    I'd take it if I didn't live in California. Sigh.

    Spuhr ???

    As others have said, the Spuhr mounts are really good in this area. For the most consistent mounting, Spuhr recommends a light coat of oil on the rail:

    Gunsmithing Glock slide cut for Vortex Razor

    Amerigun USA is solid. Everything Chris has done for me has been top quality. They specialize in Trijicon night sights and RMRs, but they do mounts for all the other popular red-dot sights, too.

    Range Report Done with Hornady tipped bullets....?

    Yeah, I get that. I think I just didn't make my point clearly enough. Dude asked, "What's the difference between 'group size' and 'consistent POI'? Those both sound like the same thing to me." I answered by comparing how you'd pick the best group size and how you'd pick the most consistent...

    I've read the first couple pages; so far it seems to match my understanding of the process. Thanks.

    Range Report Done with Hornady tipped bullets....?

    I don't handload, but I've done work in a completely different field that involves processes similar to what I think @padom is recommending. Padom, correct me if I'm wrong. 1. Choose a min and max charge weight, divide the spread into say ten steps, load five rounds with each weight. Get ten...

    Class Action Against Google

    Yeah, everyone in California knows all the movie stars and everyone in Silicon Valley works for Google. Just the other day I was telling Julia Roberts how they hired me to protect their reputation by posting my opinion of their logo designs in the Bear Pit.

    Class Action Against Google

    Oh, ok. Thanks for explaining. I guess the simple grey just seems quiet and respectful to me. Personally, I think it's more meaningful than if they'd done something with more ornamentation, since they ornament the logo so frequently for other, less-serious occasions. But that's just my...

    Sorry, I don't get it. To me, the one looks appropriately somber and the other looks appropriately colorful. What am I missing?

    Tikka T3 Thread

    I don't think that's true. I bought a TRG-22 mag to compare to my TAC-A1 mags (and then sold it at a loss: https://www.snipershide.com/shooting/threads/sako-trg-22-22a1-magazine-new-120.6936025), because I suspected that the TRG must be better in some way. But it isn't. I miked all the...
