- I also put 3 coats on the inside of the rim where it was visible from the outside You have to run a razor around the rim too before peeling the tape off -- better to cut the plastic dip than risk peeling it off with the tape

Ok -- please explain Every system I see the inverter will shut down without incoming power from the grid -- Never seen 1 with battery storage

I just dipped my new jeep rims -- Can't stand the silver rims but don't want to buy new right now -- dipped them flat black They look great -- I used 1 full can per rim -- put on about 5 coats -- lost count Just be sure to either cover holes for the lugs or use an exacto knife, cut around the surface where the lug nuts will touch the rims, and peel the plastic dip from the tapered surface tightening the wheel lugs will peel the dip if there is any on the contacting surface between lug nut and rim - you can cover the holes in the rim with whatever coin will fit properly then just cut the coins out

Most rooftop solar systems are useless with the power grid down --

Type "ARB Fridge" into your search engine -- the best thing going for portable refrigeration in my opinion I have one, 50 quart version -- use it all the time -- runs of household Ac or 12 volt DC -- I did a test using 2 group 65 platinum diehard AGM batteries -- I have these wired in a box with inverter and some 12 volt power outlets for portable silent power wherever Fridge ran for almost 5 days straight, set at 33 degrees, during the summer in my garage before it hit the auto, settable, low voltage shutdown on the fridge We use it for vacations, road trips, emergency use, or if you just need an extra fridge -- right now it's running loaded with beer and soda from a graduation party this weekend My wife takes it to LBI for a week, Just plugs it in when she gets there, never empties it into the house fridge Anyway, It's not cheap but well worth it

stick with it -- The DNZ mounts are top notch -- I have 3 or 4 of them for various platforms I never worried about the height of the actual action -- Just found the scope objective diameter divide it by 2 and then find the height of the mount that is tall enough Using that theory -- 2.28/2 is 1.14 -- you need the high mount if the top of the barrel is flush with the action you probably can get by with the med mount but I would wait to confirm once the gun is in your hands If your impatient, and need to have the mount NOW then order both and send the one back that doesn't work -- just order from somewhere that makes returns easy like Amazon

Eat it -- put it around some tomato plants --Makes great fertilizer

I've been reloading for 25 years now -- For the 1st 20 years I loaded on a single stage rock chucker and never primed on the press -- would rather feel and be sure each primer seated properly I was just making ammo for myself -- didn't shoot matches -- liked precision rifle stuff Then my son came into the shooting world -- So I now have 2 mec shotgun presses -- a dillon 650 -- a hornady LNL progressive -- and a rock chucker on my bench I've tried to load primers on both the dillon and the hornady and I can't get into the rhythm of seating the primer -- I found myself stopping, checking every primer for proper seating All that precision rifle made me need clean primer pockets so I wet tumble -- I can't put a primer in a dirty primer pocket... I know, It doesn't matter with pistol -- but I can't do it So I wet tumble -- Prime unsized brass with a lee hand primer and pull all my decapping pins from my pistol sizing dies -- then run them thru the press pre primed I have NEVER, in 25 years of reloading, had a round fail doing it this way Now that I just jinxed myself...

Just checking here -- Do you have the expander ball and de-priming rod installed in the sizing die? I run all my pistol dies without the de-priming assembly because I de-prime before cleaning and re-prime with a hand priming tool -- I do not prime on any press -- I just don't like it With rifle brass I still de-prime before cleaning then lube, size and expand the case mouth -- then clean again to remove all lube -- then hand prime, powder charge, seat and crimp separately if needed I could see where a new guy could easily think he doesn't need the de-priming assembly if he was to de-prime using a universal de-capping die

All they wanted was the barrel? -- interesting that they don't want to know the cause of the link failure Yes they do make the trojan in .45acp -- I shoot the snot out of mine...

Yes the collet bushing was only made for a few years -- Just remember that when removing the collet barrel bushing to slide the slide back off full lock up -- Don't try and twist the collet bushing while the action is in full battery -- The collet is designed to be pretty tight while the action is locked up supposedly tightening up the groups -- Damage may occur while attempting to remove a collet barrel bushing without 1st going into a partial slide lock position where the collet is much looser

Hey Mike -- Who is doing the work? -- I'd like to see if they need another machine op...

WHY??? -- I was 20 years into reloading before I purchased my 1st chrono -- The paper targets didn't care how fast the bullets traveled Stay with published loads, watch for pressure signs, accuracy and recoil will tell you the sweet spot Only reason I bought 1 was for USPSA and to see if I was actually making major I did end up with the pro chrono digital

I had met Matt at a class by Chris Fry a few years back -- Class was close quarters engagement class -- 6 feet and closer -- Matt was out of shape but still there and at least trying -- I remember him as a hell of a decent guy -- Way to young

I'll tell you what -- I have an upper that I want to put together -- Let me borrow it and I'll weld something to it to make it easier Not sure what I'll use -- Need to see it 1st PM your schedule this week -- Can run over one evening -- I believe you're in somerset -- I'm in Middlesex, a few minutes from the victory bridge

Why don't you like it?

Heritage guild all locations had mini mags for $8.50 a box -- I bought 10 Not sure if they still have them but might be worth a call

Serious questions here -- Do you ever have any fear of shooting too many this early in the year? -- Aren't the young still too young to survive without mom? I've been holding off shooting the hogs on my hunting property with the thoughts of having more targets later in the season if I let the moms raise their young now -- Am I smoking crack?

I live in the town of middlesex -- This town is so anti business that I'm surprised they let him do that -- Actually he hasn't sold anything yet I also wonder how it will work with the liquor license -- my guess is he will be wholesale only -- you won't actually be able to buy a beer from the guy Good for him for following his dream -- I hope it works out for him

I have a 3 foot by 3 foot directional antenna in my attic pointing out the gable end of my house right at NY -- Works like a charm -- Get about 30 channels, watch maybe 10 of them -- Free high def Also have amazon prime and netflix -- been that way for 3 or 4 years The antenna is square and kinda looks like it's made of wire fencing like you would put around your garden -- has 1 coax hookups on it

Gotta love that -- I have no tolerance anymore for assholes behind a counter

IBEJI here

Topher -- take a cruise thru the classifieds at Njhunter.com -- Lots of archery stuff goes up for sale there -- I took a deer this year with my 25 year old Golden eagle Orion MK2 -- the deer didn't care what threw the arrow -- I also took a deer with my new Ten point stealth crossbow Crossbow is cool -- a lot of guys are against it or lets say against the idea of the crossbow -- I say if it gets you in the woods then have at it

I'm sure we could find something -- let me look around my piles -- Even just a piece of 1/2 plate welded to the bottom would give the vice something to grab -- I have plenty of 1/2 plate And we are close -- probably 15 minutes

Kimber -- I can help out with the welder if you need -- I have a few...
