Elr Bipod arca vs pictanny

I have always ran picatinny rails for my bipod for 100% prone elr shooting. Seems like everything has moved to arca so much on stocks and chassis that not many options for the picatinny. I've been thinking about switching. I see there is the Rlok from RRS and then the arca from area 419 with the grooves that lock in. Is there any concers with arca for elr? Which system is better area 419 or RRS?

I use a accutac wb5 bipod and they have an adopter to switch to area 419 adopter I'm not 100% sure the RRS adopter will work with it.

Optics NIB Leupold Mark 4 6-24x52, PR2/MIL

NIB Leupold Mark 4 6-24x52 PR2/MIL (#183823)

First PM with “I’ll take it” gets them.

$1150 shipped…PP/FF, Venmo and Zelle.

The ONLY trade I’m interested in would be bulk (at least 3K same lot) Berger 105 Hybrid 500ct boxes. Based on the amount you’re offering, we can negotiate from there. I can add cash if we’re talking a large amount.

What is a Budget Optic

What is a budget optic. NO youtube videos. IN your words. What is a budget OPTIC. Price ranges, features, glass quality, Brand name, warranty.

Does it look like this or is it different?
0-500 / budget?
501-1000 / mid?
1001- plus / high end?

I know what I spend on optics. I just want to hear your thoughts.

how much do you spend on your optic?

M1917 vs M1903

I've always wondered why the '03 seems to have been so much more popular for use as a match rifle than the 1917(during their heyday: 1910's - 1950's or thereabouts when the Garands and M14's completely took over High Power - Service Rifle, and Model 70's/40X's/etc completely took over High Power - Match Rifle, 3x600, prone, long range prone, etc)?

Is the '03 simply a more inherently accurate rifle(IMO a valid question, because the '03 receiver was WIDELY used in the Mann Device for ammo accuracy testing and whatnot for like 100+ years)? Or was it a case of the '03 simply having sights more conducive to competition/precision in general/etc? Or...??

There were FAR more 1917's produced vs '03s during WW1(along with commercial variants eg: Remington Model 30 & Winchester Model 51 Imperial). And they consequently played a far bigger role in the US war effort than the '03 did, in the 1st world war...esp. if you count the P14.

I ain't aware of any commercial '03 variants(aside from the M1922 and the DCM Sporter if ya wanna count them?)?

TL;dr/summary: why no 1917 National Match Rifles? Why so few custom 1917 target rifles?
(Yes I'm aware of Comfort's winning the '35 Wimbledon Cup w/ a custom .300 H&H 1917 {{and @sirhrmechanic 's amazingly beautiful clone/recreation of said rifle, or was that you, @buffalowinter ?}}.

Regardless - my point/question still stands; the '03 dominated the Nat'l Matches up until the Garand NM and Don McCoy's match conditioned Garands were born.. and the 1917 was perceptively very rarely used in comparison. Why is that?

Thanks in advance gentlemen.
God bless & best regards!
