Rifle Scopes Best PRS comp scope under 2000$?

Hi all just recently pulled a trigger on a 6 CM masterpiece arms awaiting for it to be built. I’ve been looking at glass and I am torn somewhat. I am not exactly sure what I should be looking for PRS matches my guess was the Nightforce nx8 2.5-20 FFP, but I’m open to other optics If anyone has experience or recommend me a better option. My budget would be around 2000$.

Thanks in advance

Suppressor adapters on precision rifles

For context, this is for precision bolt rifles.
I was talking to a gunsmith about the installation of SF Warcomp that will be used as a mount for SF suppressor. He recommended against using rocksett because the crown gets dirt and needs cleaning, especially when firing suppressed.
He used some blue loctite and tightened it up. Is this a typical guideline? Do people check the tightness of the muzzle device before attaching a supressor. Any other thoughts?
For reference, the smith is also a competitive PRS shooter.

Religion

Two observations:
1) Most people (not necessarily here) stay the religion that they were born into. They never seriously consider it.
2) A lot of people seriously dislike people not of their religion based only on belief not behavior (Christian, Catholic, Evangelical, Jewish--I'll leave out Muslims only to avoid a distraction from the concept).
Any thoughts?

Rule #5 on Sniper's Hide rules:
Religious posts of any kind are frowned upon. This site is not for the discussion of one's faith as we feel that is a private matter best left off the forum. Attacking a member due to their political, religious, or sexual orientation will be grounds for removal without a warning.

The EXACT reason why common leftists want guns banned.

Not talking about the elite leftist policymakers and legislators, whose support for gun restrictions are SOLELY to enact total control over a vulnerable population and create a new class of serfs who won't be able to effectively resist future attempts to subjugate and harm them.

Why does the rank and file commoners, including celebrities and media figures who identify with leftist policies, support gun restrictions and even outright bans? It is because many, if not most of them lack mature adult emotional regulation and coping skills when dealing with everyday stresses such as rejection, insults, and arguments. They outright admit that if they HAD access to a gun or another weapon in the course of a work related argument or disciplinary action, they WILL use that weapon to harm and kill those around them, indiscriminately. They KNOW that they cannot control their impulses, and lack the emotional maturity that enables the rest of us to handle life's common issues like functional members of society, so they want an omnipotent nanny state to do it for them.

Disgraced former CNN primetime anchor Chris Cuomo, a leftist gun control supporter and brother of also disgraced New York State governor Andrew Cuomo, openly admitted to having thought about "shooting and killing everyone at CNN" when he was fired from the media giant two years ago for defending his governor brother's notorious sexual misconduct:



Life is not all sunny days and pleasant skies. Every second, every day, we are being tested. Arguments, relationship conflicts, job and workplace difficulties, financial woes, etc. Some have it rougher than others but everybody faces them at one point or another. Millions upon millions of mature and functional people pull through, look for results, use problem solving skills to resolve the issue and establish solutions agreeable with everyone, and continue to build and proceed onwards. NEVER do they ever think that using a weapon for no reason to inflict harm, and mass harm and terror is an acceptable fucking reaction. NEVER. Not for those who identify themselves as leftists and "progressives" though. They cannot control their violent impulses and cannot function in life and tackle everyday issues like millions of other functional adults, so they want to take away EVERYBODY ELSES' freedoms and means of self-sustenance.

Maggie’s Saw my first UAP!!!

I have never seen or believed the whole "i saw a ufo" thing...at least until today. I was taking the kids outside at 6:30am to load them in the truck for the ride to school. One of my twin girls (5 years old) said" look daddy an airplane". I just blew it off and said "thats great". Then she hits me with this "I didnt know airplanes can fly backwards". That got my attention I looked up. There was a bright dot moving across the sky from NE to SE however there were no flashing marker lights which seemed odd. Then the damned thing freakimg STOPPED and then backed up a rather significant distance before.moving forward again. I ran back into the house an grabbed my vortex binoculars, once I found it I noticed there were actually 3 objects flying in a triangular pattern, the two smaller objects were more faint and not visible by the naked eye. I tried zooming but all I could see were the bright lights. It was truly bizarre. North Central WV btw The cell pic I took just shows a bright dot 🙄

Michigan. Next in line...

I remember speaking a few years ago to an FFL in MI that doubted any major change in gun laws in their state. 🤷🏾‍♂️

Well, as usual, don't let a tragedy go to waste.

I'll say it again: gun owners are lazy (absent) voters.

I've talked to nearly 20+ people at a local range event about upcoming legislation (anti 2A) in our state, NOT ONE of them knew what I was talking about. One didn't even know about laws that were pass nearly 1+ years ago at the 11th hour and proceeds to tell me they haven't voted in over 7 years. WTF.

Easiest cartridges to load for

Going to be selling my unfired Tikka 300 wsm barreled action soon. I feel like it's too much gun for what I'm doing. Kind of an impulse build.

This would be for a bolt gun.

Wondering what cartridge one would choose to load for? Looking for easiest load development. Possible. Would use the cartridge to hunt whitetail, black bear and possibly bore. Also, just plinking and shooting for groups from the bench. Max shots would be 500 yards. Majority would be between 1-400 yards. I currently hunt with a 6.5 grendel. Shot a deer last year at 300 yards and killed it, but penetration was not good at all. Also, have a 6br, but it's heavy as hell.

Any recommendations?
