Not your grandpa's tractor
irish ike, SASS #43615 replied to Warden Callaway's topic in SASS Wire Saloon
The "bigger" equipment actually saves money on diesel. It cuts the stalks, strips the corn, shells it and spits out cobs and silage. That and the space between rows is now about 1/2 of what it used to be. More bushels/acre on the same land. 80 acre farms are now nothing but hobby farms. They've been bought up and turned into 1,000 acre farms. No one raises beef, hogs or chickens. It's all produced on large feed lots. -
Starline makes 40-65. But if your not fussy about OLA they are .015 short of the OAL.

Recomendations for a Quigley Match rifle - 45-70 or 45-???
irish ike, SASS #43615 replied to Tracker Jim's topic in SASS Wire
Shoulder friendly, brass is everywhere, less powder burned, more load data, more rifles available. 45-70. Posters say SHiloh SHarps or C SHarps but unless things have changed they're 18 months back order */- -
No one has mentioned sights. 500 yards you will need a good vernier sight. Adjusts for wind and elevation. Front sight . a hooded sight that has inserts for various light conditions and a spirit level to keep the rifle square to the target. About $500. See Montana Vintage Arms for sights. You didn't say if you were wanting to just bang steel, plinking, or get your hits down to 1 or 2 MOA. 405 bullets loose accuracy after about 300 yards.

The 501C(7) is a good way to go I think you still hae to file each year to show income vs. previous holdings. The only way I know of to protect the property owners and members is t form a non-profit corporation. We are incorporated, we file officers and update any other required info. Then insurance for sure. 3 layers of protection, sort of. You still can be sued.

Disunity Among Native Americans
irish ike, SASS #43615 replied to Subdeacon Joe's topic in SASS Wire Saloon
I was once interviewing to design a medical office building for a local reservation. When we were done presenting I asked one of the leaders there if the waring between tribes was a real thing. He said it was. And the hatred and bias still exists today.
