    Which Heavy Duty Truck?

    I have a 23 F250 with the HO 6.7 and have a question assuming you probably know.. What's better, to delete the CP4 sooner or wait until it fails then go to a dcr/cp3? I only have low 8000 miles on the truck and in May of 26 the warranty is up.

    The new Athlon Ares BTR G3 2.5-15x50, initials, and ongoing thoughts.

    Darn! I wonder what the deal is??

    The new Athlon Ares BTR G3 2.5-15x50, initials, and ongoing thoughts.

    Yes I did but briefly because I traded the 5-40 off shortly after I got the 5-42. The short of it, "ha, pun intended", the 5-42 had better IQ under around 22x, and the 5-40 had better IQ above 37x. My 5-42 was a early one and got dimmer and blurrier by 37x or so and was quite bad at 42x = to my...

    The new Athlon Ares BTR G3 2.5-15x50, initials, and ongoing thoughts.

    It's a bigger scope but I bet the ETR G2 4.5-30 would be a good one and on the other side is the Helos G2 6-24 and the IQ is decent in my 6-24. I have a Vector Optics Continental 5-30x56 to compare and the IQ is superior in the HG2 6-24 plus most everything else except for weight. The HG2 4-20...

    Stock Market

    Latest report; XRP went down for a week or so but it went up from the $1.96 when I bought it to a high of $2.24 this morning. It's been a very robust Crypto during this recent fall in the stock market. I wouldn't be surprised if it was up to $2.35 in a week.

    Interesting… and raises ethical questions!!

    I'm not worried about much because most of it is out of my control anyway. Thanks be to the only Most High God/YHWH and the price His Son paid that when I go on I know where I'm going and where I'll be, forever!!! That doesn't mean that I won't try to prepare, resist evil where I can, try to...

    Interesting… and raises ethical questions!!

    Revelation 6:8, the rider of the pale horse is named Death, and Hades (the grave) follows him, with both being given power over a fourth of the earth to kill with sword, famine, plague, "and wild beasts" Makes me wonder on that last part of the scripture because = Oh lets play God - unintended...

    Interesting… and raises ethical questions!!

    I wonder if the gene editing would cause a kind of giantism somewhat like a Liger has. I guess we'll find out in a year or so. I'd rather mankind not play God but on the other hand a 500 pound dog would be cool to see.

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Getting into wheel-guns: S&W 986 or 627 PC / V Comp?

    929 here too. I found out .355 bullets don't shoot near as well as .356 bullets. We have a steel Ram at 136Y and the .355's wouldn't stay on the steel whereas the .356 will. Yep it's best to keep 9mm brass for my gun separated from the brass for my semi's otherwise you run the risk a hang up...

    Stock Market

    I pulled profit of $5500 on Bitcoin four years ago after 8 months of a $20,000 investment which got me started. Then bought metals which have increased, one quite a lot lately. A friend told me in November to buy XRP crypto when it was .58 cents and I thought no I'm not sure I want to go the...

    The new Athlon Ares BTR G3 2.5-15x50, initials, and ongoing thoughts.

    I'm gonna have to let you guys judge for yourselves. I've mentioned this before but the IQ in my G1 2.5-15 wasn't bad at all. Unit to unit variance between yours and mine??? The IQ in my G1 and G2 4.5-27 wasn't bad but the prescription didn't work for my eyes, like if I had the diopter set for...

    Rock River Arms 17 HMR

    My Savage A17 is kinda funky as far as the trigger and stock, but a magazine will pop out of the gun once in a while too, though it shoots decently. Instead I sure would like that RRA with a match trigger and the ability to have adjustable LOP and Cheek Height instead. Are these pretty...

    Wilson Combat barrels

    I have a WC in 6mmFatRat and it shoots good, like 3/4" at 100Y, but not as good as the Bartlein I had in 6mmART40 on another upper. I'm not sure which way I'll go when my FR burns out but the FR was half the price and I'm not unhappy with it.

    So. Many. New. Calibers.

    Not a lot has changed, though I learned over the years I prefer temp insensitive powders, long barrel life, low recoil, higher BC, and great precision, and strong well made brass - or the best compromises of. I tried all kinds of cartridges for varmints and I sold all except for 223 in AR and...

    Looking for recommendations for long range air rifle

    It's fun to do, and to say or show, it can be done. Well there's some marketing strategy going on here too in Matt's case but that's his job which I can't hold against him. I love shooting pcps and slugs at longer distances. Some of mine are very good at ELR distances, good enough to be much...

    Is the March FX 4.5-28x52 my new ZCO?

    I'm going to come at it from some other angles, not that you aren't correct for much of it, however I'm not sure I agree totally. I venture to think there is still plenty of profit margin in expensive scopes from smaller co's but they aren't selling near as many scopes as the high volume co's...

    Point of diminishing returns for a 2-12 ish scope

    Alright, alright, you got me. I didn't know your level of experience so go for it and let us know what you think as time passes with your new scope.
