Need help with understanding my groups
Again, lot less shooting experience than many here, but one thing that hasn't been mentioned is potential carbon ring in the bore increasing pressure (and velocity) and resulting in more inconsistency. Do you have a lot of rounds through the gun and was the cleaning pretty thorough? Seems like...- Gulf of America

Need help with understanding my groups
My Rem 700 in 7 Rem Mag hated the box of Bondstrike I tried - I don't have as many years hunting/shooting under my belt as many here, but it was the first time I've seen a particular load group massively different in a rifle than any other. Both Federal Trophy Copper and Barnes VorTx 150's...- Gulf of America

Artificial Intelligence and Public Comment
That’s haunting, it’s a level of vulnerability that you rarely get from someone but that I think we all crave. I haven’t used any of the chat bots but now it makes more sense that there are people who’s chatbot “relationships” are the most fulfilling they have.- Gulf of America

New threat to 2nd A?
We agree on this one. I appreciate the honest dialogue that was had, especially early in this thread, but it seems like the time it takes for everyone to retreat into their partisan corners is about 4 days. It's January and I found two ticks on my dog on Tuesday, so might as well get out and...- Gulf of America

Data Centers
With the caveat that I'm increasingly turning into the old man yells at cloud meme when it comes to tech and AI, and that I think the data revolution is causing way more harm than good for society as a whole, and the caveat that there are environmental concerns and data centers are a blight on...- Gulf of America

New threat to 2nd A?
I haven't seen long enough video to know if Good was impeding police - from the agent/murderer's cell phone video, she appeared to wave ice by, but I don't know why her car was across the road the way it was. In the incident that he was shot, which is the only one that matters as far as his...- Gulf of America

C’mon man, you know that’s not what I’m talking about. If you think ICE isn’t going to be at best hassling, at worst detaining legal citizens waiting in line to vote, you haven’t been paying attention.- Gulf of America

If videoing with a phone is impeding law enforcement, I sure hope you hold the same ridiculously light standards towards impeding the right to vote in 10 1/2 months.- Gulf of America

New threat to 2nd A?
I think a big part is that he/democrats totally misinterpreted the mandate they came into office with. Just because family separation and much smaller scale abductions than what we’re seeing now we’re massively unpopular, they took that as any immigration enforcement being unpopular.- Gulf of America

Unknown Suppressors OG Experience
It’s very recent development, like within the last week. If they’d had them in-stock on Capitol on the 1st when I pre-ordered my Airlock 7, that might’ve tipped the scale for me.- Gulf of America

Unknown Suppressors OG Experience
Wow there was some serious dyslexic typing on my part. I don't think 1/2x26 or 5/8x28 are even real things. You're correct - printed-in 5/8x24 threads, so I need an adapter for my rifles that are both 1/2x28.- Gulf of America

The airlock requires a 1/2x26 to 5/8x28 adapter too. I guess it's less special than the OG one, but added weight and cost nonetheless. Wish they'd make them in 1/2x28 recognizing most folks are putting these super light suppressors on lightweight guns with thin barrel profiles.- Gulf of America

One other factor, even though it goes against the choice I made, is that you can get the US OG through Capitol Armory and not pay additional FFL transfer fees. I pre-ordered an Airlock and all local FFL's I contacted for the transfer charge at least $125, so the price comes out a lot closer to...- Gulf of America
