Well shit! Sitting on a Delta plane now

Main line Delta, or CRJ Regional? Big difference in experience in the cockpit. I agree a 30 kt crosswind with a wing that low is no joke and this probably happens more than you would guess. I use to fly DC8’s and it didn’t take much to hit an inboard engine on the ground in a strong gusty crosswind; you had to really stay on top of it. It never happened to me, but it probably happened once a year at that company. The real question is, what kind of wing spar and integrity inspection happens after such an event?

I bet you won't say that, when someone pops a new asshole in your little raping bastard's forehead.
Oh then it would be unreasonable...
Ok....how about someone just temoves the little bastard's offending private parts.
And take that fucking rainbow mask off, you sacriligious cunt. You desecrate that holy symbol, without any clue how you are being manipulated to do so, or why.

2 completely different things. Google is so good that you don’t need to type a complete thought before it has guessed the right answer. Studies have shown that people have offloaded remembering trivial data and facts, because they are so easy to look up on the internet.

Remember going to the library? You had to be smart to step foot in the door. First, you had to know what category of book you’re looking for.

Fiction? Nonfiction? Geography? Self help?

No, I just want to check out The Outsiders.

Cool, it’s in the “Faction Fiction” section.

Wtf? How are these books organized?

Alphabetically.

By Author or by title?

Yes

You’re not being very helpful.

Oh? Well you can use the card catalog?

What’s that?

It’s a comprehensive data base of all library knowledge?

Ok, now we’re getting somewhere. Point me to the terminal.

Terminal? You mean wing?

Wha?

Yes, see that whole other wing of the library, completely devoid of books?

Yeah?

See the 15,000 drawers?

Yeah?

Each drawer contains 10,000 paper records. THAT is the card catalog.

Le sigh. Which drawer is the “O” drawer.

“O drawer?” There is no “O” drawer. The cards are cataloged numerically.

Numerically? There’s no numbers in “The Outsiders.”

Oh, you sweet sweet summer child. The card catalog uses the Dewey Decimal System.

Tha fuc?

The Dewey Decimal System encodes all of the section, genre, author, and title information into an arcane set of numbers. The books are arranged in the library according to this system.

You said the library is arranged alphabetically.

It is. Alphabetically, and numerically. And, the numeric codes contain letters.

So, how do I find a book in the library?

Use the card catalog?

How do I do that?

There’s a book that can teach you.

Where are you going?

I’m just going to go buy a comic book and look at the pictures.

It's funny because it's true!!!

But Google and access to infinity has not made people smarter...

It has just made stupid easier to put on display.

I'm starting to think I read the first part wrong of "include a picture at the range", and it was "include Every picture of you at the range."
Just kidding Luka- you have some nice and functional looking set ups, and a patient looking spotter (though a bit hairy).

My toys lack the thermals to be completely happy. That's why I'm ready to upload all my photos

Looks like Noveske just dropped their DDF barrel line:

DDF | Noveske Rifleworks

noveske.com

These look pretty interesting. I'm curious to hear people's reports on them when they start to get in the hands of some SH'ers.

Maybe @padom or @Bigjake83 can test some for us...

If Dick’s knocked up Bass Pro, the love child would be named Scheels.

ahahaha

yeah my first scheel's experience was when they opened a store in reno. amazing place, at least imo, blows all the other outdoor-related box stores away.

and not sure dick's is the best example, after they butchered their acquisition of galyans.

They produced a birth certificate for the kenyan in a week. They've had 50 years to work out the details of this and produce the documents. Almost everyone involved is now worm dirt

I sighted in an nx8 yesterday, was pretty impressed with it. can't speak to the March. I've had good luck with the Vortex stuff, the dot is daytime visible.

That's wild, I also sighted in a NF NX8 1-8 yesterday. I'm incredibly impressed with it, especially the DMX reticle. It wasn't my expectation, but I shot a .4" 5 round while zeroing, it's certainly capable of great precision that exceeded my expectations.

Quick review of 16" Criterion Hybrid 416R Nitrided barrel, 1:8" twist, .223 Wylde, midlength

I've been meaning to post a range report for this barrel, a .223 Wylde 1:8" 16" Criterion Hybrid 416r stainless steel mid-length barrel that is factory nitrided. I've had this set up for well over a year, I'm somewhere between 600 and 1,000 rounds down range. I've experimented with a lot of...

I had a vortex 1-10 out yesterday as well, both Optics exceed my expectations which are pretty high considering the price point. Both are outstanding.

I will say that I prefer that these are capped turrets, I do not dial, I use the reticle for all holds as I don't plan to shoot these beyond 650 or so.

Op, take negative reviews you read online with a grain of salt, these are both outstanding lpvo's if they fit your use case.
