Happy Birthday, MM!
Well, I'm doing my part.
Seal team comes on in 5 minutes.Anybody have any good TV recommendations recently? I trust you guys and can only watch my old favorites so many times before I can read the script myself from memory.
It was a lot of fun. Kind of like a 350 mile police chase, while avoiding the cops.Just checked this out. Pretty cool stuff KJ.
I think with choosing an optic, you really have to break it down into groups first, basically process of elimination. The problem is each group is it's own conquest. And honestly, I get hung up on the very first question I ask myself, ALOT. The rest aren't necessarily in order, just thinking of them as I go.Coming from someone as analytical as you, now I don't feel so bad.
Back years ago, when I dabbled a bit with my 308 bolt gun and optics, it all got a bit daunting. Combined that with little access to shoot centerfire rifle at much distance without it becoming an all day event, and all the research, reading and constant second guessing myself and I just decided to trade things off and focus on less brain taxing aspects of the hobby.
That's what I'm watching right now !Seal team comes on in 5 minutes.
Overwhelming information on scopes out there. So many options.I'm having the same problems looking at a scope for my new bolt gun. I really like the DT 6x24x50 I have on my RART, so I'm just going to get one for my Bergerra. It'll let me get 100 yards decently and possibly further. I don't know if I need or want to go out further right now, but wanted something that would let me if I choose to do so. Reading Ryan's book, I know .308 will go out to 800 - 900 yards without a problem and the DT scope, while not being the best by any means, will work.
Stay too long in the political section again?What an absolutely insane day.
All good questions, Dogg !I think with choosing an optic, you really have to break it down into groups first, basically process of elimination. The problem is each group is it's own conquest.

1) What goal do I want to accomplish? Hunt, CQB, 3 gun, long range precision, shoot for small groups at XXX distance, etc.
2) What is my ACTUAL budget? How much am I REALLY willing to spend?
3) Do I want a magnified optic?
4) Do I have issues with astigmatism?
5) Do I need "duty ready"? Am I "going to war" with this optic?
6) Does weight matter?
7) Does size matter?
8) Do I want a variable or fixed power scope?
9) If a variable power scope is decided, do I want FFP or SFP?
10) Is this going on a hard recoiling rifle?
11) Do I need illumination?
12) What kind of reticle do I want?
13) For distance, do I plan on dialing in with turrets or using the reticle to hold?
14) How is the glass, will my eyes do well with it?
15) Does eye relief matter?
16) Does the color of the optic go with my rifle and mount?
17) Will I look cool LARPing with this optic? (Live Action Role Play for you old dudes and no, I don't do this myself )
I have absolutely zero doubt that i am at the bottom of the totem when it comes to knowledge about things and stuff. Most of you guys have years/decades of experience on me, Im just sayin itll work lol. Also i can probably take out a lolipop at 50 with my henry and good ammo. The tootsie pop size for sure, maybe a dum dum depending on the day.P-0830 shoots the pop off of lollypops at 50 yards with a 22. Not big LP's either. The little suckers'. They do not stand chance when he brings them to bare under his gaze.
Avg rounds such as the blazers do not hold consistent enough for that work.....
He knows his rimfires....
WHAT DO YOU MEAN?!?! Ive lived my life by those words!I was high when i said that. You could be 2nd or 3rd...hell, you could even be 4th!
Yeah some of this stuff is off the hook nuts.Looking in the ammo classies I noticed an offer to trade 1 brick of .22LR for an aero or spikes stripped lower. I'm tempted to put an ad up to trade 2 bricks of CCI .22LR for an aero stripped lower.
Binge watching the "Mandalorian"Preferred genre?
If you haven't seen Queen's Gambit check that out.
Westworld is really good. (HBO) Very much awaiting the 3rd season.
You guys act like I have real TV.That's what I'm watching right now !
If you have a request for SGE, you can just say it out loud. Its okay, we're all friends here.We know you love LARPing, Carlos.
Well, what is it, SS .... is it a potato ?You guys act like I have real TV.
