    Remington 597/.17 HMR recall

    This is a safety issue also, but figured Rural living was the best place to post: Remington is posting 1/4 page ads in various gun magazines about the recall on their .17 hmr 597 and Remington branded 17 hmr ammo - as it is not safe for use in semi-auto rifles. They are offering a $10 coupon...

    3510 electrical question

    This weekend I was working along, punching holes in the clay and setting posts for my new pole barn.

    NH TC40DA vs. Challenger MT275B

    in april '06 when I was doing my shopping, I looked at a challenger 40HP w/loader and box blade and it was new for $17,500 - but this was the last of their "A's" while they were waiting for the "B" series to show up. either way, $20k sounds high to me for a used machine - blue or yellow. (or...
