Our Nesco is well worth the money, but you can always use your oven set to the lowest temp. GO BUCKS!

You earned it Brother! USAF MSgt ret 28 years and change.

Thanks for stopping by. I ran Wolf, Golden Tiger, Tula and a couple others with no problems except an occaissional light strike that a stronger hammer spring and maybe enhanced pin will solve.

In what way?

Thanks for stoppin by!

No issues at all there. I bought 2 of a few different mags to test then settled on the C Products Dura Mags that have the best rep for reliability, especially running brass cased ammo. The best deal was at an outfit that doesn't ship to Maine (sales tax conflicts), but he ships most everywhere else. I even have 10 & 5 rd mags for bench shooting and hunting. I have another video where I did some (initial) Mag testing. It might be on my MAINEiac Outdoors channel where I migrated most of my shooting/outdoors content.

@@maineiachomestead7550 thank you Sir for taking the time to reply. Can you point me the direction of places to buy ammo for this gun? Everywhere I’ve looked its either sold out or selling steel which I’ve heard is never good for a gun. Thank you in advance

No complaints at all. I haven't shot it a lot, but it goes BANG every time I do. Reliable mags have always been the main issue, I've had good success with C Products Duramags. I started running brass, boxer primed ammo, which pretty much eliminates any light strikes, plus you can reload em.

To make people like you ask silly questions like that.

@@maineiachomestead7550 LMAO

@@colemahaney4208 Actually I've gotten much more proficient with the saw since this "First use" vid was done. Building a house, used it a lot. Still haven't used the clamps.

@@maineiachomestead7550 i always use my clamps

@@maineiachomestead7550 and get silly answers from people like you

The lawn mower scares the groundhogs.

I do, but IIRC haven't even strung it. My old fart arms don't have the umph to draw it.

@@maineiachomestead7550 any interest in selling it to a shooter that can use a bow string draw that #dage?

@@farleyplumbing74 Actually, yes. We're talking about the Hunter, right? I also have a Palomino, but it has some delamination near the grip.

@@farleyplumbing74 email me at tnicmh@gmail to set it up and I can figure out who I'm talking to here. lol

@@maineiachomestead7550 ok will do

You're right it was the middle rib. It amazing how the noggin goes blank just when you need it. I appreciate the honest comments, its very helpful. I do edit out a lot, but you'll never see a slick, polished presentation here, just an old fart rambling in front of a cheap camera. I'm not monetized or (God forbid) sponsored so all you'll ever see from me is well, me. And thanks for the Sub! Just FYI, I've started moving all my shooting stuff over to my MAINEiac Outdoors channel, do stop by sometime soon.

I tried to speak slow enough for the Wolverines to understand. LOL

IIRC, yes from the tea kettle just off the boil.

Hey Steve, thanks for stopping by. No drums in my plans, sorry. And you pointed out yet another noob omission. I was 50 yards away from some 8" AR 500 plates. I now have 5 plates on a pipe hanger set up from Yankee Thunder. The gun is far more accurate than I am, the red dot helps a lot with that. And just between you, me and the fence post, I cheated on my Chair Force annual qualifications. I kept track of my shot counts and shot all the most difficult targets prone. Nobody ever caught on. I figured if somebody was shootin at me, I sure as crap wasn't gonna be standin there tryin to steady down on em. :D

@@maineiachomestead7550 No worries about the omission, I was just curious. I have the Komrad- which is on an AK platform. Not sure I like the AK setup, hence why I'm looking for the 7.62x39 in an AR platform. Oh, and that's not cheating, that's just doing it as it would be done. The fact you even touched a weapon in the Air Force is a WIN LOLOL ;)

@@steveninesling8263 There are several offerings out there for "AR 47s". Still pretty happy with the WW. At my age the red dot is pretty much a requirement. I was pretty invested in AK gear so it was a boit of a kick in the wallet to make the switch to AR mags. C Products have done well for me so far. I started out in Security so we had to do the boom stick thing twice a year, then I switched to Aircraft Maint. and only got to play once a year.

C Prod Def mags have been consistent performers for me. Have fun with it.

Hi Nate, thanks for stopping by and asking for some advise. Understand that I'm in no way an expert at anything. I shoot for fun. After a 29 year USAF career I'm used to the AR platform so When I saw that the major issues ARs had years ago with the 7.62x39 ammo, I made the switch from the AKM. Also realize I don't run through 1000s or even hundreds of rounds a month. With the current ammo prices and availability, I'm just not doing a lot of testing right now. I've run Tulla, Wolf Polyformance and Golden Tiger through it and with MY gun so far I've got the best groups with GT. Other than a couple light primer strikes (berdan primers are harder), I've been completely happy with my WW SRC. I'm in the process of switching to brass/boxer ammo now so I expect the light strikes will be a distant memory. I'll be using more steel as well as running some brass on woodchucks when I see em so keep an eye on my channel to see how that works out.

@@maineiachomestead7550 Awesome, I will keep in the loop here then. The guy who recommended this rifle to me said something about it having a slightly longer firing pin to help with the harder primers and such?

@@CT-uz3bf The Enhance Firing Pin. I think it does and the lower is a multi cal model so I think (don't know for sure) it might have the higher power hammer spring as well. WW is pretty good at timely responses so don't be shy about emailing them with questions. Their phone will likely be busy, but you could try that as well.

@@CT-uz3bf I forgot to mention that I've had zero problems with my C Products duramags.

@@maineiachomestead7550 Absolutely appreciate the responses man. You’ve earned a subscriber thats for sure. Stay safe out there.

Thanks Sally. Checked your channel...This channel doesn't have any content.

Well, SOMEONE forgot their humor meds today. But then we can expect crap comments like this from know-it-alls with.....This channel has no videos. Oh and its HEAR not here, genius.

He's been my (unknowing) mentor for several months now. He gave me a lot of helpful tips when I picked up the nuc and Jen Lund was a wealth of knowledge as well. I'm a sponge and soaking up everything I can find.

Thanks Peter. They ate about a quart of simple syrup in 24 hours. We bought 20 lbs of sugar today to keep them going. There were several feeding when I refilled today.

Its the Caldwell Deadshot Field Pod. I got mine from Amazon.

Thanks for stopping by!

And the boat moved forward anyway. More "expert" advise from a no content YTer.

Thanks for stopping by and glad I could help. BTW, the boat is still swingin from the rafters.

@@maineiachomestead7550 , well I installed mine to the unfinished ceiling inside the utility building, I attached a 2 by 4 by 8 underneath the trusses with four 90 degree angle braces and sixteen lag bolts. It was a job, but I got it done. I had to tie two loops of rope to suspend the 2*4 on both ends while I attached it on both ends. It took me a little bit to figure out how to run the line through the locking mechanism because the instructions are not clear . I assembled the hoist on a saw horse before hanging it......it's much easier to install it to a finished ceiling, but ya have to work with what you have and be creative.....thanks for the video......👍

If you find one in stock I say jump on it. I will say, the stock (mil spec?) trigger feels a bit stiff at first, but that's what I qualified with (Expert, btw) for almost 30 years in the USAF. After shooting a little I really didn't notice it tho. I'm heavily invested in the ammo already so getting to run it thru an AR - and a good quality gun made just down the road from me - is the best of both worlds for me. Thanks for stopping buy! Hope to see YOUR video soon.

Well thanks for your service and thanks for responding . I found it available on Atlantic firearms web sight .. there asking 950$ . Is that a good price?

@@Art-st1qv Thanks. Yeah that's a great price. I paid about 1200 with tax and shipping for mine. I'm sure you'll like it.

Thanks for stopping by. I should be back at it pretty soon. Maine winters ain't a sleigh ride.

TRANSLATED: "It is his first time that he uses that tool that he does not know how to use the presses or accommodate the wood first before cutting and it is a good engine although it is not the best brand but it fulfills its mission" Gracias

I just put a Tacticon Falcon V1 3x Magnifier on the other day and it makes all the difference in the world for my tired old eyes. I’ll do a vid on it and the Romeo 5 when I return from overseas, maybe June or July.

Yes it did. The saw's at a different location atm so can't answer your last 2 questions. NOTE: the "work stop" doubles as a platform extension for longer stock as well, but I used the saw stand for that here.

Thanks. There's a little movement, but its simple enough to jack up and add or delete shims to relevel. When the skirting and wrap around veranda (also skirted) are done it should be more stable.

@@maineiachomestead7550 I am glad you're thinking of this. Smaller is less to HVAC, but a lot of weight in a smaller space. Do think about a second bathroom for Irina. It's a truly American luxury she would love.

@@hollychapman4052 Yeah, 2nd Bath. Planning a composting outhouse soon. No AC. All windows will be protected from the summer sun, especially when the verandas are done. Heat is no issue. With just a small propane heater at its lowest setting, it was 52F inside & 20F and breezy outside. In floor radiant will be installed before next winter. We'll have to open windows in Jan & Feb.

@@maineiachomestead7550 be careful with propane,. And unlike our friend, buy some homeowners insurance. Yes, during construction as well. Good news on the 2nd bath !! Thumbs up.

@@hollychapman4052 ROFL The outhouse was a joke. She DOES want a solar outdoor shower tho. Ins is done and the propane was professionally installed tho I've done it several times myself. I know how to NOT make a rocket when I need to.
