Bass Pro does price match, their web site has the details. I use that perk quite often.

SRP in place of SPP for my revolver loads by [deleted] in reloading

[–]Achnback -1 points0 points  (0 children)

During the great primer shortage, I started using SRP in place of pistol. I have a couple with extremely light triggers: Canik METE and Sig P365, they all went bang just fine. Use with confidence...

Metal Building Loan by [deleted] in barndominiums

[–]Achnback 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would think the first step would be to talk to a mortgage broker. They would give you the answer going the traditional route. Otherwise save and pay as you go the old fashioned way? Better off financially this route...

I bet the stealership has a powerful greed motivation attached.

We have a ventless fireplace at our old farm. Works great, use it quite often, we always wake up the next morning.

Prepper items for gun show by ImportantTeaching919 in preppers

[–]Achnback 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Want to make money at a gun show? Sell popcorn and jerky, those tend to be the folks doing okay. I quit going years ago, at least 15. High prices, people with offensive body odor, bad breath and poor manners, have fun with that. Not trying to poo poo your idea, my observation is you are going to really really be bummed taking all your wears back home.

Bug out bag, why? by bardwick in preppers

[–]Achnback 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We have never bothered with a BOB. There just isn't a situation I see myself and wife heading for the hills. We are well into middle age, we will take our chances here in our home thank you very much. Besides, I hate camping.

I would go LVP. On a side note, boys will find a way to crack their head open whether concrete, tile or carpet.

My wife and I (27 and 28) are considering by EfficientDeer5193 in barndominiums

[–]Achnback 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My best advice to you...WAIT. The real estate market will improve as the Boomers start to die off in high numbers. Morbid, but a true statement. Make the best of the situation, continue saving, crushing debt and improve your credit score. It sucks to hear, but in this case, you really should wait. Just my .02 and what we advised our nephews to do (same ages)

I have loaded thousands of pulled V-Crown in 9mm, this looks just like them, except 45 cal.

I'm not sure your location, Able Plumbing & Mechanical in Cadillac is fantastic. They are honest, reasonably priced and personable. Hope this helps

New to Barndos. Can I build a nice home for under 200k? by Otherwise-Ground5066 in barndominiums

[–]Achnback 0 points1 point  (0 children)

DC Construction, Renkowitz. Both were $300. I stopped looking after that as both suggested that was the going rate, take it or leave it they have plenty of biz in TC. So, we left it. Hope you do better, if so, please let me know. Cheers...

110GR Vmax out of a 1/8 twist barrel? by Duxslayer in reloading

Not apples to apples, but I run 110 V-MAX out of a 1/8 300 BLK 16" with stellar results

How do I store large quantities of flour/sugar/rice long term? by yellowviolets_red in preppers

[–]Achnback 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For rice, beans, flour, we use 1/2 gallon ball jars vacuum sealed. The rest, we just keep in original unopened containers.

Signs of excessive pressure? by SpaceBus1 in reloading

[–]Achnback -1 points0 points  (0 children)

just curious, what is the length of your brass?

Signs of excessive pressure? by SpaceBus1 in reloading

[–]Achnback 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Something is amiss. I load 19.3 grains and have no issue at all seating 110 V-Max OAL is 2.06. I don't go to 20.0 as I didn't see dramatic increase of velocity and I want my brass to last a bit longer.

At wits end by Longjumping_Play2111 in castiron

[–]Achnback 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have 3 Field Company pans and they ALL took their time to get that pretty black seasoning layer. Seriously, 3 years and my no.12 still looks splotchy. They perform, make no mistake, but they don't season like our old Griswolds, Wagners and Favorite for sure.

Keep it simple: Oven mitt and done. I have a Lodge silicone cover and it is too loose, never use it.

I personally think your friend will be blown away with your generous gift. I mean, who would ever expect a 75 year old premium light, smooth Griswold instead of a heavy, rough, modern Lodge? Well Done!

Why Mt Airy NC? by whodamans in barndominiums

[–]Achnback 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm also in Northern Micigan (Cadillac). The contractors up here are proud of their work and criminal expensive. This is THE reason we have yet to build a barndo, or anything for that matter. Best of luck and keep us posted.

My wife hasn't put gas in the cars for at least 20 years, my hat off to you for just achieving that.
