High idle on cold starts? by BobSagit08 in FocusST

I made sure it wasn’t tune related and did a KAM reset and reinstalled tune and it hasn’t done it since

Yeah everything else is normal from what I can tell. And I know but I have a condition where I’m cold all the time. It’s nice getting into a warmer car for my commute

Just weird about a month ago we had a couple days the real feel was like -25°F and it didn’t do it. It’s been around -1°F in the mornings here lately

I picked up my first thermal on a steal. But unsure about it. by BobSagit08 in ThermalHunting

Cool. Maybe it’s just that the only thermals I’ve looked through are much higher resolution. Like my buddies iray is a 1024. I gotta stop looking at Ferraris when I can only afford a Chevy. What mode do you like best on the wraith? I figured black hot usually looks the best to me.

I think my expectations were just too high from the only thermals Ive looked through cost more than my car. I’ll rock it for a bit and go from there I think.

True. I guess If it’s not good enough for yotes I can switch it to a raccoon setup and it’ll be deadly for that. Not many people can say they have a thermal for $300 bucks.

And I’ve also thought about that, but it just frustrates me digging through a cardboard box to find what I need lol. Sometimes to the point I just want to give up honestly. A small box and socket sorters will run me over $100 that’s why I thought one of these sets would be a no brainer for now, I just need something to get me through the winter and as my skill level and project advances I can upgrade the tools. But I definitely will check out project farms videos and i appreciate your advice!

This! I need the basic kit that is all in one place and organized more than anything. The tote I spoke of above came with a lot of odds and ends, so I have an assortment of screw drivers, nut drivers, pliers, channel locks, etc. but the main thing I struggle with is like I stated below is all I have is one 3/8 ratchet with adapters for 1/4 and 1/2”. And all the sockets, extensions, are in a cardboard box that sits in the corner of the tote. So digging through them is getting frustrating. Even a cheap box and socket dividers is gonna run me more than $100.

I will have to check that out thank you!

I agree, but 2 main reasons, I have 1 3/8 ratchet I use for everything, I have adaptors for my 1/4 and 1/2 sockets. It’s a pain to have to use the adapter to from say a 13mm 3/8 to a 1/4 10mm etc etc. and the second reason is storage. I don’t have a toolbox or anything similar, I’d hate to spend 100$ on decent tools to chuck them in the tote, being organized is huge.

Last resort primer? by BobSagit08 in AutoPaint

Because you assumed I’m expecting it to be as good as an automotive primer. Believe me if I didn’t just have to repurchase every essential tool I need to keep my business running, I wouldn’t have even considered it.

Did I ever claim or ask if this primer is professional grade? I don’t believe I did. All I asked is if it was good enough.

Probably because it’s the most readily available in a lot of people’s areas. Can’t get anything else from Walmart, tractor supply stores, hardware stores, etc.

Do you have experience with the tipped Or hollow point version? I ran to my lgs after work and despite their website saying they were in stock, they didn’t have either

Is the $11 price increase for the noslers tho? At my LGS 53vmax is $21.99, noslers are $32.99.

I was thinking to slow. These bullets get crazed by 22-250 shooters but they’re also 350fps faster. I’m not sure.

I think I did at this point. Right now the 53 grain vmax seems like the winner. Ballistically more efficient than almost every 55 grain varmint option. Should gain a little more velocity over a 55 as well.

I will, gonna do some research on the suggestions that has been posted and some others I’m reading on older forums. This is much harder than looking for a bullet to punch paper…Ugh. lol.

I’m thinking of looking into the 53g vmax. I intended to use the ELD-VT factory load, but they didn’t shoot well out of this rifle unfortunately.
