Best hex and torx bits?

I’m sick of buying shitty torx bits from Home Depot that don’t fit well in screw heads and either twist out of shape or strip out screws.

Looks like Wera gets great reviews on Amazon, but I thought I’d check and see if someone has found a bit set that holds up and fits well in screw heads before I order the relatively expensive Wera set.

Thanks in advance for any input.

Best rimfire PRS scope

So I've been using a Athlon Cronus BTR gen2 but I'm looking to try something else.
I love the reticle and reticle line thickness of the cronus, I would go for a gen3 razor the fine reticle line thickness was the only thing keeping me from pulling the trigger on it.
Any other suggestions... must be FFP, have a good simple tree reticle, big F.O.V. "my biggest complaint on the cronus is the F.O.V."

I've thrown around the idea of the Burris XTR PRO or a Zeiss LRP S3 or maybe even S5 but what else is out there???

Calling the carnivores among us

I've been chatting with my uncle over Christmas, who has been on a carnivore diet since February, with good results (lost a decent chunk of weight, lot less issues with inflammation etc.)

I have played with the idea of giving it a try myself, and so have looked a bit round the web, with mixed results. Lot of "no this is terrible because muh-veggies" but also a fair amount of actual useful info.

So, who here has given it a try, and what were/are your experiences?

Short action hunting caliber ?

I have a bighorn orgin sa that I am going to get another barrel for… it’s sitting in a manners pro hunter, I have been trying to figure out what to pick, I hunt deer for the most part and the furthest shot in my area is 600 yds but I shoot steel further, 1200 sometimes. I would like to be able to take elk out to 500 ish but I would also like to be able to find decent factory ammo, let me hear what you recommend!

Am I being an idiot here?

I’m looking at a couple different chassis options. All based on the Rem 700.

Came across a couple I thought were neat - there’s this Akila brand I found that seems pretty sweet and then found a much cheaper option. The Sharps Bros Heatseeker which goes for only $430.

I’m building on a coup de grace action which I know is optimized for AW mags, but wasn’t sure if that chassis would take AW.

So I asked, I wrote them a quick email asking if the chassis would take AW mags and the owner of the company wrote me back and all he said was “AW?”…. Is it wrong of me to assume that he ought to have know what I meant?

I gave him an explanation I found online that differs the two mags out and all he told me was that his chassis is meant to work on AICS magazines… duh… but I don’t think I want to go with that chassis anymore since I was only given a one word response.

AW (meaning arctic warfare) is the same dimension and the mag catch is in the same spot as an AICS mag?

Cheers and merry Christmas.

Cajun boys, have a seat. I’ve got questions

I stumbled across some Frenchy’s Creole Rice Dressing.

Being an uneducated, Yankee from North of the Mason Dixon line, I’ve got questions.

This company also makes Boudin, which I really like.

The ingredients of the Boudin and the Dressing are the same.

Can I cook the dressing, put it on a Saltine and eat with tobasco the same way?

Or should I do something different?
