Best Budget (under $2k) non Chinese made 34mm FFP 5-25x range scopes?

These are usually over $3.5k but are heavily discounted now but still a bit over $2k:


March 4.5-28 still one of my favorite scopes

Trouble with Targets (Spotting them)

I'll give it a try. I had my Vortex Razor Gen 2 this weekend with the same issue. Ironically My (Vortex) binos work fine. (I think its the left eye taking over as Ireally have to conventrate to range a target or see the HUD which is in the right.)
Interesting about the binos. Next time you’re having difficulty try switching to left handed and use your left eye and see if that does the trick, if so you know it’s your eye. Also try your binos with the one objective covered and see if that changes.

Projectile Choice for Defensive Loads?

If it gets to that point I don't, but I'm trying to stay legal prior to that because nothing gives Democrats more pleasure than fucking over normal gun owners. They stay away from criminals because those knuckleheads might actually shoot back...
Well..... maybe consider a lever action or better yet a M1 Garand.
You can't fault the M1 and it is legal down there.
Hits like a freight train.
And almost every young man of every body type learned how to shoot it well. 30-06 reloading components are available.

Looking for 45-70 subsonic recipe

I would really recommend trying to track down flaky, fast burning powder like Unique, Red Dot, or Bullseye if you want to run light bullets subsonic. These are really the only option for a super quiet sub load now that Trailboss is not available. I have also used N340 with good success.

In terms of other options for heavier bullets - I would consider looking at a stick powder like one of the Vihta N110-120 series. These are easy to ignite in reduced loads and tend to burn fairly cleanly. I can say from experience that ball powders such as H110 often suffer from inconsistent ignition with low case fill and I do not recommend them.

getting into prs rimfire, Tips?

Why the Savage? Wouldn't a T1x, CZ457 or Bergara come under base class price?
All of which would be upgradable into the future.
what would I even want to upgrade on the savage? all the other options that were good for base come equipped with crappy cheapo plastic stocks that I can't shoot worth shit off a barricade. savage comes with MDT and flush fit 10 round mags.
also if upgraded, it wouldn't be base class...
you realize it already comes with an mdt one piece chassis. I'm allowed to bed the rifle into the chassis if I need to for it to shoot it's best and if I'm not up to the task I know an old pro who can help me one weekend.
comes with a light factory adjustable trigger
factory threaded for suppressor...
I'm not seeing what the problem is honestly, unless you just don't like savage or mdt or something which I can sort of understand because I own an AI and love it dearly but common... it's 22lr... the whole gun was around 500$ new... I would have got used but that wasn't possible.
