OP here, Thanks for the feedback everyone. I have two ultramounts that I torqued to 65” lbs and they’ve held zero just fine for several months. I also went with Koeng for my current piggyback solution. I’m hoping once I have the funds to do my other optic (Steiner P4Xi 1-4) there will be a cheaper $50 type solution.

I don't have a whole bunch of AR15 rigs. Aside from my 300BO hog rig, I have three 5.56 setups, but still, going what is considered 1st rate on everything gets expensive.

What I found to be a great bang for the buck is the Leupold Mark AR mount. The plain jane one that goes for around $80 at midway. There is an available ring topper for it that runs about the same price as the whole mount, but still, the setup comes in at under $200. The ring topper red dot plate is removable (for a koeng, etc) and does accommodate a Leupold Delta Point. It leaves you with options. I opted to do some minor modifications to the DPP mount, allowing me to mount a 407k/507k footprint dot. I went with a Holosun EPS. There also a DPP to RMR adapter for around $30 on Amazon and it appears to be well made.

Hmmmmm, just maybe, could it be that Greenpeace was actually right about the potential it could rupture?

Oceans batch 28 was good. 31, not so much.

Maybe BT can create a Kentucky Wooden Raft Craft line.

Yeah, the Jeff’s Ocean “Voyages” (batches) are very hit or miss for me. Some are great, some suck…most just good, but not worth the premium.

Voyage 24 was exceptional; think I still have one bottle of that remaining.

Speaking of exceptional, rules:

Athlon way better in every category except the app.

Sold
Thanks Vitali

You f'rs usually post all kinds of news, normally my first stop for news is the pit, saw this 2hrs ago and figured surely there'd be a thread, y'all disappointed me

I don't have data on 6.5 Hornady TAP or Fed TRU, but I'm getting high 2500's to mid 2600's with 140gr Bergers from 16" 6.5 SR-25s.
I really don't like Hornady plastic tipped projectiles in self-feeding guns.

Hell, they don't do too hot just in the magazine:

Didn't we do this thread last week?

I would recommend a 30mm Tract, but they are not cool around here. I just installed two of the Toric 30mm FFP hunting scopes, have a couple dozen different ones.

Doug will hook you up if you call him.

A wise old man I apprenticed with back in the old days had some pretty good advice. Make sure your work boots and your bed are comfortable because you will spend most of your living years in one or the other.

I buy a new pair every year, keep 3 different pair at work. I stand on my feet on concrete all day, usually in a high carbon fiber dust area. Some days I swap boots during the day. Since I switched to American made boots and Darn Tough socks during the covid lockdowns, my feet have been happy.

Newest pair on the top left, others are 2 - 3 yrs old, just chunked a 5yr old pair because the eyelets finally gave way.

Try and get some young goat and look up birria recipe. The goat is traditional Mexican but you can use beef.

I got beef from a food truck in Fort Worth and asked why. The lady in the truck smiled and said because white boys normally don't know what is good.

LMAO been eating at her truck for years.

I have been saying this shit FOR ALL MY ADULT LIFE!

The only time I've gotten the flu as an adult is when I gave in to my mom's hounding and got a shot. Like clockwork I got flu. About ten years ago I told her no more and to stop saying it, because I was not doing it period.

same experience in'75. never took another 1. it takes a long time to develop a vaccine and prove it to be safe. virus can mutate way faster than that and they do. so,this years shot is about 2 yr ago virus at best. we all know the covid vax story. experimental "vax" that wasn't really. some new tech that couldn't find a market for prev10 years. released by gov with no proof of efficacy or safety immunity from damage suits. we see the results and will for decades likely.
we don't see any sanctions for crimes against humanity however.

I hope they keep swapping wins all the way through the season. Let's get back to the seasons like we had in the 80s, where we came to the last race with several drivers still in with a shout for the title. THAT would be fun!!

The snow plow driver was the key to the whole case

I remember some years ago when when a sportscaster was supposed to call a college football game and they pulled him from the line-up because his name is Robert Lee. And then see a pic and read his bio. He is of chinese descent. The racial religion of the left AKA dems is that even asians are bad and to be "canceled."

Click to expand...

Asian American conservatives are the worst nightmare of the left, because Asians already have a world famous reputation for weaponized passive aggression, backhanded sucker punch "compliments", and laughing in mofos' faces while doing shit to deliberately offend them, all among the backdrop of being extremely hardheaded and stubborn. I think that is why even the most belligerent leftist activists refuse to get into a contest with an Asian American MAGA guy on the streets, no matter how we try to bait them.

Saudi Arabia increased production , energy and oil stocks down, gas prices down, need a situation to drive prices back up.
My cynical opinion..

Partons Pizza
They were very good till the kids took over. screwed up the sauce ?
Used to have lots of salt and fennel to get you to drink more beer.
The hamburger and onion with added jalapenos were awesome.

That place on main street in Weatherford is great but crowded as hell.
You have to use the back street and come in from behind the place.

So if you know about the kids owning it, you know about "I Gotcha"

All you can eat pizza buffet and then $7 all you can drink

Which usually ended up with someone starting a fist fight
