  1. This is such a WONDERFUL offer, especially from a relatively new member of the group!  Please, please, everyone take advantage of this ONLY if you really need it to complete preparations for a child's hunt. THAUGHT is being very generous with a specific audience in mind.    He really is "paying it forward" and let's hope others are so inclined if they have the ability. 

    Thank you THAUGHT!

  2. Feast or famine.  At 74, I've seen this cycle before.  Gov't has poured trillions of $$ into the economy to defeat the effects of bad debt management and COVID.   Unless they plan on MUCH worse inflation than now, it will come to a halt and the cycle will turn.  To those who need a job done, if you can wait, be patient.  To those who have more work than they can use, save some for a rainy day,  The worm turns! Just one old man's viewpoint.

  3. Edge is correct if it's an old system with a pilot light. For at least the last 20 years most have an electic igniter rather than a pilot light. Makes diagnosis a bit more complicated but surely doable with rudimentary knowledge and tools.


  4. Depending on whether you are interested in only original Ranger wheels, there are other wheels with the same bolt pattern that may work for you.  For instance, I think Jeep YJs have the same 4.5x5" bolt pattern?  The backspacing may affect the fitment, but if you cant find exactly the original wheels you seek, there are probably other inexpensive alternatives.


  5. I've been reloading for 60 years and have stuff that at my age I will never shoot.  Perhaps if someone needs some of this I can help out. I picked out a few sealed boxes as illustration. I tried to price it at retail prices without shipping or taxes.  I live in Flagstaff.  If you don't see what you need, just ask, I may have it - many different calibers - but will not have any of the fancy new expensive bullets 😁, mostly pointed soft point copper/lead bullets.

    Not shown in the picture is a sealed 8lb metal can of IMR 4320 powder - it's the old square metal can!  $300

    3 boxes Hornady .17 25 gr  $50

    4 boxes Speer and Sierra .224 55g $70

    3 boxes Speer and Sierra .264 (6.5mm) 140g $125

    1 box Sierra .264 120g $40

    I'll try to see what else I have in sealed boxes.  Lots of the stuff is opened boxes I got over the past 50 years.
