    So you already started a crowd sourced scope evaluation last week here on SH.

    How about figuring out where to hold a class in TX during the fall. I would love to join you in Alaska or Colorado, but job and timing hinder that at this time.

    Your videos are great. Have you considered doing a series to reinforce chapter content in your upcoming book?

    More short videos on nuanced topics like bipod height to get comfortable behind the rifle and ensure NPA. Or rifle movement due to variation in body type (musculature in the shoulder pocket) at time of shot-follow through (I am thinning as I age, and have a slight ccw torque during follow through as a right hand shooter). Or real focus vs just going through the motions, and the impact lack of hard focus has on training.

    Just a couple of thoughts.
     
    When all else fails or deserts you, you can always fap. There was a good thread about that a couple weeks back in case you need some pointers, or we could send Centfapulator . (y)

    Oh shit, did I hear the bancat meowing at my door?
     
    We got a few inches, but like always the winds cleaned that shit off the roads for me and I was still doing 70+ heading to work yesterday. One advantage of the lockdown everywhere is less people packing the snow on the highways, so they can self clean.

    Most of it didn’t even get plowed, I think they had the plow operators working from home and the counties saved themselves a ton of money by not paying them holiday pay. Assholes...
     
    you need to make another scope review video like the old Bushnell scope that you had tied to a four wheeler, blew up with tannerite and beat the side of a fence post with just to show it would hold zero.

    I think you should get an SWFA fixed power and use it like a tomahawk to chop the ever living shit out of a Chinese scope equivalent and then strapping it on a rifle to show that it still works LOL. It could be fun!

    I've got a solid foot at my house and still coming down. Love it, just super bummed lifts aren't spinning. I've been taking the little dude out to sled and will take him out for some very sort skiing (down the sledding hill) while I get my daily work out by pulling him back up the hill (rope with a stick tied to one end makes a great human powered T-bar).

    Take an old Ergo USO Scope and beat a Chinese scope to a pulp with it

    This way if both break, no big deal, LOL
