Wyoming roadtrip

This June we are taking a family roadtrip from Georgia to Wyoming. We are stopping along the way of course to stay in different states and enjoy different places.

I have in my mind what to take for emergencies etc. My wife also has a packing list started so the family can add ideas.

What would you pack? If you have done such a trip before please share your wisdom.

Also, while in Yellowstone my daughter wants to do some hiking. Any awareness tips for general safety? Also, hiking shoe recommendations? Or will basic athletic shoes do the trick?

This trip is for my daughter's high school graduation and I want my family to have a wonderful time, but my job is safety first.
Thanks

22lr PRS shooters who made the switch to ZCO glass

Seems like I may be missing something.

I understand the clarity is top notch and eye strain can be reduced but have you had a noticeable increase in points during a match? Is there more nuance than optical clarity and turret feel? I watched shooters chase gear to improve scores but I have been a bit reserved while using the fast follow method.

What am I missing? Is this the 1 and done?

TV recommendations.

Looking to get a new tv and I'm growing tired of researching. Currently own an LG "A" variant OLED at 77" but that's staying at our house in Colorado.

I'm wanting to step up in size. 83" plus.

Clearly OLED gives the best picture quality but what I don't like is the reflection from the overhead LED lighting in the ceiling and the pendent lights over the island in the kitchen. The new house has an extremely similar set up so I expect to get a similar glare. I can live with it but was hoping to get some feedback from members who might have already gone through this process recently.

Trying to go as cheap as possible. Really don't want to go over $2500 and would be thrilled to keep it under $2000. And if you have found a really nice budget tv under $1000, I'd consider it. It would be great to hear from those who have been able to compare their budget tv to another high end tv and would say something like "I love my LG G series OLED but the LG mini LED is 85-90% the tv for 25% of the price".

I need to eventually get three to five tvs and budget is a concern, so a $800 good enough would likely win out over the $1600 OLED if it's "good enough". But this discussion is mostly for the main tv and the secondary bedroom tvs are not of huge concern at this point.

Struggling with 5.56

I need powder recommendations. I'm shooting 77smks out of an ar15. Barrel is 14.5 criterion core with a huxworks flow 5.56k can. I'm using CCI primers and lake City brass. All brass has been annealed.

I spoke to the guys at Sierra and they mentioned that n140, the powder I'm using, isn't good for a 14.5. what powder are you guys running?

It needs to be temperature stable because I'm shooting year-long outdoor matches and it needs to be obtainable. So h4895 is out lol.

Please help.

Even with federal lawsuits and investigations they still continue their DUI for profit scam.

They are perfectly happy to accommodate and work with none English speaking invaders BUT a native born kid on the spectrum sure triggers them ! Gotta beat last years $9 billion in traffic revenue. Not being drunk is no reason not to arrest

What Optic Are YOU Running?

There are threads with folks asking, "What optic for 300 yards?" or "what optic do you recommend for under $X?"

I am asking something different.

What optic are you running on your rimfire, and, more importantly, why?

I am hoping for a lot of responses giving a wide variation of scopes for rimfire use and their various features that you find useful. Hopefully, you can add one or two things you do not like about the optic, too.

This can be a good reference for others in the future trying to decide on a rimfire optic.

A professional seeming cop, takes what he thinks is meth- cause a junkie told him- takes it back to department and smokes it in the fucking bathroom - at work, a police station and the only reason he’s still among the living is they had NarCan. Stupid fuck smoked fentanyl thinking it was his usual daily dose of free meth.
