Buy it from them direct of Amazon. Before you do, go to Fry's and buy Amazon gift cards for Amazon hopefully at 4x fuel points. Use the fuel points to save money on gas.

Transmission Shop Recommendations East Valley for 2006 Dodge Ram 1500
Hoss50 replied to eastvalleyjerry's topic in Classified Ads
Randy's has built some pretty stout transmissions for Dodges for my buddies. I believe my buddy Frankie still works there. He is good people. -
Call Andrew at Letzroll Offroad. With gears I always say go at least 1 step lower the. You think you need. If you want 3.42 look at 3.55 or 3.73. If you have OD 3.73 is a good gear with 30-32 inch tires.

I have continually thought about fluting the barrel on my savage because it is a heavy pig. Even 6oz would be a little relief of weight. I have other projects that need the money first though I think.

How much weight does the flute save?

Avery's in springerville has a RV park. Call up and ask for Lance. He is a friend of mine and a great guy. You can get some good BBQ from his restaurant too.

You are definitely in no mans land. I am in the same boat except about 4-5 years behind you. You have plenty of points to draw a lot of nice whitetail hunts, but not nearly enough for a strip tag and won't for many years from what I can see on the draw spreadsheets.

Just build a 6.5 Swedish AI...you know you want to...

Him and this site.... I am not even all in with super high end stuff but I have dropped more money in the last few years then I had spent my whole life prior.

A mini-split is a good choice too if you are in it for the long haul.

I have a small 1 in my garage that rolls around. It is helpful when you are directly in front of it. The best thing to do would be mount one outside with the discharge in the garage. Remember that you need airflow in and out of the garage for these to work well. If you lock yourself in the garage with a cooler with no venting you are just going to create Florida in July in your garage which will suck. I try to put mine sitting in front of my open garage side door and keep the main garage door open about a foot or two.

I would say 6.5x55 or AI if it will fit in the short action with enough room for long bullets. Old school for the win.

Does anyone have any tips on fishing here? Is the main pond near the Rec Center the best pond? It seems to be full of a ton of algae right now. We fished this morning in the lowest pond with little action bottom fishing. We moved to the main pond and saw tons of algae so I switched to float fishing and had a little luck with some small bluegill. And thoughts or advice? I am working on getting my 6 year old hooked on some fishing. He caught 2 today and was pretty stoked.

It is a love hate relationship for me. Personally I hate it, professionally I love it. I sell air conditioners so hot is good for my wallet.

Good thing I don't really have friends... It is an easy quick way to get out with my kid and not burn a whole day going to the lake.

a lot of the HVAC supply houses are wholesale only though so keep that in mind. If you are not a contractor they might not sell to you. Grainger will have the parts too but you will pay a premium for them. Some appliance parts stores carry HVAC fan motors and caps and are more retail friendly.

Ryan at Comfort Experts. Tell him Harley @ Sigler referred you. They (2 guys both named Ryan own the company) are one of my customers and are trustworthy guys in the east valley.

I am interested in info on these to if anyone has any. -
I have a 10x14 kodiak and a normal buddy heater, not the big buddy that uses 2 tanks. For most cool and cold nights it is fine. I run it on the BBQ tank like others. I picked up a CO sensor at home depot that I keep inside just to be safe. It works really well for most nights. We did have to spend a night in tele tent in unit 7 a few years ago in December. It was probably 10* plus wind that night. We had 1 buddy heater on high all night and another buddy on low. We survived but I wouldn't call it super comfortable, but we didn't shiver all night either. 95% of the time the buddy heater will get it done nicely. 5% will not be comfortable, but you will live and be happy you had it.

If you are going to have a barrel made for 1:7 twist why chamber it in 224 Valkerie? .22-250 or .220 Swift or probably a bunch of others do the same thing or better if you give them a 1:7 twist barrel.
-
Does anyone have any info or feedback on these? A buddy of mine just picked up a savage axis in 22-250 and mentioned he might be able to get a deal on a Falcon Menace to put on it. I don't know jack about this brand and thought I would reach out for input. Looking at the scope he sent me a pick of it looks alot like an Athlon Argos with the turrets offset on the sides of the scope. Thoughts?

That is a nice piece. I have had several Ruger's over the years and love them, and this is a fine example of a very uncommon one that is in great shape.

North High School had one in the JROTC program. They still might. The range was built in the bottom of the football stadium in the JROTC classroom area.

I think 50mm scopes look funky on alot of rifles especially small/medium size ones. They look to bulky. It also pulls your head up higher off the rifle A good 40-44mm with a 30mm tube will transmit alot of good light and keep your head closer to the stock.
