Did not change a single thing. Shots just went up, and random.

I've noticed that rifle will inch groups up as it gets warm, but nothing like that. When I saw those shots, I figured the scope was totaled. I was really surprised it clicked right down and held tight after that.

I plan on taking it back out Monday, but I feel no confidence in that scope right now.
Weirdness.
Maybe check with PA. I’ve got 2 of their 4-14x44 FFP scopes on my .308s and have zero issues.
@Laufen is gonna say you need a NF, and maybe he’s right. The huge thing I’ve learned from him about the difference in scopes isn’t the glass, it’s the adjustments. PA might have almost as good of glass as many other higher dollar scopes (I’ve set mine next to a Schmidt&Bender of similar power, and couldn’t tell much difference through the lenses), but it’s the internal adjustment stuff that goes bad with repeated use on a lesser scope - if it was even that precise to begin with.

You should wash your ears out after listening to that bullshit. I remember when rap was a new thing, I thought it was a joke. Of course I never thought folks would be stupid enough to embrace transvestites in the military, or that piercing one's face would be popular,either.

My expectations of people were far too high.

Yeah, I can't argue with that. I might spring for a Leupold for that rifle, but if I invest in a NF it'll go on a bolt gun.

One of the nicest old men I've known was my AP biology teacher in HS. He literally had a rocking chair in his room next to the projector and changed from his sneakers to house slippers at the front door of his classroom. The most soft spoken, gentle, kind teacher with that church boy kind of humor. Then one day one of the Philippino kids in class was speaking tagalog to show off to some girl and mr. Stewart heard him. He comes over and asked what he was speaking, and related how it sounded like what he heard in the jungles when he got shot down in Nam. Then he said how he loved to drink Dr. Pepper while shooting rockets into the jungle or strafing rice paddies in his Huey Hog he named Sweet Girl. He finished by telling the kid hes lucky he wasnt around then because they kinda look the same..it was freaking amazing.

We also had a korean war vet that spent his lecture in AP history telling us the best way to silence attacking german shepherds the east Germans had and how to properly gut someone with a bayonet. It was awesome

Morning. What great weather to drive a fire truck in.

Yeah, you’ve got enough mass and a big enough bumper that lesser vehicles and pedestrians can be ignored.
Just need to mount a 105mm recoilless rifle to the top to take out the occasional dump truck, and someone with an RPK up there to hose the damned motorcycles.

There’s no ‘I’ in Team!!!

Edit: a Mk 19 would do a nice job too instead of the recoilless rifle...
:thumbsup:
