What’s your favorite scope mount?

I’ve heard great things about 419 and shot the Guardian with some of their crew—super nice people and good shooters.
I have their hunt rings on my nrl light gun, have the regular rings and one piece mounts on precision bolt guns and just got the cantilever for an AR. Absolutely beautiful machine work and the pins are a nice touch. Used a bunch of high end mounts and rings and these are definitely my favorite

Had some YouTube documentaries playing today and just happened to notice the number of 'vaccine' shot ads were on... Fly shot, Pnumococcal pneumonia for seniors, HPV virus for teens, more that I can't remember. How many shots are kids/adults having pushed on them by doctors and pharmaceutical marketers? How many people are getting some 'new' shot every time they turn around?

And who has tested these shots, especially when taken together? Does anyone have any CLUE about what kind of chemical or, worse, immune system soup they are creating?

Autism? IMHO, just a drop in the bucket of chronic illness, early death, alzheimers, cancers... and a ton of other shit. Oh and all that shit... makes the medical community hundreds of billions every year.

Follow the money.

What would be a slight step up from .

how do we ban someone??? What the fuck are you talking about with these suggestions? I would normally let Athlon slide, but these others are just senseless, no-name companies.
If the mods banned people for dumb comments, you would be first in line with this banger. Wow... lol

Yea, let's ban the guy who knows more about optics and has tested more than anyone else? Are you serious? You are NOT new.

While I might not know those brands either, and am way too much of a snob with poor eyesight to mess with budget scopes at this stage of my life, ILya does, and knows what he's talking about.


He tests high end too, but for those starting out he is probably the best resource on the web, period.

Who are you again?

The fast twist project was always about more than just barrels. The 12 and slower do well with current ammo, but only marginally better than the standard 16 at distance. To run faster than a 12 with current ammo, there are a number of considerations to accessing the benefits, but the shooter has to know what to look for. When the accommodations are made while running a nine twist, nothing hangs with the downrange results.

Really curious what those accommodations are. Of course, custom ammo is a very big step to take, if that is what is necessary.

Seems a touch slow, is the barrel fully broken in?

31 to 31.2 grains Varget usually gets me about 2830-2850 with a 26" barrel.

Agree, that was my same question.

I broke in a 26" Krieger last weekend;
Lapua 2x fired brass
Varget
105gr Hybrid
CCI450

these were shots 101 - 150:

31.3gr: SD 6.1; 2873
31.4: 2.9; 2874
31.5: 7.7; 2884
31.6: 5.6; 2894
31.7: 6.7; 2901
31.8: 7.3; 2907
31.9: 4.6; 2911
32.0: 4.1; 2921
32.1: 6.9; 2930
32.2: 6.6; 2949

And those results are typical; I don't think there's anything fast or slow about this barrel. Last month I broke in a Bartlien with the same components except the same Lapua brass had only been fireformed and hadn't had a full power load through it it yet. That barrel had the same speeds less 15 - 20 FPS slower.

I don't start charge weight testing until I've run 100 medium-pressure rounds through a barrel to get it up to speed.
