Just got back from the range in B-ville, I love the trigger, but I am still getting used to the Heine straight eight sights. seems like everything I was shooting was low and left 20 yards. I was shooting free hand no rest. I feel it was the remmy bulk pack ammo I was using, the CCI brass loads I had seemed to shoot better. I could take the center out at 7 yds. Course it didn't help that the guys next to me were pelting me with 9mm casings, and the police training that was going on in the wing next to me. 5 guys emptying full mags at 10 feet as fast as they could pull the trigger. when I get comfortable with the gun I will post targets

picksbigwagon, NICE artillery!! MY 1st handgun was a Taurus. I believe it was a model 66A,(.357 double action, stainless revolver). I wish NOW that I'd never traded it for a .357 cal Winchester 94 trappers rifle. I'm sure you'll be happy with 'er. Phred52

Just got back from the range at the casino (actually in the health club, but right next to the casino), and I think I solved my problem with low and left. I was using the wrong grip with my 1911 and I was allowing my trigger finger to get in too deep (boy does that sound wrong doesn't it?) A guy was there who was shooting a springfield 1911, didn't like his at all, too font heavy and the beavertail was too small.

      Problems with Yetti

      By rundrave · Posted

      got this tackled today took about 3 hours to get both sides done. Didnt even get to use a torch....   Thought I was golden with just jacking it up and I could get to everything but no luck. Had to remove the entire axle hub and brake assembly to get to what I needed. Was a pain but still better then taking off the entire pivot arm.    Axle bearings were already greased and in great shape thankfully. Got both leaf springs installed and its ready for the road again.   Probably going to have my electric brakes checked, I am not touching anything with the brake drums. Based on what I saw it doesn't look like my electric brakes have been working anyway. Brakes are nice to have if its slippery out

      It’s done automatically.  You might need an actual person to clear that log in stuff up.   Trash your laptop history if you haven’t tried that already.

      we had some nice weather yesterday and this conundrum was driving me crazy  so I drove up to the house to take another look. I got a bunch of goodies via ups yesterday (cables,  winch ratchet parts, handles, leaf springs etc).   I wanted to make sure the new leaf springs I got fit. I got everything laid out and ready to go. Will be busy this weekend with kids stuff and too cold to fish anyway, but I will try to get back up there again next weekend and get it done. I don't think it will be bad once I get it lifted up.    For anyone in the google verse, the leaf springs are 4 leafs and measure 25 1/4" eye  to eye per Yetti. I didnt want to pay their markup so just got something else comparable rated for the same weight.   I am a first time wheel house owner, this is all new to me. My house didn't come with any handles for the rear cables? I was told this week by someone in the industry that cordless drills do not have enough brake to lower it slow enough and it can damage the cables and the ratchets in the winches.  I put on a handle last night and it is 100% better than using a drill, unfortatenly I found out the hard way lol and will only use the ICNutz to raise the house now.
