308 DMR optics

I got a big heavy rock river lar-8 308. I think I'll do a DMR style setup to shoot longer ranges with my buddy. I'm thinking of what to do with the scope on this thing. I like the idea of a 5-25 but they get pretty darn heavy. It's already a tank of a gun so maybe who cares? I also like a 4-20. Pretty close in power but about 12 oz lighter. Both prob also need an offset Red dot so more weight but lots of capability. A 3-18 is lighter still and wouldn't need a red dot but l feel like I'd be wanting more magnification at some point. Not sure but a 3-18 seems maybe a better choice for a 556 vs a 308.

What do you guys think?

What am I doing wrong?

Gathering data on my 18" AR. 223 wylde, Leupold 3.5-10, Frontier 75gr. ammunition.

Everything's great at 100, 200, 300, and 400. Even turned in a 2.5 inch 3 shot group at 400.

However, at 500, the wheels fall off. The group opens up to 7 or 8 inches and is offset about 1.5moa to the right. i should ad that I'm not dialing, simply holding for elevation and windage using the reticle (dots or hashes every 2 moa - lepould ts 32 moa or something like that is the name of the reticle.)

While the ammunition is top tier, pretty sure that's not it.
Not dialing on the scope so tracking shouldn't be it.
Scope's mounted in a LaRue mount, properly torqued.
Adjusted parallax at each distance.
Didn't feel like fundamentals were off.

It has to be me, otherwise I feel like I'd see a decline in performance before "falling apart" between 400 and 500. Please give me a list of things to check tomorrow.

Thanks in Advance, and God bless America.

First precision 22 - go big or go home?

Just found out there are some local 22 matches near me. I’ve always wanted to get in on them, but nothing was close. So until now I have held off purchasing a precision style 22. For those that recently have started, I’m curious if you regret the investment of going straight to a vudoo/rimx or if something like a b14r BA or a CZ457 would serve me well to get off the ground and see if I like it? Just interested in picking brains.

Russian collusion?

a question just occurred to me in a moment of karmic enlightenment. back during the Russian collusion by Trump FBI game,why did the progs and most of the deep state care. they had been happily colluding with the Russians from 20s to 80s. was a lapse of critical thinking for me. i know it was all pretend but the libs were just all crying about betraying the country which they had been doing > 50 years. same applies to most of their heroes. odd.

How the new Trump Presidency is running at the speed of light

Here’s the whole story of how this DOGE thing happened. Trump told Elon “how can I accomplish my goals in 2 years – seems impossible.” to which Elon responded “hold my beer.”

This was months and months in the planning and it worked. SHOCK and AWE at the speed of light.

And to top that off, Vance is the one running it while President Trump does his Presidential stuff unencumbered. Vance is seeing the data coming from the way money runs through the government in REAL TIME on his computer at the White House!

The article below is a must read. It tells the story in great detail:

Accessories Grayboe Ridgeback R700 SA w/Bottom metal and arca

Selling a new, unused, Grayboe Ridgeback stock with R700 SA inlet. It’s in their Bergara web finish. Includes Grayboe M5 bottom metal and a new, still packaged, Sawtooth rifles full length arca rail.

I bought this to put together an NRL hunter rig, but decided to just go with a Seekins PH3. The stock has never had a receiver mounted in it. There is a small chip in the finish in the inside of the barrel channel, which was there when I unboxed it. I suspect you wouldn't be able to see once a barreled action is mounted in it.
