Brandon wants to hire 87k more IRS Agents

Gunsmithing Dual purpose Camo pattern for browns and snow or not?

The areas I predator hunt primarily include sagebrush, bitterbrush, scattered timber, and bunchgrass and weeds. It's mostly...brownish now but will add white snow at some point.

I'm getting ready to paint a Krg Bravo stock, and am considering adding some white in, with the gray/brown-tan/ OD green (black stock) . Too many colors ? Also waffling on a sponge camo job versus cutting stencils out of painters tape. I have lotsa time so either works.

Thoughts?

Night Vision Thermal Rifle Optic Recommendation

As many are aware, we are very close to making the first shipment of rifles to customers.

As this starts to happen, we'll have some more time available where we can start putting together demos and such of our system/s in action. With the rising popularity of thermal/night hunting, we definitely want to be in that space. There's an overabundance of hogs and coyotes in the area needing some attention.

So, here's a general list of preferences, and we would love to hear your recommendations:

- Excellent video quality. Be it internal or an external dvr needed, doesn't matter much. Just needs to be great for video
- The most range possible. We have the opportunity for relatively longer shots. And will have a raptar or radius on board for ranging. So, doesn't need an LRF as a requirement
- Able to handle recoil of a minimum of a .338. Its overkill, but our rifles shoot large hunks of lead and copper.....just how it goes.
- $5k (ish) price range. Not gonna sweat it if it's a few more bucks, but not looking on spending 5 figures at the moment.


The Pulsar Thermion looked to be a fairly decent option for the above requirements, but you guys are far more knowledgeable in this than we are. So, lets hear it...

Thanks!!

For the neck turners...

Hey guys hope your week is going well as we approach the holidays.
So I'm pretty sure I'm going to purchase the 21st century neck turning tool.
My question is about its use and where in your reloading step do you employ it.
My biggest concern is overworking brass. I don't for example want to full length size my brass, then use their mandrel so size the case mouth, only to have to resize it back down again to set neck tension.
Not sure if I'm explaining my question correctly so bare with me.
Right now I full length size without and expander. Then I set neck tension with a gauge pin. My hope was I could turn in between those 2 steps.

Any input always welcome.

Thanks!!

How to test ammo lots?

Right now I am shooting mid grade stuff ($6-$10 a box) and I just shoot a box of each lot I want to test into 5 shot groups at 50 yards. I do this on two different days and buy a case of the winner.

I am now considering stepping up to ($10-$20) a box ammo and wondering what testing protocols I should be using for better ammo. I am still considering testing myself rather than shipping the gun to the Eley and Lapua test ranges as I don't believe Eley will do testing for their Match and Team ammo lines.

Thanks.

Why doesn't Marc Wilson get the Kyle support???

I don't think it's as simple as Black and While (although im sure that plays some part), But it's not politically charged so as pro 2A people why don't we support "good shoots" when they happen and not only when it's to our political advantage.
This isn't to troll I just wanna know why some cases get all the attention and some just get ignored by the media completely

Nightforce NX8 2.5x20 - Not finding a whole lot of info. on this scope

Been thinking about what scope I might put on a DD 14.5" upper I recently purchased, and thought a Nightforce NX8 2.5x20 might be a good choice, but can't find much info on it. Not sure if this is because it's relatively new and fairly expensive, only fills a narrow niche, or just isn't a popular option.

In any event, what I like about the scope is:

1. Nightforce's reputation for ruggedness, reliability and solid optics.

2. Fairly small size and light weight, particularly for a 20x scope.

3. FFP

4. Wide zoom range.

Honestly, started looking at the Nightforce NXS 2.5x10, since most of my shooting will be 600 yards and in. However, I suppose the extra 10x is nice, particularly if I want to see how well the rifle groups at 200-300 yards. And with a 2.5x20 range, I can dial the rifle down to 3-5X if I'm shooting from an unsupported position and then 18-20x for groups or relatively small steel targets at 600.

I really don't plan on doing any close in shooting with this gun and therefore don't need anything with a true 1X (and honestly will probably never dial the scope all the way back to 2.5x). Similarly, 20X is probably more magnification than I need for most of my shooting. However, I suppose it's nice to have both less and more magnification than I need.

Looked at another way, I'm not sure what scope I'd like more than the NX8 (at least in it's price range). NXS 1x8? A nice scope but not crazy about the reticle for precision shooting and a little more magnification would be nice. NXS 2.5x10? Again a definite option, although I think it's been discontinued.

Vortex 1x10? Don't really need 1x, would like a little more than 10x, and isn't it boat anchor heavy?

Sure I'm missing a bunch of other alternatives (particularly scopes in the 3x18 range like Vortex PST 3x15 or Razor 3-18), but what other options have similar magnification, and are relatively light and compact? And come in at a similar price point? I mean I'm sure Zeiss, Kahles, P&M, etc all make very nice scopes around 3x18, but at what price?

......... a loan of crude oil from its emergency stockpile...... ?

America is consuming it's emergency stockpile of resources at an alarming rate. One more example:

Nov 23 (Reuters) - The United States is expected to announce a loan of crude oil from its emergency stockpile on Tuesday as part of a plan it hashed out with major Asian energy consumers to lower energy prices, a Biden administration source familiar with the situation said.

Compact to Midsize SUV Recommendations

Currently in a '16 Ford Explorer and I fucking hate it. 2000s tech, underwhelming driving experience, and not the most comfortable. Only thing I like about it is the space. The last couple weeks I've been looking at '17-'19 "luxury" compact and midsized SUVs. Right now the Jaguar F-Pace 35t is at the top of my list. Also looking at Audi Q5s and Q7s and the BMW X5. Considered the Mercedes GLE and GLC but not the biggest fan. Any suggestions or experiences with the models listed above?
