makes a conspiracy much more likely if true. appears obvious that he was a deliberate distraction. just have to question the kiddie porn. likely seems true. but,we know that the FBI can and will do such to totally bury a suspect. ie esp if the case is light. i just wonder if a case of obstruction is solid enough or if a kill shot was needed. like OJ? trying to frame a guilty man?

We just set a record!

Bin Laden was our creation as far back as AFG. don't know if it is true but i read him Quoted as saying that he would not have planned 9/11 if we weren't totally supporting Israel. don't remember the source.
why do we need to be "the world's leading country"? that is nothing but a sop for the egos of self impressed jackasses. sort of a respect my authority (or power) for a country instead of for cops. the world has changed since 1945 and ruling it with bombs and bullshit about spreading democracy doesn't seem to doing us much good here. of course,military interference in other countries is very profitable for some. if we don't have the money we can always print more.
our war mongering neocons and people who cheer them on remind me of jr high bullies that push their size around because they can.
agree that the Houthis attacking commerce in the Red Sea should be stopped. we tried it,ran out of air defense missiles and retreated when it didn't work.
it helps that the American sheeple are asleep. we can bomb away and if only a few coffins come back here nobody notices. if all we had done in VN was rolling thunder and no ground combat units the protest movement never would have started. could have gotten away with some base security or just used Thailand and not many would have noticed.
yea,3rd world sucks. stay out of it and don't let them come here-problem solved. of course gotta get involved to be able to grab the resources and make mucho corp profits.

SVD rifle

Ridiculous -- especially for a public range.

I've fired the SVD and FPK and find them both capable rifles to at least 500 Meters. They balance and carry nicely for real-world military field application.

One of my Special Forces ODAs did a precision shooting training trip to India. At the end-of-course final fires our Indian Army soldiers outshot National Security Group policemen shooting HK PSG-1s.

People are more important than hardware.

Someone murdered Charlie Kirk

I haven’t been thinking about any of this in partisan terms, but if the Democrat party wasn’t already doomed headed into 2026, they’re especially screwed now. The amount of reasonable people who still were planning on voting Democrat, after witnessing lunatics and demons around them celebrating Charlie’s murder, want nothing to do with it now.

The deranged leftist base is happy and will go into the mid-terms full court press, but their numbers will be far less and Dem candidates are wetting their fingers daily seeing how the winds are blowing.

All House Dems and the ones in the Senate ramping up for 2026 basically have to reevaluate their ground game, messaging, and campaign strategies to navigate a new set of waters, where the headwinds are not in their favor.

I guarantee there are a lot of democrat voters who don't give a fuck about charlie and plenty of middle of the road twats who will just vote however the TV tells them to but it'll be interesting when we get closer to voting time. They're bound to try and switch things up and act all christian or pro gun or whatever they think it takes to win because they're all lizard people anyways.

That convo between the shooter and the trans was contrived. Premeditated and deliberate to shield the trans from suspicion/guilt. People don’t talk to each other like that, cool, calm, rational after something like this. They discussed what they were going to “discuss” in advance. The trans 100% IMO was an accomplice in the planning and execution of this.

Absolutely.

I showed the transcript to my girlfriend, who's first language isn't even English. And she was like... uhhhh people don't text like that. Sounds totally scripted.

Robert Redford dead at 89

The best baseball movie!!!
A very close 2nd for me personally for baseball movies, The Sandlot. It came out in '93, and I was REALLY into baseball in the '89-'92 time frame, so it really brought back a lot of nostalgia. Baseball somewhere in the neighborhood all summer long, every single day. There was one house, that all the kids were scared of, and all sorts of rumors abound like they killed dogs, kids that went down their driveway never to be seen again, all sorts of rediculousness, lol. There was always a couple houses that had dogs that we were terrified of, and the woman who jogged while carrying a bat. We'd see her, crack a window, and sing the batman theme song....except "batwoman", lol. I wish it was possible to have that level of imagination again, to be able to pretend again and the imagination for it to be great. Sit in a parked car and pretend it's a space ship, cops and robbers, whatever the game was, a fort in the trees, or on the ground, was as good as a midevil castle, and always.....no girls allowed. lmao.

I hope that my daughters one day will have nostalgia for a era long gone. Talk about the 20-teens fondly, call it the best era of their existence, much like I fondly think about the 80's and 90's.

30-06 still relevant?

I load the berger 200.20x in Lapua 30-06 brass with a 28” barrel. My barrel has a really long throat which lets me load them long. The reamer used was a “Serengeti rev. D”. I use a case full of H4831sc and get a comfortable speed of around 2720ish fps. I have ran it up to about 2800fps but started getting some ejector marks and sticky bolt lift. I will have to look back at my load data before i post it because i don’t want to be way off base.

Found one of my last chrono’s of it…. 59.0gr of H4831sc. Easily shoots 1/2 moa but when im dialed in it shoots around 1/4 moa.

Suppressors Lipsey's Rugged Obsidian45 or Lipsey's Gemtech Lunar-45 Suppressor

My answer is if you have a rifle that needs one, settle that first. Having said that, the Obsidians are nice, never an issue, easy to take apart and clean, etc. If for some reason you need a 3 lug-do not get the Rugged one, go KAW Valley.
Thank you. My other suppressors are for rifle, although the .22 suppressor works well on a couple .22 pistols. The Obsidians seem to be quite popular; I probably will buy one.
