SOLD Bushnell XRS3

I had a glitch when ordering and ended up with two. If I could afford to keep both I would. This thing is pretty sweet, I’m impressed. Save some tax and shipping, brand new, sealed in box. $1650 shipped and insured.

Can't zero scout scope on Springfield M1A

I purchased a Springfield M1A SOCOM16 this summer. Love the rifle. Bought a Vortex Crossfire 2 Scout to mount on it. The scope is level,the rings are the lowest profile that will work. I can't adjust the scope down far enough to zero at 25yds. It will adjust up for days. I've seen folks using this combo all over the internet with no problems. Is this a problem with the scope,or am I missing something? I'm relatively new to optics,so forgive me if I'm missing something obvious. Thanks in advance!

P.S. Iron sights work great. I put my first rifle buck in the freezer with it a few weeks ago!

SOLD Schmidt & Bender, Hensoldt, Zeiss, Elcan

Hate to see these go but need to put some more funds into a project.
Schmidt &Bender PMII Ultra Short 5-20x50, tan. The scope was mounted, shot only once. SPF
Elcan Specter TR1-3-9. Brand new, never used. $SPF

The only trades I’ll entertain are as follows:
FP PEQ in good condition + cash
Some high end 3D printers in good working condition.
For the right deal I’ve also got a Breitling watch that I can add or possibly some cash.
Thank you.

Factory lapua neck tension

Has anybody ever had a pressure issue with lapua on the first firing? I’m running a tamish load and when doing charge weight test sometimes the pressure was at the lowest charge weights, actually the heavy bolt lift was never on the hotter loads. That leads me to believe it may be the heavy factory neck tension it’s about .005 on most of the cases, but I’m guessing the ones with pressure signs maybe a little more. Any advice?

I got a Laser Beam and it makes me Happy

So I grabbed a Laser beam, a little portable style entry-level one and I love it

I only wish I got one that does metal now, this one stops just short of dong metal, although I did see a hack I have yet to try.

But this thing is fun, I am marking all sorts of stuff

I may have to step up to one that does metal but if I do, I am going for one that do a Yeti style cup too, I want to engrave bigger stuff

Fricken Lasers man, I love it

Concerned about my exposure to fiberglass.

I’ve worked at a company that manufactures heated cabinets for the food service industry, and have been there about 4 years now.

About 2.5 of these years, I’ve been building heated cabinets which utilize fiberglass roll insulation. Every morning, we cut the necessary amount to size, for the cabinets we plan to build for the day.

When building them, we use hanging pins that fold up to hold the cut insulation pieces in place along the interior of the cabinet. We do not wear masks, nor any special suit. Just typical beater work clothes.

I don’t know why I had never thought about it, or noticed, but two days ago I noticed all of the glass dust that comes off of it when disturbed. I happened to be wearing black jeans, and when using the flashlight on my phone, I found my pants to be covered in the glass dust.

I started to look around, and found it everywhere. On the interior of my brand new car, on surfaces of my house, etc. I used to just walk into my house and strip, not knowing all of the glass dust coming off of my work clothes into the open air. I’m sort of freaking out over this.

I’m sure all of my clothes are contaminated. I am unsure how to even clean my vehicles interior (if even possible) but most importantly, I’m worried about my health after reading up on things. I am desperately trying to find new employment, but in the mean time I am trying to calm down.

Any suggestions guys? WTF should I do?
