No.
I don't think he would.

I also don't think he would be off the chain mowing down anybody that isn't wearing a MAGA hat.

Of course any of us including myself that think we could speak for him would be fools to make such assumptions.

Because they wouldn’t be much of an adversary? Said everyone ever in a long drawn out civil war. I remember when we were going to invade the ME and quickly overwhelm some sheep herders too

You aren't as intelligent as i gave you credit for. I am disapointed.

What I don’t understand is the reason they reduced it beyond what has already been produced by other optics manufacturers. If it would have at least matched the image presented by my ZP5’s or T6Xi I would have kept it.

Suppressed or not, that sound was not a muzzle report. It was a sonic crack. The shooter was far away. The shooter aimed for the head and hit the neck. Bullets drop at long distances. This is a rifle forum afterall.

Several people I know commented that it sounded like a pistol. I immediately thought suppressed rifle. Maybe I need to watch the footage a little closer, but all I heard was a crack when it passed the camera.

Shooting styles have changed, smaller targets and longer stage times means you can (and need to) take your time on shots.

The IPRF 22 championship in August was much faster than most people were used, meaning a tree reticle came in handy.
If things carry on in that direction then a tree reticle will basically become a requirement again.

Back when I was shooting a lot of PRS comps, stage designs almost necessitated the use of tree reticles. It was certainly an advantage, which is why they were so popular.

Doesn't seem to be the case anymore.

I have scopes with trees and without. Both work. I don't really have a strong preference for either, but I'm also not really shooting any comps these days.

I’ve also seen people killed and injured as well as seeing the limbs draw up with injuries. One arm drawing up would be more of a fencing response.

Feast your eyes on both arms drawing up

I think Jane should invest in some asbestos underwear for the trip

Almost seems silly to get one of these right now with the neutered FOV when we know a better FOV version will be available soon

Be careful.

One mistake easily made is painting with too broad a brush.

Where do you draw the line with the Left?
There is no clear delineation.
I know a few left of center people that I have large differences of opinion with but they are reasonable in that they despise and denounce the stupid shit extreme people on their side of center are cheering on.

If we are not wise enough to exercise discretion with any effort, we have no moral ground to stand and win upon.

The second mistake easily made is under-estimating your potential opponent.

Are some of them mentally deficient? Yep. So are a ton of idiots that are right wing/conservative.
It is possible to be very intelligent AND evil.
Going in with a cocky and arrogant attitude is a mortal sin that you may or may not survive.

I'm not saying you are right or wrong. I am encouraging everyone to avoid making decisions and opinions based on emotion.

Rage, hate and passion are just a few things that can be manipulated to our undoing if we are not guarded.
That is an important statement when we stop and realize that every avenue of information is being tweaked to manipulate those very emotions.

Be careful.

What would Charlie say? Forgive.

A bit beyond me at the moment.

So why is our side not doxxing these people and taking care of business at this point.

Doc

Probably because we operate with rational thought, process and level headedness, maybe we need to take the gloves off and go tit for tat

We also know, the Pit is a fine example, 1 boy is a boy, 2 boys are 1/2 a boy and 3 boys is no boy at all.

They cheer this when in groups of their peers, but wouldn't act like this in public on their own out of fear.

God Speed and God bless his family, he'll be missed and hard to replace

Why are we not filling the streets......we all know what this means. But yet none will openly admit it.

Doc

First off, your grammar sucks.
I'm sending you a box of Question Marks along with other punctuation and a How To video.

Secondly, that is the stupidest shit somebody could say right now.
You know, like it's almost scripted. . . . . .

Filling the streets and doing what exactly?
You calling for everybody to mindlessly pile on is exactly the kind of bullshit I don't want to worry with if things get tough.

An emotional knee jerk reaction is what they are trying to cultivate and here is your dumb ass willing to oblige them.

If you were a medic you should be aware of a little thing called “Decorticate Posturing” sure looks like it even though it’s not the textbook injury to cause it.

i've seen a bunch of decorticate and decerebrate posturing in the ER and ICU it doesn't happen immediately after a hit like this. it takes time to develope on the way to brain death. times vary. as i recall the vid,his Rt arm moved up. never heard of posturing being unilateral and only involving the upper extremities. possible i guess,but....what hankpac said is the likely explanation. doesn't matter,he was dead when he hit the ground and posturing doesn't happen when the whole system has been shut down which is likely from what looks like a carotid hit.
he didn't suffer which means very little except to family maybe. his way of working was a bit unique. FTF respectful take downs of idiots and their ideas. his loss will be felt.
what is your knowledge,education or experience with acute or emergent neurosurgical injury and care? my bet it is doesn't come close to experience in the A Shau in '68. again,doesn't matter the guy was murdered for his beliefs.

And you sound like someone that is talking tough stuff but we all know you aren't going to anything but sit on your computer? What does that make you exactly? A politician?

How about I am just not afraid of the world like some of y'all. Whatever game someone is playing, they are winning with how paranoid and afraid you and a few others here sound.

Reagan said it best when he said (paraphrasing) “is nothing worth dying for? And if not, when did that change?”

We are absolutely not there yet. Especially considering that the sane people are in power. But even if not, we are not there yet.

But we ARE closer than we were yesterday, and anyone who denies that lies to themselves. Plan accordingly.

You sound like a pussy. Pretending to not be a pussy but we all know you are.

So who is more of a pussy:
A - The person advocating for calm because an American civil war based on general beliefs is pants on head retarded.
B - The person saying there is a war and talking about killing commies, but is actually going to sit on their computer instead of taking any action. <- Hint, this is the pussy because they are all bark and no bite. It also happens to be you in this thread.

People shaming Kirk's killing for spouting his beliefs now want to kill others for their beliefs? lol Once again, some game maker is having fun at America's expense right now. People need to take a step back, breathe, and realize this path is unsustainable. We need less violence, not more.

When you have to share bunk space with Far Right whacks while trying to concentrate on your group's survival, they won't be anecdotal. They will be just as much of a threat to you as the Left.

@BytorJr , I am glad you took that for the joke it was, I wouldn't wish a swamp cooler on anyone, but in the early 70s, it was heaven

Everyone's perception of where the "center" is will be different.
Sometimes very different.

I absolutely guarantee you that there are a metric shit ton that are extreme right of center that could be classed as mentally ill by most shallow definitions that are being tossed about.

I sincerely hope that a hot war never breaks out within our borders. However if that ever happens, I can assure you that are are capable people that will not allow extremes on either side to pass.

The enemy of your enemies is not necessarily your friend.

Far Right whacks are anecdotal. The Left is stacking bodies .

I am not sure if question can be answered so I’ll try to ask it the best I can

First I understand all rifles and ammo lots perform differently.

My question putting different lots aside for the moment.

In a given rifle does Lapua ammo performance consistency get better groups as the type goes from:
center-x
super long range
Midas+
x-act

Or asked another way

Do all lots of x-act out perform all lots of Midas+ Do all lots of Midas+ out perform all lots of center-x?

I am not a big competitor just a local club guy.

No. And especially at long range. Center X, many lots, shot better out last 100 than about 4 or 5 lots of Midas or XAct. You really need to try your ammo in your rifle.

Guns&WhiteWater · Sep 10, 2025

No, it did not have scope caps.

Once the FOV is unlocked I will probably get one, if the price drops to reasonable levels. I loved everything else about it.
