At some point the AT-XC owners will realize that they just got a gen 4 AT-X, along with all of the promised support the previous generations of the AT-X got too. However, the didn't have to source a few of the niceties that most of us gen 1-3 guys had to hunt for. However it cost them ~$600 more for AI to do it.

Everywhere else you bundle and save. AI you bundle and spread cheeks.

No lies detected. But, as always, we can remain dubiously hopeful lol.

Having spent my career building complex software, many many times the answer is obvious after having spent many many many hours/days/months doing it the wrong way. But getting to that obvious answer required detailed knowledge of the system and a lot of work. I had a saying, simple is not easy, it is very very hard. But it is obvious once it is found.

Innovation to me is like that. Understanding the system in depth and being able to apply the right answer to the problem. Not bandaids, but understanding root cause and fixing the real problems. Sometimes that is just the obvious answer once found.

There is also a "usability" component to the solution: if it's too hard to use, what effect does that have on marketability / market uptake?

I have met... too many... Vudoo buyers who loudly proclaimed the rifle was Garbage because it wouldn't feed. Damn near every time, the complainer was pushing the follower button all the way down and dumping in rounds, with the expected result of rim lock and misfeeds. This is not to discount real issues associated with some R700 stocks/chassis that simply would not hold magazines in the REQUIRED position; my original MPA chassis was one of those - and Phil Cashin fixed it, as Mike has described.

So, one of Mike's challenges is to "innovate" a feeding solution that's innovative/accurate/precise AND as idiot-proof as possible, while still being marketable. The reality is, while the R700 footprint may not be the optimal accuracy/precision solution, it has damn sure sold a crap ton of Vudoos, Rim-Xs, and Bergaras.

Just can't bring myself to spend a lot on a 22 scope.

I'm sure some of yall have tried all 3 of these, which of the 3 is top?

I may upgrade later if I'm sadly disappointed in my choices, but right now I got too many irons in the fire to justify 1000 dollar scope for something to set on the back porch and shoot targets and turtles.

Or if anyone has a used strike eagle for sale

I’m a sniper.
He’s a sniper.
Wouldn’t you like to be a sniper too?

Two more weeks! Arrests are coming ... SOON !

We are doomed, not because of bad leaders or social decay, but rather because we park on a driveway and drive on a parkway, and because we can’t even spell “phonetically” phonetically.

I felt I had someone call me just now to ask a question to record my answer and not actually listen to what I said real time.

It really would make Oppenheimer's quote of the Bhagavad Gita somewhat prophetic and ironic.

I have posted a few pics of a rifle on an RRS tripod and a camera on another one beside it. It always gets some amusing reactions.

People are very cliquish about their scopes.

As shooters we are pretty lucky to have so many great options these days.

Pam Bondi being associated with Pfizer has been out for a week or two. If that's the bombshell he waited too long.

I would like to try the shouldered barrel, having in thicker from the action, and doing it a bit stiffer.
Or is it any stiffer than the barrel nut type of barrel?
But if use a burrel nut type of Remington barrel, i think what i have looked, you are not able to get it as thick as shouldered barrel.
I am having a Strasser RS 700 in this month, and it has a factory (Lothar Walther barrel) and i can say that these do shoot very well.
I did tested the new Lapua MaxRange Target 144gr pills last week, and it does shoot 0.22 MOA and 0.2 MOA with 4 shot´s, but the fifth
it did not hold on the same group, might be a shooter that did the pull, dont know, but what i look the the rifle, i would say that
it might do better with a shouldered barrel.
Will see when i get my rifle and Carbon X stock in to it.

The funny thing is the libtard photographers often freak out on the birding/camera forums when they figure out that their beloved RRS is being used by evil hunters/snipers/sportsmen

This depends on the watch, but your app level is Pro so their is nothing to upgrade. Some Tactix 8s are Ultralite, and some are Elite. If this one is the Elite SKU PART NUMBER010-03407-10 then use the in app support function so we can see the logs and what the watch itself is reporting as.

Click to expand...

The Devices tab shows it as Elite. I'll put in an in app support ticket.
