    Best iPhone case/holder for somebody that is rough on phones?

    Lifeproof. Nuud is more livable, Fre is a bit better against water probably. Have not lost a phone in either in five years, and clean my phones in the sink with the dishes regularly.

    Esper Fired

    Esper was closer to what this forum would want than at least a couple decades before him, and definitely more than you are going to get in the next ten years. While SecArmy he turned the dial back to lethality, readiness, and modernization in a big way. Also approved CMP 1911 sales...

    Co-AX, RCBS Or Redding T7?

    Find and replace “550” with “650” and I would say the same. I have not seen enough OAL variance, difference on the runout gauge, or difference in SDs, to justify not using a progressive for almost everything aside from tiny lots. Maybe it’s the natural toolhead ‘float’ but the dillons do really...

    Bushnell Legend T Series 15-45x60 FFP

    There may be some variance between units, like anything else. I was not particularly impressed with the only LMSS I used. Not a lot of difference in image between the Legend T and LMSS although the LMSS was easier to focus and seemed to have better depth of field. H32 was nice as well.

    Leupold Mark 4 TMR Spotters — 12-40 vs 20-60?

    As mentioned above, copy/paste posts are used by scammers to rapidly create a ‘believable’ profile and pad their post count to open up PX access. The scam itself typically does not even involve a counterfeit product. More like you sending nonrecoverable payment for something that the scammer...

    What colour is the Barrett Mrad?

    As mentioned, “multirole brown.” “Patriot brown” cerakote is pretty close. That is a very early MRAD.

    Co-AX, RCBS Or Redding T7?

    Just starting? Rock chucker and save money for all the accessories and widgets that make life easier. There are cheap upgrades to it that keep the primers from going all over. CoAx is very nice to use. It is a bit less versatile than others. In addition to what has been mentioned already, the...

    My "Blue" State

    The urban/rural progressive/conservative political divide is as old as humanity. Nothing new here. What is interesting about VA in particular is that it is clear that the state politics now pivot more off NoVa than Richmond.

    Current shipping issues

    Been having problems with USPS since June of this year. Not only delays, but packages opened or clearly handled very roughly. “2 day priority” taking three weeks is common. Aside from Parcel rates, it used to be similar in reliability to UPS and Fedex.

    "Fixing" a faux M1903A4

    Good advice, thanks. I do have a set of parked rings already for the Alaskan (pictured ring set).

    "Fixing" a faux M1903A4

    This Gibbs M1903A4 repro was a local find. For what it cost, I would have spent more trying to rebuild a sporterized example or reclaiming mail order drill rifle. I am aware that this is a reclaimed drill rifle itself. It seemed like a good guilt-free shooter for local vintage matches, hunting...

    What are some good options to shoot CMP vintage bolt?

    They do have them, as HarryBC indicated. The last mail order batch I remember was in 2013 or so, also veteran's orgs returns. I got a 1903a3 from that push, which was a beautiful 1+/1+ all matching remington. This current batch has colossal variances in condition (particularly bore...

    Rifle Scopes Great PMII prices at Euro optic

    You mean the thing where they bump the list price way up on an item and then put it back on sale for what it used to be?

    Rifle Scopes SHTF LPVO?

    It does, I think my post could have been taken either way- I meant to say that I was never able to get the image as ‘flat’ as just about anything else above $1000. Does not seem to be a huge deal at speed, but if you’re looking for it, you’ll find it. Neat little scope; just need to be sure it...
