CS Tactical Legit?

Interesting. My wife’s father was Scottish and his last name was Donald. His ancestry traced back to clan Donald, before it was wiped out by the clan wars. We visited the Donald clan museum on the isle of Skye a bunch of years back. It’s quite interesting.
Clan Donald were Lords of the Isles, many branches but self destructed.

Veto ban would mean the end of EU – Fico

Brussels’ attempt to circumvent bloc members who vote against its wishes is a threat to democracy, the Slovak PM has warned

A reported EU plan to scrap member states’ veto power on matters of foreign policy would spell the end of the bloc and could become “the precursor of a huge military conflict,”Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico has warned
Orban has also warned that removing the veto would strip smaller nations of their sovereignty.

China going under?

I think you meant Taiwan....

Thailand is mainly chicks with dicks and China is full of them, due to the lack of available women-folk. Remember that the One Child Policy didn't just end up creating a baby bust, but created a Girl bust because there was a literal infanticide of girls through abortion or being 'offed' after birth in order to try for a boy next!

So they certainly don't need Thailand whose greatest 'tech' is in sewing undersized garments and providing sex tourism.

Taiwan on the other hand... ;-)

Yes, I did mean Taiwan.

Some interesting & wild shit getting thrown around.

From what I could tell there were at least two masked Biden's around his size then the tall one later on. I'll call them doppelgangers touched up to appear more biden like.
Clones I doubt it.
But reality can be stranger than fiction so who knows. The world is bizarre to say the least.
I'm fully convinced the cabals have lied about nearly everything. United to destroy and steal yet warring against each other for control with the winners to do more of the same.
The joke is on us.
Definitely a really tall version was thrown out there at least once.

R700 300wm to 7prc advice needed..

I have a few buddies from work all coming out on the hunt, “elk tags in Nevada are pretty hard to get”, they all say I need a magnum cartridge. It would be funny to show up with a 6.5 creedmoor and drop one. I’m sure it could be done lol. I have a 6.5 barrel for another action I have.
My Dad took two elk with the 6.5x55.
A 6.5 CM will do it, but bullet selection is paramount.
Some folks have taken elk with a 5.56 mk 262 load, and several use the 6.8 SPC. I certainly wouldn't recommend either of those, it just goes to prove the point that placement trumps horsepower.
Countless elk have fallen to the 270 winchester and 30-06, magnums are not required. Last I checked, they weren't wearing armor.

I just see that whether it was the real or ersatz biden, it was riddled with mistakes and illiteracy. Could it happen?

I am reminded of Heinlein's book, "Double Star." It is the story of an actor who looks very much like the world leader who has been medically and mentally compromised. They need the actor to stand in for a few appearances. In the meantime, the real president is now gone. So, the actor continues and serves the rest of his term as the president and most of everyone is none the wiser.
There were obviously several “body doubles” regularly standing in for Joe Biden. Considering how many times “he” was a bumbling failure on camera, I tend to think the real deal stayed alive and occasionally active. What are to odds “they” sourced a body double as handicapped as the actual senile pedo?

China going under?

This guy claims China has been in decline for years and their days are numbered for various reasons.

IIRC, he states there's a population decline (due to the one child policy), specifically an up and coming generation to fill the workforce. Lack of food/farming, due to the children of farmers moving to urban centers for work. And a lack of workforce to build tech. Claims there's many empty factories due to lack of workforce.

War is likely, specifically Thailand for their tech resources.

Customer Accuracy Expectations

We all want that. My position on 10 shots is proving the rifle, the rest is the mercy of the ammo. Actually 5 is all I need to prove my work.
I am from a centerfire long range benchrest background. In centerfire we shoot 5 shot groups with 5 group AGG. for results. I shot 3 IBS world records in 600yds. I was the first to shoot below 1" with a 0.749" Light gun record. Not bragging, just to let guys know, I know what I am doing.

I started shooting Rimfire long range about 5 years ago. I use the same 5 shot groups aggs for testing. I have been jumped on about 5 shot groups, not being enough rounds for testing. I'm in no way saying 10 shot or more are not a good way to test, it's not for me.

David I know what you are trying to do, with your 10 shot groups at a test range, where you have no conditions, or shooter error. You are just testing the gun, with each ammo. I know the ammo is our limit.

I am asking why in rimfire, how did we get to groups 10, 20, 50 shots? David this question is not so much for you , but for the group. Rimfire is a BEAST compared centerfire. Gun handling is the main issue in opening group, any inconsistency will change the group. Wind that you can not feel can open groups. Will this effect a 10 or 20 groups more or not. For these reasons alone, is why i shoot 5 shot groups.

Are we expecting too much from a round that will walk around the bullseye all day long, but still shooting great groups. And can shoot great in the morning and so so in the afternoon of the same day. Then the dropouts at long range. Making you say what the hell was that. Sometimes you just can't tell what the next round is going to do. Rimfire is a Beast, but I love it. I sold my centerfire and got more rimfires.

David keep up the good work, you guns are great.

Rifle Competition Events Cleaning for Competitions

PRS is pretty much KD as well. The ukd stuff is not part of it anymore. Do you can range all the targets before you shoot, and most MDs are really good about providing the distance and target size.

I totally get what your saying though. There is an argument for as accurate a PRS gun as possible to ensure you aren't dropping points when conditions aren't perfect and I agree. Over 1000 shots a .25 gun is going to get you more points than a .50 gun, but it's hard to articulate or prove since there are so many variables. It may be a handful of shots but depending on your skill level that could or could not matter.

I clean every 2-300. Shoot 2 one days or a 2 day match and then "clean". The definition of that cleaning is kind of the idea behind the thread.

Agree. Also in PRS you could be kneeling, standing behind a barricade, or in some other awkward position after running to the stage with elevated breathing and heart rate. I’m too old for that, I shoot F-Class. But if was young and shooting PRS I would put much more time in practicing stages than cleaning barrels and hours in my anal reloading methods.
