    What is a good FFP 30mm option?

    I got my Vortex PST Gen II 5-25 for the exact reason and price considerations you are. It ain't a Razor but it's pretty decent scope for the money you want to spend.

    WARNING on Freedom Munitions .308Win 168gr A-Max

    I've had that happen with a couple thousand rounds of Black Hills that was surplus from an Army AMU contract a number of years ago. Wicked accurate but the brass was shit.

    Not gonna buff out

    Dumped my bike on very slightly wet pavement at an intersection back in 1975. Slow speed left turn but nearly got run over anyways. As a State Trooper unfortunately saw my share of bike vs. guard rail. It's never pretty and the guard rail wins every single time. Glad you're alive to tell your...

    barrel cooling device ?

    I made one but it died after just a couple months. Loud as hell but even in hot weather cooled the barrel in just a few minutes. Total cost a bit over $20.

    Emotional roller coaster: 6 powder droppers in < 3 years!

    It isn't really. I don't use the big bulky powders which is why I said many powders. Remove the hopper and place behind the rear window. Tip the V4 over the hopper and open the window. Give it a shake to empty the tubes and you are good to go. No need at all to disconnect the wire.

    Emotional roller coaster: 6 powder droppers in < 3 years!

    There is no need to disconnect the wires, just like there is no need for shims/tips or other such nonsense... But that's just my opinion from using my V4 since 2022. .02 is generally one kernel of many powders and .04 is generally about 2, maybe 3 kernels. Well within my tolerance. A world more...

    I got into a major knock down-drag out fight in US History class 1970 after getting nailed by one of those. Desks were flying everywhere.....
