Low end Torque Values- Borka vs Wiha

I've got to mount some optics, so I'm in the market for an in/lb torque wrench

What I mainly wanna know is the ranges of torque values I'm gonna be dealing with. That will tell me what I need:
-Scope bases/pic rails:
-Scope rings, bottom:
-Scope rings, top:
-Action screws:
-turret screws?
-anything else i'm forgetting?

Is there anything I would need to go lower than 10 in/lb for?
Is there anything I need to go higher than 50 in/lb for?

I've got an AC Delco (automotive brand) digital wrench that has a 3/8 square drive. It goes from 44-400 something in/lb. I use this for muzzle devices, or anything in the 3-30ish FT/LB range.

So I've narrowed my options down to the Borka and Wiha. Both have great reviews. If the Wiha had the same range, I'd have bought it already, as I prefer its design to the Borka.
Both seem reportedly comparable in accuracy.
Both are roughly the same price. ($175 for the Borka, & $150-180 for the Wiha, w/neccesary 1/4" adapter for american bits)

Now, if there are things I'm gonna need to go higher than 50 in/lb for, but they're very unlikely to happen in the field, then the 10-50 sounds fine. If not, the Borka seems like the better option. But, if there's various things beyond 70 in/lb that, are are highly likely to need attention in the field, then the Borka has also lost its appeal. Since I'd have take my larger wrench with me anyways. The main thing I don't like about the Borka is how your grip has to change based on the value you select. If it was a screwdriver style like the Wiha, I'd have already bought it.

My goal is to have something handheld, for my range bag, which is the main issue with my ACDelco. It's rather large and not very useable with one hand if I have to hold the gun. Definitely suited to things clamped in a vise. It's also heavy, and comes in a long bulky box. (I did consider the Fixit sticks, but I've passed on that option due to its design. No need to recommend that one, I'm aware lots of guys use and love them.)

Quick question for the "watch guys" on the Hide here...

Hi Hide,

I recently got into automatic watches- I personally find the mechanics behind them to be absolutely fascinating. This should be a quick an easy question but for those that have more experience than I do with automatic watches- what has been your experience with their accuracy as compared to an atomic clock. Granted I know that a quartz movement is going to be be more accurate but it just lacks the 'nuances' I'll say that I feel is so interesting with this particular animal.

If it's of any help- I'm happy to share what brands/models I'm playing with here & my experiences... They're both Hamilton's... from what I can tell both using the same Swiss movements, one field watch with a titanium housing, the other a more... dressy watch with what I'm all but sure is a stainless steel housing. The more dressy watch has a date box (so maybe a minor difference in the Swiss movement that they use).

I've been playing around with the field watch almost exclusively trying to nail down the accuracy and my longest test has been a day or two over 3 weeks and if I'm doing my math correctly I'm running fast just about 8 seconds a day.

I know that different brands have different tolerances but I was just curious what other's experiences were using automatic watches. 8 seconds a day (one way or the other) might not sound like a tremendous amount but the compounded effect can be... rather interesting I'll say. Likely this is just the 'nature of the beast' with mechanical timepieces but is +/- 8 seconds a day what you're seeing and if you use mechanical/automatic watches in your daily life- do you have an established protocol of when/how often you re-sync your watches to keep you moving forward?

Thanks in advance.

Trump Floats Shipping America’s Serial Criminals to ‘Foreign Land’ for ‘Very Small Fee’

A poster came up with a great idea. Ship them to an isolated island, where they can kill each other! Have cameras setup everywhere for pay per view.



“We also have many violent criminals in our country, however, that did not necessarily come here illegally, but have been arrested 30 times, 35 times, 41,42 times, in a couple of cases,” Trump said.

He then highlighted heinous crimes, ranging from murder in general to criminals pushing passengers in front of subways to baseball bat assaults to violent home invasions of elderly folks.

“I don’t want these violent repeat offenders in our country any more than I want illegal aliens from other countries who misbehave,” Trump said.

“And I say, and this is subject to getting it approved, but if they’ve been arrested many, many times–they’re repeat offenders by many numbers–I want them out of our country,” he added. “I also will be seeking permission to do so.”

Trump then said America would pay “a very small fee” to a “foreign land” that housed the worst of criminals:



choosing the right 7mm variant this time around

I had a custom 7prc built back in early 23 after it was released due to the fact at the "time" I didn't know how to reload, and I wanted to hit the easy button. Transition to Present day I'm completed set up to reload proficiently. A buddy of mine reached out wanting to purchase my 7prc so without hesitation I ordered another 7mm barrel. However, I'm not sure on which direction to go. The sole purpose of said rifle will be to hunt with mainly sitting in a deer stand but with the full intentions on it being a Colorado gun or a taking down nilgai if need be. I am stacked up on 175 elite hunters cci br2, and g15ms, what variant would you choose? I'm not one to chase velocity however a 3000-fps gun is what I was hoping for, and I've been looking at the following variants:
7ss and or max
7x300 norma
28 Nosler
thanks in advance for any positive feedback

Firefight ongoing in Texas...

Fronton, Texas... right now.

Firefight going after shots fired at ICE.

The Cartels have supposedly put out a bounty on ICE agents... said they should be shot on sight.

So it's game on right now.

No ICE agents hurt yet (as of 24 minutes into the fight.)

We need Bill Jordan back... his ghost needs to rain lead on the fucking Cartels.

Sirhr

Modern "ART"

People actually gathered for... and then applauded... this so called... "performance".

Ladies and gentlemen!!!
(I can say that because our president has confirmed there are only 2 genders)

I give you... "modern art".

I should be so full of hope after this last election, but all I can think of is this old meme.

DNT is gonna let us do a reticle

Last week at SHOT I met with the folks at DNT Optics. Looking at the products, they are gonna do a SH Package to pair several models like the 7-35x, 5-25x and a 3-18x. With that pairing I suggested a reticle for the members. I was thinking we can do one like the old IOR build where we all throw an idea into the pot and boil down a winner.

So with that said, what elements in a reticle would we like to see,

1. Floating Dot

2. XMAS Tree

3. .2 vs .25

4. What above the center crosshairs

So let's discuss ....

DO NOT LOSE YOUR CARD!

Uggggghhh! What a nightmare! My debit card must have fallen out of my pocket when I was "hittin' the head" in a public facility. Instinct #1 kicked in and I got the card blocked. Thankfully, no "nefarious" activity prior to blocking.

That said, there were two transactions that were "on hold" pending resolution. One involves a rental car I'm returning later this morning. They have a $300.00 deposit "on hold." Hopefully, they can release the hold and it will drop. But I have to find another way to pay them because the card can't be used anymore and I don't get the replacement until Thrs 01/30. The charge they made covered both the rental amount and the deposit. Hopefully, if they release the hold, I can either let them debit my checking account directly or I can write them a check. I'll do either one. Or, they're nice enough to wait until Thrs. Nah, not happening. And now I have to change all the "automatic debits" active on the debit card and hope that none of them bounce before I can on Thrs.

Moral of the Story: DON'T LOSE YOUR CARD! Be sure you look around after you "complete the paperwork" when in a public facility!
