Tinnitus, Vertigo, Hearing loss -- GET it checked out!!

Have had on & off tinnitus , vertigo , hearing loss & fullness in right ear for several years - was told years ago it was likely Meniere's disease & there was no cure.. It started to get more frequent bout a year ago and toward end of last summer it was daily.. The vertigo got to the point around first of this year that I spend periods of time weekly that I am completely useless.. The tinnitus is now constant and is SCREAMING ..
My first Dr visit about this was in January they sent me for cat scan... In February was diagnosed with cholesteatoma ( a non cancerous growth ) invading my ear & mastoid bone air cells behind my ear..
After a huge mess of trying to find a specialist & then a mess trying to get a referral I am FINALLY meeting a surgeon next week..
Been told surgery is the only option, I will likely be deaf in that ear after ... but hey one ear is better than non.. I will be fine ! GOD is Great !!!

If You have these symptoms --- GET IT CHECKED OUT!!!! these things continue to grow & can eventually cause a brain abscess !!!

SOLD Custom 6 Creed AR build

*RIFLE HAS BEEN TRADED*
I am looking to sell or possibly trade this AR-10 I built as a lightweight, predator hunting setup. It is at a 75 round count, and has only seen Hornady’s varmint express 6 Creedmoor 87gr V-max ammo. This rifle is in perfect condition and runs great. It easily shoots 3/4 to 1/2 moa with factory ammo. I hardly ever use this rifle at all and is spending too much time in the safe. Below is a complete list of components used:

-SLR Rifleworks upper/lower receiver set
-Midwest Industries handguard (M-lok)
-BSF Barrels carbon fiber 18” 1:7.5 twist
-BSF flash hider
-Superlative Arms adj. gas block
-Wilson Combat enhanced BCG
-CMC match grade trigger (2.5 lb)
-Radian ambi charging handle
-Radian ambi safety
-Magpul UBR gen 2 stock
-Magpul K2+ pistol grip
-Magpul 10rd pmag
-Optic is a Nightforce SHV 3-10x42 MOAR in an American Defense Manufacturing Ti QD mount. I have the box for both of these items, and they are in mint condition as well.

Rifle as shown sits under 8 lbs and handles extremely well for a large frame AR. I will ship the rifle to the FFL of your choice in a hard rifle case. I would really like to sell this rifle, but am open to trades. I would be interested in a well made small frame AR, as well as bolt guns. Just pm me with what you got. Asking price is $2750 shipped, thanks!

Gulf Coast Trip Recommendations

Wife wants to take the boys to see the ocean around the mid-July timeframe. It'll be a cold day n hell before I go back to the left coast, and given the drive it looks like the best option is the gulf. Yeah I know it technically isn't the "ocean" but close enough.

Where would be a decent place to go? I'm looking at Corpus Christi as it's far enough from the border it should minimize having to worry about the wets, but also far enough from Houston I don't need to worry about the crime there.

Are there any other family-friendly options I could look at? I'm coming down from Colorado.

Firearms Stiller Mk13 Action (Garland, TX marked) - Brand New

Just got this in a couple months ago - had intended to have a Mk13 built around this, but unexpected finances have forced me to change course.

This was one of the last 50 actions to leave Stiller with the "Garland, TX" marking (they're marked "Shiner, TX" now).

Clear then burry reticle

So this evening while doing some dry fire practice in the back yard I started to notice a weird thing happening with a scope I’ve been running on my PRS22 rig this season and need a little input. So I get behind the glass, get on target and the reticle is crisp but the longer I look at the target the reticle starts to go out of focus but target stays super crisp. Now I quickly close my eye and reopen it then reticle is sharp again, but will begin to go back out of focus, now is this a diopter issue or should I look somewhere else like maybe my eyes are tired or I need my contacts in rather then my glasses.

Now I’ve never consciously noticed this before but then again I don’t typically stare through my scope looking at targets on the clock and for I’ll I know I’ve just been compensating for it unknowingly.

Do I keep a gun in my "Get Home" bag?

Hello to all. While I'm not new to shooting I'm new to the site and welcome all comments on this topic. At 65, I've been around the block a few times and not much surprises me anymore. Last week, my wife and I returned to our home in Utah from teaching a class on emergency preparedness in a nearby community. It was late and we parked the SUV outside by the side deck, which is well lighted so we could unload the 72 hr Bug out Bags, the range bag and other paraphernalia we used to teach the class. I brought everything in the house except my wife's get-home bag, which is normally kept in the back of her rig. I did not realize that we had stowed her Springfield XDM and 3 mags full of ammo into her bag. Normally, that would have been in the range bag, but in our haste to clean up the gear after the class, it was placed in her pack.
The next morning at 0600, I went out to start the day and found the doors open to her rig and all the gear was gone. I keep detailed records, photos and serial number logs of all tools and firearms, so the police had everything they needed to verify it was ours if it showed up.
Here's the question... "Should you keep a weapon in your "Get Home" bag and leave it in your vehicle, whether it's locked in the trunk or the back storage area?"
I am just sick, it makes me nauseous to think our gun could be used in the commission of a crime against someone else.
FACTORS and OPTIONS...
1. The XD is my wife's choice for a durable get home battle gun. It is not her EDC. Does she need to take it to the rig everyday when she leaves to teach? She's not allowed to have it on her person at the school.
2. Do you end up leaving the bag locked in a closet by the back door and grabbing it every day when you leave the house, because you can't be assured your rig won't get broken into during the night?
3. Does this open up the possibility that because you were "Just running into town" and left the bag locked in the closet by the door, that moment will be the time when the SHTF and you're without your bag and gear.
We live in a rather rural area of northern Utah and this type of theft is becoming more and more common place. Makes me sick.
I'm anxious to hear opinions from this group. My personal wish is that I could keep my AR carbine behind the seat in my truck, my bag locked in the back with a spare .45 in it and my EDC on my belt. But I just don't think it's safe to do that anymore.

Scope Gurus: why don't scope makers have levels on their reticles?

Attention Scope Gurus and Optics Companies: Why don't all the best scope makers simply have accurate plumb/ level indicators on their reticles? For example a level indicator viewable with the reticle, like Sig Sauer has on some of their top scopes... It seems like a no brainer...

It's kind of silly to have to clock an external level to a reticle- but necessary of course.

And, has anyone ever seen an out of plumb reticle from NF, Zeiss, TT, ZCO, SB, Kahles, March, Hensoldt?

Perhaps some of you have seen the manufacturing processes and a stage where reticle clocking/alignment is verified...?
