    Whether in the gym or on the road, when I am annoyed at inconsiderate people, I thank God that I don't have real problems, like cancer, blindness, paralysis, starvation, a cheating wife, or wayward children.

    mil hash rimfire scope? ring height?

    I had not heard of Athlon until you mentioned it here. The Talos might fit the bill. Thank you. Anyone else have any suggestions? Or experience with the Athlon line of optics?

    It is not merely a "feeling," but a FACT. Bone conduction causes acoustic trauma.

    mil hash rimfire scope? ring height?

    My search has not revealed a rimfire scope with a mil hash reticle to mount on a Tactical Solutions X-Ring (Ruger 10/22 clone) with integral Picatinny rail and Gemtech MIST barrel in a Magpul Hunter stock. The closest I have come is the Leupold VX Freedom 3-9x33 with the "Tri-MOA" reticle...
