Maggie’s Motivational Pic Thread v2.0 - - New Rules - See Post #1

Different context, I think. If solely the context between Road-Runner and the coyote, he cannot speak but can only hold up signs that speak for him... as does the road-runner when needed. I don't think the coyote was ever referred to as "Wil-e-Coyote" in the road-runner context. Just "Coyote" with the taxon names at times. Same for the road-runner. All the rules, totally followed to the letter.

In fact, in the Bugs Bunny Context, I think some of those Road-Runner rules are broken. Rule 2, for one thing. In the "Operation Rabbit" short, plan #5 involves him filling carrots with Nitroglycerin, all inside an explosives shack. But, unbeknownst to him, Bugs has moved the shack via tractor onto a set of active railroad tracks. One knows what happens, thereafter.

I don't think that's a result of the Coyote's "ineptitude," unless you flunk him on his lack of SA.
I think, or rather IIRC, Wile E Coyote did speak in a couple of cartoons, but not the Road Runner cartoons, but then again, I do not recall what he ws called in the non road runner cartoons, if anything different,


I do recall that the Pink Panther only spoke once, and said, Why can't Man be more like Animals, or something similar

Does it matter who machines your barrel?

I have Craddocks and they shoot spectacularly and I have just received a precision spun Bartlein and it shot really great last weekend ( waiting on a second). I didn’t know D. Wilson chambered barrels. Honestly I would take the precision ( now called Samurai) just because they do a great job and I don’t wait a year. That said D.Wilson does spectacular machine work and I trust them explicitly. Craddock and Precision are about the same cost. Not sure on what the D.Wilson cost plus barrel blank would be. Any of those three would turn out a great barrel.

New 6mm Advanced Rifle Cartridge

I quit Leupold long ago. Not because I’ve broken one, but I RSO at the local range 5-6 days a year, and shoot in the off hours a lot.

I’ve seen enough people complain about broken leupold, or not holding zero, or turrets that don’t repeat/tract. Even the high end Leupold scopes.

I’d rather not have to pay $1500+ to have a decent hunting scope that tracks true and returns to zero, when Arken and Athlon and others make scopes under $600 that track true.

Flame suit on, but the Philippines and China are giving Oregon a run for their money value wise.

Rifle Scopes What scopes have all these features?

Since the OP is in Canada, he might want to check with Doug at MarchScopes.ca and look at the March-FX 4.5-28X52 HM with the Shuriken turrets and the the PDKi reticle. Doug has it listed at CDN$5,200. He's in Alberta.
You know the 5-42 prs edition with shurikens might be the winner.. ;)

Rifle Scopes March 5-42 Gen 2 PRS Edition – FML-WBR or FML-MT? Seeking feedback from those who've switched from tree reticles

I am obviously bias… but FML-WBR has done very well already in prs matches and provides most shooters with what they need depending on how you shoot and execute stages. The evolution of how most shooters are shooting prs matches has become a mixture of dialing and holding deltas or simply dialing the entirety of the stage. One of the major things that’s changed is being able to mark the turrets and utilizing either tape or in the case of the March prs scope the writable turrets to speed up the process execution wise for dialing the stage as needed.

We did quite a bit of comparisons of reticles at shot show this year with many shooters of all walks of life and the general consensus after talking through it was the fast majority of shooters actually wouldn’t use a tree for various different reasons. One of the things I did is had guys hold over and on trees and overlaid there holds and what we saw time and time again was inconsistency in holding from shot to shot which untimely shows up in score over time. Where as holding on a defined point was very consistent over and over, pair that with marking turrrts and going through the exercises and many found they couldn’t actually break shots faster with a tree than an experienced person dialing could.

Not to confuse holding Windage versus full tree holds, many shooters hold Windage on the horizontal line while just dialing the elevation between shots but very very few hold pigs in space in a tree you simply can’t execute for score in the prs environment doing that and be successful compared to dialing elevation.

Most shooters dial Windage and elevation approaching a stage, then dial elevation from there and depending on time and Windage deltas they may opt to hold wind from there or dial each target. Everyone is different and reticles are personal much like a pair of sunglasses we simply don’t all love the same things.

As for the March PRS Edition, I am again very bias as the person behind its design and the FML-WBR but I can tell you March is known for having some of the best glass in the world and many guys have looked through them and the general response is… “holy shit this thing is really good” and I suspect you’ll see more and more performances and folks with them in the incoming months.


Sorry for the delayed response I saw your message @zenm@ster and have replied.

Someone murdered Charlie Kirk

From one of the comments about Starmer below that X post.
This Tommy Robinson person is not wrong in his comment.

The UK is doing some backward ass governing right now. It's almost like they are trying to purposefully disintegrate their own culture and doom their own bloodlines to extinction.

Tommy has been going to bat for the locals for years.
They've thrown him in prison and everything up to.
Been following him for a while.

No heated grips…. Heated vest… mice chewed through the wires in vest… so fucked there.

Long undies, Barbour sweater and FIDO.

Made it fine but was shivering some at the Yellowstone General Store. It was 55 by the time I showed up…

Sirhr
I left Wilkesboro NC one morning at 22° and snowing. I rode through Boone and across the mountain into TN. Somewhere around Elizabethton TN it was around 50° and I was damn grateful for the above heated stuff.

Trump designates Antifa as a terrorist organization

You know all the leftist clowns are going to use this more to push that the current administration is fascists or nazi. Its gotten way out of hand on the delusion of that side. He'll they are already blaming the goverment for all these private companies firing all the people that showed hatred online and on tv..

I'm just really tired of the ignorance and whining of the violent left.

Someone murdered Charlie Kirk

You sure get butt hurt about stuff a lot do to your reading abilities. You’re too stupid to realize how stupid it makes you look. I’ll break it down for you because you lack the brains to figure it out obviously

Legally speaking- “a perspective or explanation based on legal principles, rules, or statutes, rather than on moral, personal, or practical considerations.”

So legally speaking he fucked up,

1. They aren’t going to pretend he didn’t pepper spray someone for painting on a wall they allow people to paint right or wrong.

2. The painting wasn’t going to stay forever it’s a public bridge people constantly repaint.

3. I’m not going to cry about a painting when something that really matters in the scheme of things just happened, an actual man/father/son/brother was just killed in cold blood in front of his wife and child fuck a painting that can be repainted.

You can’t separate feelings and emotions from facts and logic, just like the left you bitch about constantly. You’re less herpes and more full blown AIDS, you don’t come and go.
He’s butt hurt? You just quote replied to his post twice.
