    Ultimate Hunting Rifle?

    You got it mostly. Add rail for night vision/thermal clip on. Change caliber to 30-06 or similar for worldwide ammo availability. We’re talking worldwide 24-7 365 hunting. Versatility and availability. Hold on, maybe switch barrel set up. Why limit to one cartridge. Same bolt face etc...

    Night Vision Looking to get into night hunting Need Recommendations

    Hell if I know, ask somebody else that’s an expert. I mean that sincerely. There’s so much new stuff out there to keep up with it all. I look at friends new thermals when I can hunt with them. I got to many kids to feed. Everybody wants thermal its the new thing. Some of us still rocking the...

    Night Vision Green vs White NV qestion

    LASIK shouldn’t bother anything. Hasn’t for me. I’ve only looked through white phosphor in a pvs14, and honestly I didn’t care much for it. Not enough to pay extra so I guess I’m the outlier in the meh who cares category. I will say that my eyes got vastly more fatigued from shifts day and...

    Night Vision Looking to get into night hunting Need Recommendations

    Look around for a used or discounted FLIR 233 since some people are pissy FLIR is discontinuing civi sales. Some folks might be looking to offload them. Good enough for the close ranges you want. Other wise save up for something else. I’d take an entry level thermal over the gen 1 or 2 night...

    Hunting & Fishing Y’all talk me out of a 22-250

    Look for an old Remington 700 heavy varmint in 22-250. Those things are beautiful.

    Hunting & Fishing What Foxpro should I get?

    The fusion and similar sized ones pack easier in a backpack or even some coat pockets. Have called in coyotes half a mile away at times with an old fusion model. Crows from that far as well. Maybe get the bigger ones if calling a mile in high wind.

    Farm progress

    Good mechanics and machine shops can keep the old machines rolling for decades. My late grandfathers Case 1066 tractors from the 50’s are still pulling duty. Faded ass lead paint still hasn’t rusted. Just a little where the lights are screwed into the fenders. I haven’t heard any farmers...

    Virginia Bill Requiring Firearm Competence Proof

    In regard to said firearms competence proving. Does one get to choose who holds the apple on thier head whilst one demonstrates said competence? Friend asked on behalf of another friends aquaintance.

    OMG, the best chess set ever.

    Battle for the White House. There lies the whole problem with that mentality. A nation with an economy greater than many others combined is just to tempting for some who want nothing more than to fight for control of it for personal gain under the guise of leadership. But make no mistake, it...

    OMG, the best chess set ever.

    Saw the ad. Amusing yet so sad at the same time to think what has transpired for people to understand the gist of the whole gimmick. As my late great uncle was fond of saying. “It’s a sad situation”.

    Night Vision No SiCo Radius alternative for say $600? Seriously?

    I’m working a few miles from the Shiner Bock brewery. What’s that worth for making trade with The German. I think they still have some holiday special brews. For $2500 It would be hard not to consider selling mine as well.

    And it's Flu Season

    They should have an orange biohazard label on that stack of reading material. No way I’m touching that. I don’t care how much I like the deer picture, not gonna. Daughter had the Flu-B two weeks ago and the baby has the cough. I don’t think mine is flu but whatever it is has got to go. To much...

    Virginia Public Safety Assault Ban Squad

    Does it pay a shit ton. Probably not. But if it did, what if some pro 2a people applied but just lied their asses off to get in. Then just do a shitty job like politicians already do. “ Dang boss, they got away again those pesky gun owners. They always get away. MRAP always breaks down etc.”...

    28 nosler vs 300 prc

    Switch lug system or similar. Pre-fit barrels, try them all out since the bolt face is the same. There’s no shame in being a rifle or cartridge slut.

    Night Vision No SiCo Radius alternative for say $600? Seriously?

    I’m in the same boat and keeping my eyes peeled for the next thing. I grabbed a Radius in 2016 full price expressly for ranging with NV. Works better than expected. Then they were gone and I wish I had a spare since they are almost a rare bird now. I have bigger fish to fry with my cash but...

    Turning a so called Assault Rifle into a bolt gun?

    The opening post brings to mind turning an AR rifle into a Ruger Precision Rifle. That was my first thought upon reading it. Possible, I think so. Simple enough to be worth the time and expense for parts or machine work, I can’t say for certain. Personally I wouldn’t bother with it.

    Turning a so called Assault Rifle into a bolt gun?

    I decided to keep it reserved and a more tongue in cheek rhetorical way. Other things came to mind but you know, cats and all. People used to wear those wrist bands with WWJD “What would Jesus do”. I was kind of thinking the same thing only with GW instead.
