    986 1086

    1086s were very easy to turn up and a lot of people tried to use them like a 1486 or even a 1586. After years of use like that there isn't a lot left to them 30+ years later.

    Savage axis rifles

    Just curious - what is not built to last on a Savage rifle? I've seen a lot of old Savage rifles that have been abused and misused (namely people loading them with hot loads) that still function. The Savage action is one of the strongest on the market - if they would just stop messing with...

    Savage axis rifles

    A very good review of "base" line offering by manufacturers. http://www.chuckhawks.com/compared_bolt_action_economy_rifles.htm The Savage Axis and the Remington 783 are the bottom of the barrel.

    Savage axis rifles

    Actually the cheap synthetics are usually better than the cheap wood stocks used in years past. Savage wood stocks on their base rifles were crap, usually NOT walnut (cheap birch?) and the checkering was stamped. I bought two Marlin XS7s (basically the Savage 110) and replaced the stock on my...

    WW I Navy Photo's

    I read Castles of Steel a few years ago. Very interesting on how the Germans built a powerful modern Navy but never devised a strategy to use it.

    Don't get a farmer mad at you

    It will make you stupid enough to think running over police cars cars is a good idea though.

    Old house insulation

    If you want to do it yourself buy several cans of spray foam. Put it down around the outside edges of your foam board to seal it up and it will act as glue to hold it in place. I don't know if you run into condensation issues though...

    Update on 656 Fire

    I don't understand your comment on the choke. A 656 has a 33 gallon fuel tank and the air intake is higher than the engine manifold. Gas leaking by the fuel shut off solenoid goes to the engine before it would get to the air filter. If the hose running from the carb to the airfilter leaks -...

    Don't get a farmer mad at you

    Tend to agree, it would seem the pot was the least of this guy's mental problems.

    450 trans oil

    The original manuals for the TA equipped M, 300 and 400 specified gear oil (80w?). That was what I put in mine when I replaced the 4 gallon of water and 6 gallon of oil that was in the transmission when I bought it in 1998. Later I learned it should have been replaced with Hytran (or...

    Today's gasoline

    Agreed. Every tank we have is equipped with a filter, always been that way since the 1960s.

    Contour plowing or lack thereof

    It was called the Big Muddy decades before anyone was tilling the Ohio valley - let alone the Mississippi or Missouri valleys.

    You just described the exact opposite of what ethanol does......

    Oil price drop effect on Corn

    Your post doesn't make sense. I would assume that older contracts would have a HIGHER price for corn. Once those contracts are honored the current market rate makes their ethanol even more profitable. http://www.nasdaq.com/markets/corn.aspx?timeframe=3y Not all ethanol plants are the...

    Oil price drop effect on Corn

    What is so fortunate about it? Personally I like running a fuel that keeps my fuel system clean.
