See attached photo. I have this FLIR, it has a 640 core however the display is really small and hard for me to see so I rarely use it. I have finally rigged up a little battery powered monitor and an analog to digital converter so I can run the thermal image on the display. Id like to set the entire thing up on a small ball head tripod and maybe mount the monitor / battery / converter onto one of the legs, or maybe get one of those articulating arms?

Both the FLIR and the monitor have tripod holes in the bottom. The converter requires a small amount of power, it can either be powered by drawing from the monitor's USB out, or I have discovered I can use a little battery / power hub to power it.

Would really like to be able to keep most of the stuff attached to the tripod so I can just grab the whole rig and strap it to my backpack.

Hey guys,
As stated WTB a set of Leupold Ultra 30mm medium rings for an old GWOT sniper build. Thank you!

Redding 6mm Creedmoor dies.

Redding 6mm Creedmoor competition bullet seating die - $100 to your door



Redding 6mm Creedmoor bushing full length resizing die - $75 to your door

Looking to try a chassis and have it narrowed down to these 2. I have felt both at comps but haven’t had much time with them or shot with them. Both felt comfortable. I preferred the thumb shelf on the Xlr over the thin ridge of the ACC.

Is there any feedback people can provide between these 2?

I’m currently running KRG bravos and they have served me well but want to try something new with more adjustments.

Midwest quad rail. Installed, might have seen one range trip, sold the gun it was on.

Two 5.56 mags. Don't remember who makes them, maybe AK Unity? I took a little off the top of one to see if I could make it work in my Saiga and realized it wasn't going to work so I stopped. Shouldn't affect function. Plastic stock came from a Saiga sporter that now has an Enfield No. 4 stock

$80 shipped which is way less than the rail alone is worth, I just want it gone.

Recently, I was offered an additional "tutoring" gig (I already have an active one). It seems like it's a pretty nice gig. I get to tutor K-9 students in Math (Arithmetic and basic Algebra) and English/Language Arts (ELA). It pays $20.00/hr and I'm able to bill roughly 12-15+ hours or work per week. The pay is weekly. The sessions are all "on-line" via Zoom, so I can do it remotely. The kids log in at their respective schools, and I log in from my desk at home. That's all the "good news."

The bad news is, the "curricula" (pre-designed by the school districts and the company brokering between the districts and the companies supplying the tutors - like mine) are all based on the original "common core" standard of education. All the lessons are planned and spec'ed out, and adherence to those specs (by the tutors) is "mandatory" per contractual agreements between the school districts, the broker company and and the tutor supplier companies (like mine). There are Powerpoint presentations (slide decks) for each lesson/session. And, trust me when I tell you, if you value your childrens' education at all, they'll make you want to hurl.... just as they make me want to hurl, having to teach to them. They are totally pejorative to the students. They "dumb down" the concepts being taught to the absolute "lowest common denominator" of student, regardless of how inteligent the students actually are. And, not only do they insult my inteligence as a tutor, they insult the inteligence of the students themselves. It's like they're saying, "Well, we think you are all so stupid that we have to teach you at this very basic level." And, it also seems to facilitate an "indoctrination" into an underlying socalist agenda (i.e. be dependent on the govt).

I always believe in tutoring my students precisely to their specific levels and tailoring my lessons accordingly. I don't believe in teaching to a dumb downed slide deck. I believe in having conversations with my kids, retaining their attentiont that way (a slide deck won't do that) and resolving issues dynamically as they arise. I believe in having conversations with the students... getting to know what they're thinking, and adjusting my teaching to that. I also like to think my students are a lot more intelligent than perceived (by both the School district and others). And I teach to that level. Where needed I suppliment with remedial teaching to get them back up to speed. And I do it in a way that's not "condescending," not "pejorative." If the ratings I get as a tutor from the students themselves are any indication, I'm doing pretty well.

But now, I fact a dilema. My company is beginning to enforce compliance with the broker company and the districts to teach via the slide decks. In other words, to teach "common core." It's not that I can't do it. I surely can. It's just that it makes me sick, having to do it. And I now have a decision to make as to whether ot not to continue with this gig and teach common core per their standards, or resign the gig and try to find something else. I really don't want to resign. The gig pays pretty well. And I can surely use the $$$. And the HR Genralist at my company that hired me has been wonderfully nice in all of this (this is a W-2 position, BTW not an Independent Contractor). But I think she is just as bound by the contract requirements as I am. She tells me they're looking for new districts to add, but I don't think they're looking all that hard, because I think both the districts and (especially) the broker company actually like common core and support it. I don't see them marketing to school districts in states/areas that don't support common coare (the South, etc.). I know my home state of Florida dumped Common Core in favor of their own std. Narry a district like that on the broker company's radar.


So, what say you? What is your position on the "common core" standard? And, if you dislike it, is it worth the loss in $$$ to resign if they require that you teach it, or would you still want to earn the $$$ and teach it anyway? LIkewise, would you let your child be taught in that standard or would you seek to home school your child? I know I'd home school, if I had children. And, shoud I ever hit the Zillion $ lottery, my focus will be a foundation that facilitates the home schooling of children that want that choice and the freedom of independent teaching and thought. Not some govt. standard.

What say you?

Barrel is a 20” 1 in 10 twist, has 50 rounds on it up to now. Did a quick break in. Sharing this because I couldn’t find anything on it.
Only running factory loads at the time to break in and collect brass. It seemed to favor the 36 gr prairie enemy a little more breaking it in but they are nonexistent right now so I loaded up on Hornady’s 40gr vmax ammo. The 10 shot group was the other day, no cold bore warm up or anything just laid down 10 shots in a row. Mirage got terrible last 2 shots.

Lightly used chassis, shot from a bench the few times I used it. Comes with a full length arca rail and the other grip shipped in the box but no 5 round mag. Asking $550 shipped conus PayPal F&F only.

My impacts are slick as snot. I don't want to mess that up... I see images of Impacts cerakoted only on the outside of the receiver, and some inside and bolt body as well.

Any feedback on this? Does 100% cerakote inside and out gum up the action? I'd like to it to be all one color, but if feedback is negative I'll just do the bolt handle and outside of the action.

I have actions that run slick with cerakote on the bolt and inside of the action, so I could see it working fine.

Thanks for any input.

I want to build up a M24 SWS clone. I know that Remington sells the complete rifles, but like many of you I love to hunt for parts and build stuff up. Can someone familiar with this rig post detailed information and pictures for an exact M24 replica? Stock, Actions, Markings, Mounts, Rings, Scopes, Bottom Metal, Sight Bases etc. Thanks.

T3X / Proof combo from SJA , mdt chassis, 10 and 12 round mags, i have over 100 rounds of 90 grain handloads. I have ran this gun the last 1.5 years coyote hunting and taken hundred of yotes pigs and bobcats. I’d have to count brass, between 4/500 rounds down the pipe. I’m on my 6th load batch of 100 so i feel more confident towards the 500 mark. Gun shoots 1/2 moa all day with me behind it , and have taken several coyotes at 300+ yards. Will entertain trades for a nice 22 arc AR , or 6 Arc ar, or other chassis bolt guns. I can add cash, or other guns that i don’t have listed.

Gun is a straight killer, I’ve taken deer at 3–500 yards off tripod this year several times, it’s light , maneuverable. Weighs a whopping 6.7 pounds.

1 pound trigger tech trigger, 24 inch bsf barrel, carbon stock dipped, is has a arca rail and QD sling attachments but i will take arca rail off if not wanted. It’s got a sight mark latitude 6.25-25x56. Decent optic, i will sell it separate if there is interest.

I have over 100 rounds of 153.5 Berger hybrids loaded for the gun. They leave a pencil tip sized entry wound, and a good half dollar size exit, they have been phenomenal. I also have new brass, and dies. Gun shoots .5 moa all day.

Trade value 3500$ cash price 2800$ shipped for everything! In an Apache hard case

Trades would be any chassis bolt guns that catch my attention. Prefer magnum cartridges , or a creedmoor setup. No 308.

I have a new never mounted accupoint 4-16x50. SFP 30mm tube MRAD adjustments with green tritium asking 800 shipped

I have a like new Eotech Vudu 1-8
Comes with ADM/Vortex one piece mount
Asking 750 shipped

Long shot but looking for a shouldered prefit. CF or SS. Can be for Origin, TL3, or Solus.

Prefer not to go the Savage Small Shank barrel nut route.

Thanks for looking.

title. 200 pieces same lot. $270 shipped. 6.5 creed, alpha OCD, large primer. brand new with boxes and cardboard.

I’ve read a ton of threads covering my title, however — I’m looking for a basic tripod that’ll get to 72 inches (I’m a little over 6 feet tall) and some type of basic mount that would be best to use with some inexpensive binoculars. I’m just going to use the tripod and binos for spotting targets at distances inside of 400 yards and will not shoot off of the tripod ever.


Thanks
