    Range Maximum Energy limits

    My guess, and only a guess, is for berm damage. My range doesn't allow 50bmg or it's derivatives for that reason. They probably use the energy as a way to restrict any new cartridge without having to try to keep up a list.

    I like the way you think. Another possibility... The Russians called Potato's bluff, punched the bully in the nose, and he ran away crying. I know for a fact NATO air assets were targeted in that area before and it was only Providence that averted a shoot down over a year ago. I'm not sure how...

    I respect Elon, but here he's wrong. Or to be more specific, he's falling in to a very old trap. He's correct in that hypersonic and drones will become more ubiquitous on the battlefield. But not all problems require technological solutions when a change of TTP can more efficiently solve the...

    Another example that this worthless regime was run by theater kids. Don't get me wrong, I enjoy a good show from time to time, but I wouldn't want these vapid morons in charge of the local coffe shop, let alone the country, but here we are...

    Boeing Claims It Will Be Ready for Pilotless Air-Taxi Flights by End of Decade.

    Yeah, I'll second this. One nice solar flare, and you've got a bunch of whiz-bangs running into houses, buildings, power lines, and hillsides. That's not to mention GPS map shifts, high wind gusts, birds, or party balloons (yeah, I've seen them all). I always tell people I don't get paid for...

    Guys, my 96 yo grandmother, Isabelle, is starting hospice tomorrow. She can't clear her lungs anymore and the doctors have maxed out all they can do. Asking for prayers for peace and comfort for her and for mom and aunt (Joyce and Debbie) as they care for her.

    FL Former Atty Gen. Pam Bondi is Pres. Trump's new Nominee for US AG!

    I remember her. Was impressed, from what I remember. Seems like Gaetz may have been a decoy..great if he gets in, but we have another in the breach that will SEEM like a concession. At least I hope that was the chess move.

    Mayor Adams Indicted by the Feds

    Yeah, his days where numbered when he started talking about the illegals. I have no doubt the corruption is real, but they are prosecuting because he made them look bad.

    Rifle Scopes Steiner T6Xi 3-18x56 Review and comparison with NF ATACR 4-16x42, S&B US 3-20x50 and March 4.5-28x52

    Yeah, they do. I used the tenebrex on the ocular, but I like using the MKM cap and ARD on my objectives. The ARD helps cut some glare and helps protect the objective when I throw the clip-on on.

    Rifle Scopes Steiner T6Xi 3-18x56 Review and comparison with NF ATACR 4-16x42, S&B US 3-20x50 and March 4.5-28x52

    If anyone is looking at obj caps for the T6Xi 3-18x56, the MKM 2.50 fits like a glove! I emailed them since it isn't a listed scope to let them know. I really like their caps and ARD. Good design.

    Night Vision How important is rail position for clip-on thermal use?

    I put an MKM ARD on the day scope, so I can use my finger as a feeler gauge as I put the thermal on. Works pretty well.

    "A veteran C-5 Galaxy pilot said all 17 people survived the April 3. 2006 plane crash at Dover Air Force Base, Del., mainly because the pilot did his job." Well, sorta. Yeah, he kept the wings level, (que Paul Harvey voice) but now, the rest of the story... They had an engine failure on...
