    Fair point, but simply being armed at a protest was cheered on by many republicans, while now republicans are booing the man who had a concealed gun at an ICE protest and didn’t pull it until he was afraid for his life. And many are saying he came at ICE waving a gun when the videos I’ve seen...

    Fixed that for you, message me when you have some actual facts to dispute what I’ve said. All of it, not ignoring points. The double standards of partisan politics. Neither republicans nor democrats are immune, but the republicans are far worse right now. I’d love to identify as a Republican...

    You gonna ignore the ICE shootings, war crimes using potentially lethal toxic gas on legal citizens,, children kidnapped and robbed of belongings by ICE just for ICE to immediately sell them for cash, kidnapped very young children from their parents for hours at a time, all of the Trump actions...

    I don’t expect everyone to agree with me, but the people have a right to protest. If ICE is in the streets, which are PUBLIC property, the people have a right to be right there with them and protesting. And if ICE kills someone without being 100% beyond any reasonable doubt of self defense...

    This meme is my opinion on people saying you shouldn’t protest ICE. Whether you agree with ICE’s massive presence right now or not, protesting is a constitutional right. Throwing snowballs is what caused the Boston Massacre, one of the major lead ups to the Revolution. Let’s read the...

    Hodgdon Superformance?

    Federal 210 match. I use match federal for pretty much everything. 210m and 215m. I don’t reload for anything that uses a small rifle or pistol primer currently. In his old age he was more of a fair weather hunter so I never bothered with magnums. Might have been worth it if he was younger and...

    Hodgdon Superformance?

    It worked good in a 270 I loaded for (uncles gun, he’s since passed away) years ago. Never got a good ES for my standards but plenty good enough for 350-400 yard hunting. I’m just nit picky. ES of somewhere around 35-40, SD around 15-20. Mind you that was in a savage axis. But accuracy was half...

    What is your favorite conformation?

    For Mr its uniqueness and character. I’d take a lopsided sheep over a “textbook example” any day Both of these next pictures are stolen: I’d take this sheep any day over the one after it To me, the likelyhood of getting a sheep that looks like the former is significantly more rare and...

    Proper rifle fit VS recoil

    Lightest recoiling I’ve ever shot (stolen pic from a different gun but same stock): The one I shot was a roughly 9 pound scoped 300 norma mag improved 40° shooting 245gr bullets, and it felt incredibly mild to shoot, almost no muzzle rise whatsoever due to the butt pad going above the...

    Proper rifle fit VS recoil

    Interesting… because from a physics perspective having less drop reduces vertical recoil. Just goes to show that fit is personal. From pure physics, the higher the center of the recoil pad is relative to the centerline of the bore, the less the gun recoils in an upward direction (muzzle rise)...

    First shots Winchester Safari Express 375

    I also turned down several new M70’s due to being unable to get a good sight picture with a cheek weld (it appeared the comb was either far too low or the height of the rear sight was far too high, either way) Gives me hope I might find one someday that fits me as I definitely want to stick...

    It’s easy to watch a video and say what an agent should have done because it’s an easy decision. Civilians are expected to behave erratically. Officers, agents, and military, are supposed to be trained to handle those situations. Officers are TRAINED to not purposefully put themselves in front...

    I don’t really like getting into this sort of thing on the internet but the Supreme Court has ruled that an officer cannot put himself in front of a vehicle and then claim self defense when the vehicle starts to move towards him. On several occasions. In slow motion, all three shots were fired...

    25 RPM

    That’s on the opposite side of the spectrum but very much the same idea! Why not? 3800fps with a 135, significantly less efficient than yours lol, but should be able to beat that by quite a bit given almost the same velocity with significant BC improvement. I’m curious to try the new heavy...
