    MPVO for Tactical Games Thoughts/Recommendations

    Anyone know if these guys were at Shot, or seen/handled this one in the wild? Until C_Does mentioned this on his channel, had never even heard of Vector optics. Any real US presence? Do like the possibilities of the reticle, however.

    Primary Arms Optics - Discovery 2025: PLx Compact Long Range Scopes Unveiled

    Am of the opinion that the Deka or Athena may be the more useful for my applications, and I do like the Griffin in GLX 1-6 and PLXC 1-8, though the Neptune ‘appears’ very busy-maybe too much so to be applicable for gas gun usage. Decent field of view, turret quality and solid IQ throughout mag...

    Likely already under contract for a newly designated terrorist group just south of the Rio Grande!

    Primary Arms Optics - Discovery 2025: PLx Compact Long Range Scopes Unveiled

    @koshkin or anyone else at Shot who could run by Primary Arms and weigh in on the reticles on both of the PLX long range scopes. Those of us who have shown interest have spoken our unsupported opinions without having stuck our face up to the lens for a real view. Trying to remain optimistic...

    Anyone use Silica Gel Packets-Desiccant Packs to keep moisture out of powder?

    I use the throw away desiccant packs in any new powder container to attempt to regulate the RH of product, and my SD’s are generally in single digits. Having said that, do see some volume vs weight variation over time with same settings on Redding powder throws. And I have no way to measure RH...

    AR Take Down Tool

    As necessity is mother of invention, in finishing off 5 identical 22 ARC builds on V7 receivers with very tight fit, had to provide takedown tools for their new owners. Could not find the original one in center, so cobbled simple nylon pins from 5/16 x3.5 nylon hex bolts, tapered using Dremel...

    Entirely too much information to digest, aside from obstructed view of target or trace.

    Revolver load .357 plated in 9mm?

    If you want a certain answer to your question, slug your bore with a slightly oversized slug, and same with each cylinder throat. Ruger has tightened up tolerances in cylinders, maybe-maybe not in barrels. I picked up a 5” GP100 that has good throats, an off center forcing cone and good barrel...

    MPVO for Tactical Games Thoughts/Recommendations

    Glass As you mentioned the reticles for new PLX 2.5-20, what is with the boxing around tree in Neptune reticle, and is the Athena G2 supposed to mimic the Griffin in a way? Cannot see if the center is dot or chevron. Sure would like to see a through the scope view, as I really do the the PLXC...

    Proof Research RMA Turnaround time?

    Ask for Nick Palmiter, he was very helpful when working through a similar situation as noted above. Mine were turned around in about 6 weeks, and turnaround was based on proximity to recently completed production run of 22ARC barrels through their shop.

    Rifle Scopes *UPDATED MODEL *PRIMARY ARMS GLX 2.5-10

    Very interested to see how PA handles their reticles in the future ie. dot vs. chevron, with most not available on relevant ballistic apps. Would really like to see them flesh out the PLX lineup with new mag ranges-not sure if new 2.5-20 or 2.5-10 are PLX, reticles-though Griffin works well for...

    Road Bikers Unite!

    Am certain I need a new rim, spokes and nips, but hub is good and well maintained and cassette is brand new. Sure, a new bike would be great, though at 72, not sure I want to drop $5-7.5k on a new ride. Hell, my mtn bikes are still both 26’s with XTR, and solid components, but have a hard time...

    Road Bikers Unite!

    Could use a reference for wheel repair. Have been riding a Colnago CT-1 since early 2000. All Campy Record 10spd with Zipp 303 rim brake clinchers. No ability to adapt disc brakes. Pulled spoke through the rim after all this time and cannot get anyone local to rebuild/repair. 28 spoke rear...
