Better glass than XTR pro around 2k used???

The Razor G3 you mentioned will be a definite step up, although not earth shattering. Same for the ATACR. What you're getting more of in those two is really mechanical (tactile turrets etc...) more than glass...but the glass IS better.

The S3 that you mentioned will have better contrast, but not clarity/resolution IME. However, the reticle will stand out more for sure, and that will make a difference if trying to shoot stuff other than paper targets.

My NX8 is basically a wash in glass with my Pro. I'd run the NX8 only if weight were a factor.

Those are the four that I have in addition to the XTR Pro.

Hide victors of the yard... looking for some suggestions here...

Contact your Ag Extension office. Whatever you are seeding and how you maintain it has to be compatible with the soil and the local climate. If the soil is too shitty you need to fix that first.
This.

Its all about the soil. I can see from your photos yours is lousy and the way youre going about it youre just wasting time and money.

Forget the Scott's. First fertilize what youre got. Get some good river bottom topsoil (not the clay mixed with compost crap some sell). Spread at least 2" over the whole yard. Seed it with the seed recommended by your Ag. office. Roll it lightly and water. Keep it watered every couple days until its established. Fertilize every 90 days or so.

You'll have grass coming out your ass.

It wasn’t attempted. It was a completely effective, largely bloodless coup.

Elon Musk announces the "American Party"

The two party system is broken AF, anybody who can’t see that it’s the same pile of shit with a different name is retarded.

+

Nobody wants to let more parties in because “if you vote how you think but it isn’t part of the ‘same shit different name’ party, you’re retarded and are now my enemy because YOU made us lose!! 😭

Moral of the story? Everybody’s retarded, there is no solution short of tearing it all down and starting over. Again.

I said it the last two elections, maybe God will have mercy on us and actually let it happen this time: Giant Meteor or Nuclear Winter 2028. Let’s get this shit over with already, I’m tired of it…

Member Link Up Decent outdoor rifle range near Cincinnati, Ohio?

Per the title, I’ll be just NNW of Cincinnati while my grandson attends a hockey training camp this weekend and next week. Looking to bring along a rifle or two and maybe get in some much needed range time.

It can be but doesn’t need to be longer than 300y, but available distances will help me decide what I’ll bring.

And yes, I’ve done a brief search, but much prefer someplace where I can be comfortable and even meet up with someone while I’m there.

Any suggestions?

When I see things like this, I'm certain we need another civil war. It's beyond time to eliminate these folks.

Meh… seen plenty of self-professed “Christians” ‘round these parts wishing similar things (or worse) on Libs.

Y’all need to read Proverbs 24:17-18.
Reminders like this are great, but Christians throughout history were required to fight for their survival. If they hadn't, there wouldn't be any left today. When Christians take up the sword, they are unstoppable. I don't think that's a coincidence. There are chapters missing from the Bible, and there are things that were added to control the population. I don't believe God expects us to allow ourselves to be driven to extinction. You may disagree, and I'll respect your opinion, but while I am a Christian, I do not for one second believe that the bible is the infallible word of God, on it's 7th translation, version 6, translated by a king who's other great literary works included cataloging mythical demons and such.

For conversation purposes (I agree), I also like customization, as long as it is NOT part of the critical path, part or system.

If the magazine is designed to feed and manage the “presentation” of the round and does it consistently and without fail, I will buy that magazine, regardless of how many others I have, as I am sick of having a magazine that “almost works for some chassis” with all these “adjustable” features that just adds to points of failure (basic reliability concepts).

For trigger, that is in a critical path that affects sear engagement, pin fall and timing in concert with the bolt and firing system. BnA triggers at least offer low, medium, high top sears and some adjustability and allow user servicing, but it still has to be compatible and functional with the firing system.

Chassis LOP is in the “user’s” critical path and can be altered without affecting the action’s critical system.

I have several different precision 22LRs and they all differ because each fixes one flaw or another in the other rifle system and yet introduce a new one of their own.

I’d really love to see one rifle system that is completely and reliably functional for its stated use case (that is not so narrowly specified to exclude conditions to cover for inherent flaws and compromises).

I am not a mechanical engineer, so I use this passion to learn from and enjoy the experience.
Agreed. For the M5x, there's a stock and receiver revision required, but I haven't posted the picture of my standard M5 DBM that doesn't have the limiting piston and drops right into any M5 inletted stock and no revision to the receiver.

So, one can make a choice between full featured and standard versions, but the point in all this is, getting back to dimensional purity is key to quelling the feeding/cycling frustrations.
