Reduced quality 22LR ammo - most match brands

There is a sliver of truth to the claim

In general ammo is getting better but Rimfire ammo is very specific as in match grade ammo is not being made per see but rather selected out of the bulk .

Your Center-x ,Midas+ , X-Act are all same product just separated after manufacturing QC and lot testing into respective grades for example only 4% make it into X-act box

As rimfire ammo manufacturing at either Eley or Lapua has yet to dramatically increase while at the same time product portfolio of premium ammo grew substantially , we are dealing with more selection from same bulk product and production line. So you could say in some ways more product is being packaged as premium then it was years back. Hope things smooth out once new production capacity comes online.

As this is quite a standard process sometimes it falls into business optimisation for example when Managment at Eley made a MBO of the company in 2014 you could note a substantial drop in quality for couple of years, because stuff that would normaly end up in black box ended up in Red and pink box ended up in black etc. At present there is again a noted drop quality but for this time different reasons.

CZ Firearms is helping the Canadian Liberal Party confiscate firearms from legal owners

Colt Canada is just contracted scraper ,has nothing to do with government policies .

In Canada government buy back is being conducted trough firearms dealers ,so you could claim they all are in on it. While Colt US&Canada might be a bunch of cocksuckers that managed to run their business into the ground once the music stopped on their guns for bribes business model to US military . Just remember price of M4 to US military halved once FN got the job and Colt went bust not long after. CZ are furthest you could get from gun grabing commies. So this flack is quite undeserved.

Government is buying these firearms from businesses and these are buying them from general public. Colt-CZ is only the final destination where these end up in smelter since goverment discovered these so called assault firearms are of no interest to Ukraine as they are unsuitable

Canada has dropped plans to supply banned guns collected in its national buyback program to Ukraine after officials in Kyiv showed little interest, and most of the firearms turned out to be unsuitable for combat.



End of the day any country that still bows to the British Royal family is going to take your guns away, will jail you for wrong speak and will also be the first ones to get you into a digital gulag.


UKstan = europes first Islamic Kalifate
*Times (4 April 2025)reveal that UK police make over 30 arrests per day for ‘offensive’ online communications under vague laws criminalising messages that cause ‘annoyance’, ‘inconvenience’ or ‘anxiety’. Over 12 000 such arrests occurred in 2023 alone, with civil liberties groups warning of a chilling effect on free speech. Most cases do not result in conviction, yet individuals are subjected to police detention and reputational damage merely for expressing controversial views online.

*few guns Ukraine will be taking i would bet money on will end up as rifles for some Ukrainians officials private collection not as service weapons ,as you can be certain there are some gems among the confiscated guns.

And the Toronto police at least have demonstrated that they're not afraid to just kill a gun owner that they're raiding. Roger Kotanko was a well respected gunsmith, who was shot in his shop within seconds of the first officer entering with a search warrant. They could have easily arrested him outside of his home workshop, where he wouldn't have been potentially working on a customer firearm, but they waited until he was in the shop with a customer, and handling a pistol. Many people think that was a deliberate move to justify killing him.

It seemed like a very deliberate murder to me too.

Low light hunting scope FFP?

The first and last 10 minutes of legal light, especially with overcast sky are my challenge. FFP because I need that for daylight. Some type of illumination, I prefer a dot or small cross. The reticle can be pretty simple. The critical part is me being able to almost see in the dark. No night hunting here so the real good stuff doesn’t count. Budget, well if $3K+ kicks ass, that’s where I need to go.

Practical Powder Measurement System for Analog Scales - No Zero Drift!

@J Willey - Nice looking design that seems to work very well!!'

There have been a few guys over years that posted videos or pictures with somewhat similar setups using cameras and monitors to view the needle on the balance beam scales. As you stated, they are PITA to read unless at eye level!!

Dandy Tricklers had a product that mounted over the beam and worked with a light beam being broken as the balance beam reached level. I owned one for a few years, but never really used it as I bought digital lab balances and the other, more common Dandy trickler, then and Auto trickler and fx120i and kicked myself for not buying it years ago… SO much better & faster!!!!!

Best of luck to you!!!
