I’m back to killing trees and skidding. Brakes work good again, and the fuel pump no longer leaks oil. There was a burr on the casting face. A little filing action took care of that.

You've got brakes and oil leak fixed,now if you had some saws you could be logging

My friend John Paul has been pretty sick. Not flu, not covid. He could use our prayers.

It's a regular problem. Grandpa did great. Worked hard, built a company. His offspring were slowly spoiled rotten and lost everything he worked for....

Prayers.

 

[Lnk]

Two three is livable, the rest is pretty painful, yeah.
It's being rebuilt now, Walther precision barrel, 70cm full barrel.
Thought about buying a recoil stock from US that fits a fat barrel.

I mainly use it for beaver hunting lol, 3-400 metre distance

You must have some tough beavers there @Tor R

Believe it or not tractors were a small part of allis chalmers. They built tons of mining equipment for grinding taconite rock and made our kilns at the mine. It’s hard to believe such a giant company can falter bad enough to not exist anymore for the most part. It’s part of fiat group like case and new holland.

The company I work for was started by 3 engineers who left Allis Chalmers. Water pumps for power plants/boiler feed were another big item they made, and that is what I work on. The 3 founders saw the end coming and set out on their own while the getting was good.

Brakes are definitely nice, and at the same time, totally obnoxious.

What bullets weight do you typically use?

180 grain Barnes X, muzzle speed 1050 m/s

There hasn't been one that has escaped yet lol.
There are some little ones at that distance, especially when we tend to shoot them at dusk

That’s moving right along for a 180gr pill! Bad medicine for whatever swallows it…

It must have been at least 15 years since I sent it to a gunsmith and got it back with a Walther precision barrel, I think it's 70cm long now, and the barrel has no profile. I haven't used it since it came back.

Wonder how it will run with more modern powder and a better bullet choice than what I had in my time.
Barnes X 180 grain and 121 grain Hodgon H870.

I had planned to change the bullets to 165 grain Swift Scrirocco.

I had also found a fancy recoil stock from the US that suited the thickness of the barrel, but I never got that far.

Nowadays, calibers like 30-378 are so dangerous that the police say that gun applications in the caliber are not being granted.

I personally will never buy another Taurus anything after the p.o.s raging bull .454 i had.

Not trying to convince anyone just telling my experience
I have little experience with the modern taurus revolvers the 80s/90s I'm familiar with i had a few .357s don't remember anything just not a revolver guy
a new tracker .44 mag i had was fine no problems just to expensive to reload for.
Going back to the early 2000s i had a pt99 9mm and pt101 .40 that were excellent
a few ago Year's now i started with the first tx .22 and i couldn't tell you how many thousands of rounds are though it
It was everyone's favorite until the tx .22 compact was introduced and i put a optic on it's the new favorite.
Me and my friends have multiples of the 9mms g2c,g3,g3c,gx4, gx4 carry and my latest favorite ts9
My ccw trainer friend has several for loaners classes he lets students shoot as much ammo as they want to bring.

They have made it easier to apply for a gun permit with an online system, but they removed some wildcat calibers like 30-378.
That said, my weatherby only has a higher value after this lol

Good morning friends ,

Yesterday was one of those fix it days.

My front loading washer, that I brought 2nd hand probably 12yrs ago needed new drum bearings and a new seal. i"m guessing it was about 6yrs ago that i had to replace them, I knew what had to be done, so I was waiting for the day it really needed to be done.
The drum comes out the front, and then it comes in half and then you can knock the inner drum outta the bearings etc .

Anyway for aprox £15 ($20) and about 6hrs work, it should hopefully last another 6 or so yrs

Btw I didn’t get pics of the shaft for dall
