    Land ownership timeline? (BLM to private)

    Yes, maybe visit county assessor/auditor to do some research. In person or online if they support that. You can also pay a fee to a Title Company for a: “Chain of Title”.

    Mortgages

    Put 20% down and skip PMI. Go with fixed rate. 30 year is lower monthly however rate might be higher than 15 or 20 year term. Plan on refinance when rates go down. You may have to suffer the current rates for 5-7 years (who knows) until the refi. Hopefully your career is just starting and...

    For Sale Bullets - .277 SBD-2 Badlands Precision

    This includes one complete box of 50 and one box of 30. I don't have any notes from the range session where I sent the missing 20, but it would have been in my 6.8 Western.

    Custom browning x-bolt?

    I had to google 270 eclipse and I see it is a very pretty laminate thumbhole stock. I've never had a custom action or even had an action trued but on a production rifle you might get lucky and be trued or close to it. If it shot well with the current barrel then that might give you a clue...

    Guests for Breakfast

    We had to put up a yard fence because I was worried about coyotes, foxes, bobcat, and mountain lion too. No mountain lion sightings in 10 years but was a black bear in the neighborhood a few years ago. Miniature dachshund survived a tussle with coyote. This 3x3 deer might have gored my dog...

    Browning X Bolt White Gold

    The Maple does look good. Some have octagonal barrel which should shoot fine, but I'm still curious on your experience with that barrel should you buy it.

    Browning X Bolt White Gold

    I’d guess should give 1MOA or better. I just prepped my new x-bolt mountain pro yesterday for tomorrow’s range day. The mountain pro is also stainless except cerakote finished instead of polished like the White Gold. Both my steel x-bolts shoot 1MOA (actually one is 0.5 MOA) and I expect...

    Brass scratch problem. 🎶

    Currently, my process is going like this: I spray Frankford Arsenal lube on the case bodies only (no spray on neck and shoulder). Then I dip the neck into the dry graphite powder and then I full length size with expander ball removed. Not too messy but does get a wipe down on the outside...

    Cougar crashes and rolls!

    The cat got his eyes back on deer while he was still rolling then took off as soon as could get paws on ground! If deer had body slammed the tree (missed tree by inches) cat might have got him before they left the camera view.

    280AI and Superperformance

    Never tried Superperformance but many of the powders in that burn range (around 4350's) seem to be versatile. Part of me thinks it would be a good match for 140 grain class bullets in 280ai. What performance difference did you see between IMR4831 and H4831? I'm getting ready to try out...
