We were on the range back in the late 80s, I was a smalls arms coach in the Canadian Infantry. We were using FALs (C1a1) back then and converting to the C7 (M16). We had both rifles on the range that day. There was this asshat Captain that was explaining how great the new rifle was and how the C1a1s sucked... So I said prove it. He went up and taped a quarter to the bullseye at 100 meters. He then went on to fire a full mag and miss the quarter. I grabbed my C1 and fired one shot and hit the quarter. Since most C1s were minute of barn accurate, it wasmoreluck than skill. The look on his face was priceless, not only was his new super rifle beaten, but a lowly corporal beat him. I still have that quarter somewhere.

My mind is blown that on a $3650 they don't give you twist rate of the barrel. It's got to be at least 8T I'd hope. Also guessing the free bore & neck clearance is on the loose side you know for "duty". Those 80 VT's must be jumping a mile and apparently aren't happy about it.

The 80 VT's state 8T min, but 2750 isn't all that fast.

I'll be trying some hand loaded 80 VT's in a 22" 7T here shortly. The 62's shot great in a 7T Valkyrie.

Some dogs deserve more outrage than some humans. For example, if you died in a locked police vehicle I would say BFD, it was just a bootlicker.

Give Scopelist a call and ask for their best price. They have the Kilo6HDX 8x42 in stock and you might get it for under $700.

hello, I was shooting with my good SWFA scope (that was zeroed @600 yds as the label says) but I was getting enough elevation so I tried another scope I had laying around.
but now I'm having problems with clearance.
Any suggestions!

I can just hear the conversation in the back rook of the Knesset. Levi "Oh shit, we blew up an American ship." Slomoe "No problem, we've got those Goy convinced God gave us this land and they need to bow to us as special."

You might want to read the rules and delete this post then put it in the appropriate forum.

I have to strongly disagree with you!

The physical complexities that it takes to rough in plumbing in a custom residential house cannot be matched by, any machine or robot not now and not in the next 20+years. Don’t even get me started on what it takes to do an old renovation.

If we ever go to a vacuum drain system like on cruise ships that might be different as long as we’re talking about gravity drains where pipes have to have a minimum 1/8” slope I can’t see robots crawling under houses with drills being able to do it anytime in the near future. They are either going to have to drastically change the way we build houses currently or come up with some very very sophisticated robots. I cannot see it happening in the next 20 plus years.

Modular and mobile homes maybe, stick built homes….It ain’t happening anytime soon.

agree,in that i know nothing about construction. about medicine i do have 40+ yr hands on.
the comment that doc in the box/primary care is in danger is for sure. AI could do most of that since personal directed care is long gone. like i said
the protocols i have seen used could work for some,not all. the individual patient would need more than a basic understanding of A&P to be able to make their own decisions. tough to do just like knowing about plumbing to decide what is right to do. the stuff i did was a mix of new things and repeats of things nurses did 100s of years ago. AI/comps can't do those things and robots won't for way> 50 years. critical care has become a #s game and addressing those is where it's at. i hear that control of interventions has become restricted by comp monitoring according to pre set rules. so the role of informed personnel has been subsumed. even 15 years ago i saw the focus of care change from the patient to the computer and computer records. same in DR's office. interpretation of imaging is another place AI pushers will try and grab. modern nurses and docs are indeed setting themselves up for replacement at levels that don't still mandate hands on work. we shall see.

So, who's side am I suppose to be on?

I'd say let Germany stick its dick out and then watch as it gets cut off.
If they provoke an attack on Russia fuck them they are on their own. The Russians will defend their selves & I do not blame them one bit.

If you/we were in Russia's place would you/us set there an take it,..I think not.
