    Optics Zeiss Spring Sale

    I did not realize the 3-12 does not have side focus, which is something I want. I suppose they leave it off for the same reason Leupold does with their VX5HD 2-10. I know, I’m obsessing over 4 oz of weight. What I’m seeing as options are the following: 1). Leupold VX Freedom 4-12x40 CDS...

    Tim Walz thinks he’s a baddass

    Talk is cheap, put your money where your mouth is tampon boy. I wonder what his doctor has him taking? That’s some dysfunctional and delusional cocktail of meds.

    Optics Zeiss Spring Sale

    Thanks for the info! Those are all too heavy for my application. I’m looking to stay in the 1# range. The V4 3-12 does that, but doesn’t have a reticle I can range with. I have three lightweight first gen Conquests with the Rapid Z800 reticle that have MOA ticks in the top I can use with a...

    Delta airlines bugaloo 2 yeah baby!!!!

    In those wind conditions, a low time FO of any sex or race should not have been doing the flying. Anything can happen, even to a high time pilot, but less things like this happen to higher time pilots for a reason. Years ago, we had a high time very well respected captain hit the tail during a...

    Does Zeiss make this scope with a ZMOAi-T30 reticle or some that could be used to range with if my LRF went down on a hunt...

    Delta airlines bugaloo 2 yeah baby!!!!

    Yeah I’ve done that in a DC8 with the inboard’s and on the A-300 as well, although not to the stops. None of those times was I trying to go around. I’m not sure exactly what situation they found themselves in other than they went around and hit a wingtip due to gusty crosswinds. I would love...

    Delta airlines bugaloo 2 yeah baby!!!!

    No. Once you start a go around by pushing the power up and raising the nose, you are committed to that manuver. I have not seen a video as of yet and don’t know exactly when they hit the wing, before or during the go around, but it’s almost always safer to go around than try to force a botched...

    Mostly-peaceful left sets up site to target Tesla Owners...

    What I find amusing about all of this is the fact most Tesla owners are left wing nuts or leaning that way. Maybe they will trade them in on Rivians; wait, that assumes they still buy into the BS that electric vehicles are good for the environment are not just virtue signaling. Crazy times!

    Cheapest place for kestrel 5700 elite?

    So the Optics Planet 10% coupons, even for signing up for text messages don’t apply, but when I put a Blaze Orange 5700 Elite with link in the cart it had a red “Special Offer” box. I clicked on it and it gave me a number to call and that person offered me another $30 off, so before tax, it was...

    Best trigger for a precision rifle build?

    It tends to be a personal thing, but I prefer two stage triggers. I have both TTand B&A, I like them both, but would put my B&A Tac Sport Pro X on top of my TT. That thing is smooth.

    Delta airlines bugaloo 2 yeah baby!!!!

    Main line Delta, or CRJ Regional? Big difference in experience in the cockpit. I agree a 30 kt crosswind with a wing that low is no joke and this probably happens more than you would guess. I use to fly DC8’s and it didn’t take much to hit an inboard engine on the ground in a strong gusty...

    Best All Around Supressor(titanium)

    Depends on your use. My understanding is this is only a possible issue if you’re trying to use something like a 30 cal magnum with a short barrel; think 20” 300PRC. Otherwise, you’re ok.

    anemometer recommendation?

    https://kestrelmeters.com/products/kestrel-5700-ballistics-weather-meter-with-hornady-4dof My question to all you who use the Kestrels geared toward hunting with a ballistics program is one of the features listed for them vs the forestry models, is wind direction. I’m not sure how it...

    anemometer recommendation?

    How about one of these, I haven’t used one, but they look pretty capable: https://tempest.earth/weather-meter-for-shooting/ I’m kind of in the same boat. I am wanting a weather meter so I have better data in my ballistics app (Chairgun, I know, but I can’t get Strelok back on my iPhone) for...

    Who Makes the Best Switch Barrel Rifle?

    Well, since you didn’t specify a certain use, I love my Blaser R93; probably not what you’re looking for though, even in the new R8. If only they made a mag fed chassis rifle…..

    You Can't Make This Up.

    Yep, those that can’t do, teach; typically not very effectively either.

    Slow 308

    How old is your son? Is he actually holding the rifle or shooting off a tripod?

    Slow 308

    If you are not shooting over 250 yards I would run a Nosler 125 Solid Base, a Hornady 125 SS, or a Barnes 130 TTSX. All of those should work on deer out to 250 even if you start them slow.

    Thoughts on the Aero Precision SOLUS ?

    On 12/18/24, I contacted Aero they only way you could, via some message form on their website, and told them a small screw fell out of my Solus Chassis mag catch and disappeared at the gun range. Three days ago, I got a email from them requesting my address so they could mail a replacement...
