Thanks, good to know! I haven't found a tidy 3.2 with under 300,000k yet, so I'm looking at the 2.5 diesel. There's a few closer to 200k but I'm stretching the budget a bit (really don't want to...

Sounds better than the old bunny in a billy over a campfire.... Although I did come up with a decent stew couple months back. Shot several bunnies with the 17hmr and decided to cook em up at camp...

I'm still looking for a lightweight sleeping mat that isn't a heap of crap. When I do finally find one, it'll probably be that. Actually thinking of going back to the old foam mat after reading...

I use a small cabinet scraper to remove old finishes. If you don't have one you can easily make one from an old hand saw blade. Paint stripper works well but I don't like working with it, and the...

I have a friend who brings deer home with a .303 and he loves it. But most good ones I see around are $300+ at that point I'd be putting a few more coins in and getting a 270 or 243. I've seen some...
