Rifle Scopes S&B PMII vs. ZCO 527 vs. Kahles 540i

If you are specifically looking for reliability data, that will be hard to get in a statistically significant fashion. Single user data ends up being more anecdotal. I personally prefer Schmidt, a friend of mine is in love with ZCO, etc... truth be told neither of us have had issues with either of our optics.

I still feel your "most juice for the squeeze" is best served in refining the powder drop for best consistency. Using ball powder does help a lot with that. I don't use a progressive, so I'm just not aware of the tools that'll work best for this objective. If you haven't already, this is where I'd do some serious investigation. 🤷‍♂️

I don't disagree that super consistent powder drops is a good thing for precision ammo. But I think a good place for me to start is with Staball powder in the Dillon powder measure and see how it goes. If push comes to shove, I could always remove the powder measure and add a funnel up there for manual drops.

Awesome suppressor muzzle brake front end attachment by Recoilx

I've got a Maverick on my PRS gun and everything short action, and run it braked in competition, and full suppressed when shooting out in the desert on my own. I'd get one for my big .30 I'm building, but Area 419 specifically says it's not rated for magnums, so now I'm strongly considering picking up a SilencerCo with one of these brakes.

Question is, if you were doing it from scratch, would you go with a $700 Omega 300 DT, or a Hybrid 36 for the extra $400 and the option to run it in K config with the brake?

I have both a Hybrid 46M and an Omega, I went with the 46M so I can use it on my 45-70 suppressed. Between the two, and if I were only going to have one, I would choose the 46M. Nothing wrong with the Omega at all and honestly have way more rounds through it, but the hybrid models simply allow for a lot more flexibility. Both work well.

Anybody surprised she doesn't have a ring on her finger

If she was going in to the office like normal American employees, she wouldn't be worried about her job.

Seriously, losing a job isn't close to anything the North Korean people face, just a few, starving, complete censorship and the potential of getting whacked just because.

Fucking fire her

I have been chronographing my factory Hornady 147 gr loads out of a 24" proof CF barrel over the last two months. 8 total strings of fire collected, averaging 20 rounds each string (some more, some less). Avg Velocity is 2,708, Avg SD is 13, Avg ES is 53. That data is statistically relevant. So anything that good or better will make me happy. What I can guarantee will make me unhappy is weighing every charge. I have weighed thousands of charges on RCBS Chargemasters and for me, in my life right now, with the time I have available, the juice is not worth the squeeze. If I can't crank out these rounds on a progressive and get decent results using Staball, I am going to bite the bullet and buy factory ammo. I do like the idea of using some different bullets and mastering the Dillon which is why I'm considering this. It's all about enjoying the process so I should have mentioned that this is one of my major goals as well. Enjoying and not loathing it lol.
