Trump is back…the “Now What” thread

Snuby642
Nothing personal but the buisiness " reality" is what got us to this point.

Pure greed, and fuck everyone additudes of all buisiness in general and the sheep that can't tell the difference. Yes I had a successful buisiness till I hurt the feelings of some big players and they fucked me over . Also shits. They couldn't beat me at the game so they bought out the players.

The additude of never investing in the future to maximize current gains will kill this country like a slow nuclear war that some of us apparently have allready thrown the towel in the ring on.

No God damned use getting sweaty or bludgeoned up just take a dive and get paid.

Corporate shits.

Trump is back…the “Now What” thread

So I suppose we just sit here and take it? No

Let's get this strait, bad policies in the past mostly by Democrats got us in this shitty position and the plan is to wait around till they come back in power to reinforce stupidity?

You're kidding right?

Not kidding at all. Its basic risk management for any business. Why invest in something when there is a real risk of it being nullified down the road? Have you ever run a business? Everything is risk v reward. Either you run it out of your pocket or the shareholders' pockets, both of which require profit on investments. In order to move the businesses here permanently you are looking at either permanent tariffs or government subsidies to those companies. I have serious doubts about these tariffs being permanent and I for sure wouldn't go all in on expansion until the dust settles.

I'm not against the tariffs, I never said that. But there are things businesses must consider before they invest in America. Basically, there is no trust that the politicians won't turn their backs on both the American business and the American workers the first chance they get. This is one of his main points in the article. Why? Because they are beholden to their donors and for those donors it is still too expensive to produce here at the same price point it can be gotten overseas, and at a minimum if the tariffs go away the profits of these companies are better if they go international where the production cost are lower, so you can bet your ass they will be pushing for that, and soon. Case in point: Walmart and Target have already met with Trump over this issue. Until that changes and you get lobbyists out of the politicians offices nothing is going to change in any permanent fashion. This is the reality of business.

Putting a 100-gram weight on the scale and seeing "100" is not calibrating it. See pages 30-31 of the manual for the external-weight calibration procedure.

I'm not saying calibration should/would have any effect on drifting - it probably shouldn't - but to me it's a reasonable step to take.

You're right about just putting the weight on the scale and I guess I should have been more clear how I was using the check weight. Because that calibration procedure is so simple, that's what I do verily often for the reason I stated. :giggle:

Maybe that's one of the things that keeps mine from drifting. 🤷‍♂️ ;)

The new Athlon Ares BTR G3 2.5-15x50, initials, and ongoing thoughts.

I'd still like more mag that the Ares btr g3 offers in the 4.5-27 but the glass really is good in that Helos 4-20. I could spot well out to 1k.

It's a bigger scope but I bet the ETR G2 4.5-30 would be a good one and on the other side is the Helos G2 6-24 and the IQ is decent in my 6-24. I have a Vector Optics Continental 5-30x56 to compare and the IQ is superior in the HG2 6-24 plus most everything else except for weight.

The HG2 4-20 is decent too and I have it on a rifle that I don't want a heavy scope on. This HG2 replaced a SWFA 3-15 and I like the HG2 much more!

This is where I've defaulted, the HG2 line as far as bang for the buck.
I've tried various other scopes of other companies the last few years that are similarly priced, some even more expensive, and only the Meopta Optika 6 has better IQ, yet still doesn't have turrets as nice as the HG2's.

But that Ares BTR G3 2.5-15 has pretty much changed my mind about scopes lately. It's just too good and a lot can be done on 15x. I don't have a many rifles and some of them I don't shoot often enough to justify better scopes on so I'm at a stand still right now.

Basically I'll stay with the HG2's for the immediate future as "good enough".

I often use a 100 gram check weight before starting my powder charging session, just to be sure calibration is where it should be that I'm getting the same measurement from one session to the next. But that doesn't seem to have any relation to the issue of drifting during a session. . . ???
