NATO

The EU is incapable of a combined arms war, period. That said, Ukraine was utterly outmatched by Russia and here we are three years later. Russia is obviously not very capable either. Our only real adversary is China, and all our planning and energy needs to be focused on them, because if we start fighting them we are going to start running out of shit fast, and their production power dwarfs ours. Unless we can start to match their industrial capability before we start fighting we will loose. Much of what Trump is doing is to onshore production back to America. He is not stupid like most of our politicians (and the idiots who elect them). Bill Clinton started the offshoring of our capacity for easy money and cheap goods. Turns out cheap goods are incredibly expensive in the long run.

Rifle Scopes Steiner M7XI IFS Why isn't it more popular?

So I pretty much only shoot at night with either thermal or NV clip on's. I've seen the Stiener M7Xi IFS 2.9-20x50 pop up several times over the past few years. I keep coming back to looking at them and wondered why are these not more popular for nighttime shooters running a clip on? Obviously, folks who run a dedicated thermal scope wouldn't have a need, but I shoot out to 1k on deer each summer and being able to dial and have the HUD once I have a range and seems like it would be awesome.

What is the downside (cost aside) I am missing?

too fast. burn at the stake on national TV. the lesson needs to be firmly implanted into the minds of EVERY member of congress and their helpers.
if this stuff is "proven in a court of law" and no chargers are brought,no arrests,no punishment then we must admit to being done as a society.
the amount of deliberate planned destruction of our nation really gets beyond the need for "law". evidence before a tribunal and immediate termination. fuck their civil rights.

The Brits may have two nuke subs that work and one flattop that may work on a good day, cutting checks that will not clear.
They can’t even maintain their tridents


New 77g 224 bullet

Anyone else have any more experience with these?
Do they load ok at AR mag length? Is their stated BC accurate?
Shot the meads today, I could probably tune either one to work, but I’ve got better results with similarly priced or cheaper bullets so I’ll probably stick with them. Everything was shot with varget. I’ll keep them on the shelf for the next barrel.
Was that from an AR Or bolt gun?


American Reloading has Blems that may be these bullets. Only thing I'm going off of at the moment is the name in the description. No other manufacturer came up when I used the search term "Match Varmint BTHP"

Currently torn on whether to order some to try out. I have plenty of 75gr ELDM for the bolt gun and 69smk for the AR... but there always seems to be an itch to tinker.
