I Spy New Baby Razor G3 4-24

I think there is value in consistency of the markings, so my preference is for 0.2mrad based tree reticles that are not excessively busy. The two centerfire rifles I use the most both have Gen3 XR. My rimfire bolt gun trainer that I shoot more than any other rifle I own has RG3 with EBR-7D on it, which is also a relatively unobtrusive tree reticle. I think these represent the type I like the most overall. I would prefer for both to be very slightly thicker, which is probably what I will get in the upcoming 4-24x Gen3.

Double leg amputee- shot 11 times in the back

Spending a majority of my life watching YouTube on the side of the road then playing road pirate/hall monitor when you hit the last video in the stream doesn't sound like an appealing career. Especially since I really don't want to take a serious pay cut.
Then it sounds like it’s not that big a big deal then.

See the reality is, if it was a big deal, then you wouldn’t be using a gun forum to just come a bitch about how things are unfair. You guys are like a sub-branch of democrat degeneracy, quick to point out the things you dislike but never having a realistic solution. You want the institution torn to shreds but have no concept of what that actually would be.

Give it a rest.
"We've investigated ourselves and found no problem with what we did"

Corrupt departments CANNOT be trusted to review things properly.
Cowardly, Corrupt, Complicit, Compromised courts cannot and will not do justice when it comes to the Uniform Hangers that give them their power.
You should probably take a break from the internet. You literally have no idea how the process works, so your arguments are invalid. The criminal investigation is done by an outside agency.

300 yard consistency

Had to sight in a new scope today. Still waiting on new ammo to arrive. Ran 100rds of CX. used 10rds to sight in and 10 used for tall target testing.

Best 10 shot grouping @ 100yds = .85" vertical, .30" wind
Best 20 shot grouping @ 100yds = .94" vertical, .74" wind

I did observe a cold bore shift at the 50yd which made me second guess my windage zero.

The shot groups seem to tighten up as the bore gets warmer.... I will try to source a thermal cam to record this next trip.

79 shots recorded with the XERO (1 got ejected due to cold range) the results for CX are as follows:

Min 1077.3 FPS
AVG 1091.9 FPS
Max 1110.3 FPS
ES 33.0 FPS
SD 6.2 FPS

Im curious how barrel temp impact MV and would it be worth it to set up a DAQ and thermo couple the exterior of the barrel at (X) interval.

Want to lower that ES for sure. I have not recored such a long string before. at most 30rds but typically 10 - 20.

More to come when the new ammo arrives.
33fps is about as good as you are going to get.

Over 10-20 shots you can get better but over 50+ an ES of 30-40fps isn't bad at all.

.308 Winchester

308 Win 22" 9 twist 5 R Bartlein Rem Varmint. 177 gr SMK 545 G1 BC 3045 fps, with hybrid cases.
Or single load 230 gr Atips 2601 fps ave from same 22" 308 barrel.
I love innovation as much as the next guy... Those are some HOT loads. Have you ever thought of pressure testing any of these? Have you checked for lug setback on your stock Rem 700 actions?

These loads are approaching 300 Win Mag velocities with a case that holds 48 gr of powder, versus the 300 Win Mag which holds ~82 or so. Despite the hybrid cases how do you avoid primer failures?

Sling Studs to Flush Cups

I would also prefer the flush cups than someone screwing a wood screw into my stock, period. However, on the CZ 457 AT-ONE the rear sling stud is in the plastic housing that covers the adjustable comb and stock. Getting that to look professional and factory is going to be hit or miss. I haven't removed it and I kinda don't want to. Rather than deal with that I can snap one of these on and go. The front stud is getting a flush cup..

X - Vectronix Shooting Solutions

I feel like I’m going to get a headache after just 1 minute of trying to look through these. I much much prefer my Fury’s over these. Not sure if maybe I have a defective unit or something, but this definitely won’t work for glassing for game or shooting a match, that’s for sure
There must be something wrong. Or maybe you're just different, kind of doubt that though. These are just as easy to get behind as the fury's, but so much better. I do however find them easier to get behind than swaros for some reason, i can never get the eye cups just right on those.

The RRS mount was a design for a problem that barely exists. They made them for non-leveling fluid heads. Well there are several leveling fluid heads on the market, and are super cheap as you only need to hold up a light pair of binos. If you're using a ball head, their absolutely unnecessary.

Sidearms & Scatterguns Sig just can't get out of their own way

Show me the instances where they’ve gone off in glove boxes or center consoles. You know, since people aren’t the cause.

It won’t go off in a glove box on its own. It needs some kind of pressure and very very few units are affected but the affected models definitely have an issue where the strike can release without a trigger pull.
