MOA vs MRAD - am I making too much of this?

My project may be odd to this forum, but whatever... I'm trying to push the boundaries of a scout rifle. I've been hunting and training with this platform for over 20 years and I understand where it shines. Fast shots, at shorter distances (inside 300 yards) is the wheelhouse for this. But y'all have finally convinced me that I've limited myself too much. The gun is capable of more. I set out on a systematic effort to find an optic that would open up the possibility of longer shots while retaining most of the handiness that is so appealing to me.

The criteria is this: no more than 3x on the low end and preferably 2.5X. Top end around 10X. SFP because much of my hunting happens at dusk and I value speed onto target. 20 ounces or less. Must have at least 26 mils of internal adjustment because my rifle doesn't have the option of a canted base. The Steyr Scout has Weaver slots for scope mounting built into the aluminum receiver. Easily adjustable turrets - not capped.

There are surprisingly few scopes that meet all of this but I settled on the Nightforce NXS 2.5-10X42.

My problem is the reticle. I have a store credit at Optics Planet because they sold me a Leupold Mark 3 that was advertised with 36 mils of internal adjustment when it really only has 18. Since I had mounted it, they would only do credit for the return. Fine, but they don't have the MRAD version of the Nightforce in stock and the backorder is 2-5 months. I've only ever used MOA and I'm not looking for a specialized long range optic but I did want to take a class or two with it and figured MRAD would be advantageous. I know MOA will work but I feel like the language of the long range community is nearly universally MRAD. I don't want to limit my training because I have an MOA scope.

Am I making too much of the MRAD issue? Does it matter? Related to this, is there a scope I'm not considering? I considered the Swampfox 1-10 but I just don't trust the long term robustness of it and the reviews seem mixed.

SOLD Rem 700 AAC-SD- 308 win Barreled Action - $485 Shipped

308
20” Barrel
AAC Brake
Bolt fluted from LRI
Bolt knob from LRI
EGW 20 MOA base (cut)

I’m the second owner. I’ve shot about 2 boxes of 150 SST Fiocchi through it. Shoots that at about 1-1.5 moa. Mounted in a XLR evolution as a lightweight hunting rifle. Scope base cut in front to accommodate the XLR chassis

Does have some very minor surface rust in spots. Only cosmetic no pitting. Typical rust you’d see on the newer 870’s etc

Trigger had screws that backed out. When I got the rifle the trigger was over 9lbs. Those screws were adjusted then lightly jb welded to keep in place. Trigger breaks clean just under 3 lbs

$485 shipped from my ffl to yours

Exploring Alternative to Pay Pal

I have an alternative that might work with my system, it's Credit Card so it will come with added fees and because it is VISA & MC their Anti Gun Stance is still present so anyone complaining after that will be auto-banned.

We have a processor that appears to be 2A friendlier so I am reaching out and actually detailing all the bullshit you guys post on here to make sure they are good with it, because believe it or not, that is an issue. The Pay Pal stuff is for "misinformation" that is you saying something they don't like, that is an open door.

I am waiting to hear back and then will get the ball rolling

Voting Early?

Just curious. I see one of the better Republican strategists complain on TV that Republicans, in general, wait until Election day to vote in person, whereas the democrats take full advantage of "early voting" and "mail in voting." He warns that waiting until election day might have consequences... (i.e. you're sick and can't get to the polls, or there's a household emergency or something going on with the kids and you can't go). Furthermore, if everyone descends on the polling place on election day, there could be other problems and everyone who shows up might not get to vote, etc. OTOH, on the "pro" side of waiting for election day, you get to see all the "interactions" between the candidates before voting (i.e. late debates, etc.). Some people who voted one way might have "voter's remorse" after seeing a certain debate performance. Furthermore, and a very remote if not unlikely scenario, one might think that if we don't publicize, in advance, the actual number of republican voters via "early voting" it might be more difficult for the dem machine to know in advance, how many "phantom" votes would be needed to throw the election to their candidates. Unlikely, as stated, because I'm sure the dem operatives would know registration figures in advance and would know how many are needed.

I tend to try and vote on election day at the polling place. I vote in the morning after commuter rush hour when the polling place should be less crowded. I have voted early on occasion and I voted by mail only once (in a primary). I much prefer to vote in person on election day.

Thoughts? Are the republicans "shooting themselves in the foot" by not spreading out the vote over the early period and ensuring that all republicans that intend to vote get the chance? Or, is it better to wait until election day?

Precision Rifle Gear 2022 Hearing Protection - Which Ones???

Looking to upgrade to a better set. I don't need comms, but I will buy if there are other benefits associated with comm sets. I shoot outside, and I shoot suppressed most of the time, but I'm subjected to brakes here and there. What are the options in 2022/2023 that I should be looking at?

Ops Core AMP. With NFMI?
Peltor Comtac V or VI?
Mepablu (if I can find any in stock that ship to the US). Which model?
Sordin Supreme.....Mil Aux SFA?

What are your thoughts and where's the best place to buy?

Please pray for my wife

We’re in the hospital now and she’s not doing well. Not getting into details, but I know how powerful prayer is. Please pray for my wife.

Thank you all for the prayers. Docs are still struggling trying to find what’s wrong.

On another note, If you have an order that you placed recently, it likely won’t go out until next week. I appreciate your patience.

Arthroscopic knee surgery.

I saw a surgeon yesterday about repairing a couple tears in my left knee. One of them is a fairly big tear. He called it "impressive " whatever that means. He's going to try to stitch the big tear down if possible. If not he'll just cut off the flaps.
I've never had any kind of surgery before. I'm just curious what I'm in for as far as recovery, and as for outcome, has it been worth it if you've had it done?

Brand new to suppressors...

Hey fellas, I recently purchased a DD M4A1 and would like to purchase a suppressor for this. I'm prior military police but we never got into the suppressor world, so I'm a complete newb. Besides noise reduction what am I looking for in a high quality suppressor? The two initial one's I'm looking at are the DD Soundguard or the SureFire SOCOM556-RC2. Thanks for any help you guys can provide.

Anyone else ever do business with Vortex's service department?

I've had a Strike Eagle mounted by 2 different gunsmiths and one of these gunsmiths mounted it twice. On my 300WM it wouldn't hold zero for even one shot, and the gunsmith agreed. So I put it on a 6.5CM and she started holding zero finally, but then she loses her zero periodically throughout the year. While she's zeroed, she is a tack driver, the most accurate gun I own. But then she loses zero again down the road. Anyway, the service department at Vortex has a guy named Travis Jones, who will not ever say there is anything wrong with this scope AT ALL. It has started to feel like extreme gaslighting.

So I'm curious, is there no such thing as a scope that has zero holding issues? Or is it always operator error? Because that's what our conversation has boiled down to after I confirmed that all 3 of us followed his instructions/tips for mounting and zeroing. Keep in mind, she wouldn't hold zero for even one shot on a 300WM, but will hold zero for an undetermined length of time/number of shots on a 6.5CM.
