South Florida, is getting nasty, but I'm still in shorts and a T-Shirt!
 
On the Unity Fast Mount I posted about a few days ago.

15-22 ready for testing. My initial impressions are very positive. First, I’m no longer a turtle on this gun, I can keep my head straight and I had zero clue how BIG this is. Peripheral vision is indescribably better. Another aspect is that I can extend the stock out and grip the rail much better while easily seeing the dot.

The stock instead of being high under my cheekbone is in a pocket above my jaw and feels very natural. I am very surprised how much better this gun feels than before.

I haven’t shot yet as we’re in a snowstorm but I have no doubts about this concept. Just do it, you will find like me that while it looks odd after years of being told optics need to be low, it is absolutely the way to go. There will be more tall mounts here. Gamechanger.

I ran a MPBR calculator on a 10.5" gun with M193 and this height over bore. The target diameter was 4" so bullet never is under or over 2" from bore centerline (except when very close).

Then in Strelok Pro I ran it with this zero of 53 yards. It is good to 225y inside a 4" circle. To me this is excellent for use with a dot and up close is easily handled. Unless you're doing headshots at 5y it won't really matter much if you compensate at all but not hard to remember to aim a little high on a small target. The same was true with a lower mount too but a little less offset. This is completely overshadowed by how much better the gun feels when it's up and my body is in a natural position.

Might want to adjust your ballistic coefficient and muzzle velocity...unless you've come up with the fastest .22lr known to man.

He’s the classiest 2 year old I know 😎
Follow me here, I'm not sure if I can describe this well enough.
This is just a dream shot. I used to shoot black and white in highschool, and you really got a good shot there.

I knew a artist lady, big shot, she was real good.
One of her specialties was taking a black and white print and Subtley paint one or two small items a gental color.
Remarkable artwork. In example she could paint the jacket and Mittens, or maybe just his cool hat.
If you knew anyone, get it done for the child's parents, or hell, yourself.

So its back to the future 70's style mount heights.

Not this one, but have been to something close to this near Taipei in Taiwan.

Apparently in the culture there, its common to have a 'family outing' to go see grandma/grandpa/dead relatives on the weekend like you're going to the park or something. Not sad or dreary at all, more of a weekly chore kind of. The graveyard, if you could even call it that, are laid out in a constant stream of organized tombs and stones just like the picture that goes on, over the changing terrain, like its 'grown' over centuries.

You then leave them fruit and burn fake money for them to have in the afterlife.

Grandfather was an iron worker/rigger in NYC and hung iron on the Chrysler Building in the background. Still have his union card and pass for working at the Brooklyn Naval Yard during WWII. Died as a result of injuries sustained while working there.
Those men were cut from a different cloth. My neighbor Fred hung steel in skyscrapers until he moved here and started his own steel erection business. Still hard but not multiple stories hard. He’s in his 80s but still tough.
