  1. That’s the thing, both aren’t meeting the demand and I’m sure both would love to flood the market right now. Microsoft’s been on AMDs ass about production levels because apparently MS says their inability to supply the market is because of lack of AMD parts. Supposedly both are ramping up production as fast as possible. MS already announced back in late November that they would back seat the S production to focus on X models for now.
  2. A lot of times the law enforcement discount is pretty meh but then you actually catch lightning in a bottle! Sometimes that law enforcement discount gets you your hunting rounds for $.90 ppr so I’m covered for deer seasons for a while.
  3. It’s going through the decades forward, they appear to have passed the Lucy days. Dick van dyke, Bewitched, next looks to be the Brady bunch.
  4. THE Aurora Borealis!? At this time of year, at this time of day, in this part of the country, localized entirely within your kitchen!? may I see it?
  5. So lots of communist sub tones through the first 2 episodes. Lots of Easter eggs which is fun. Had to do a refresher on SWORD which would be an appropriate tie in given Dr.Strange and also Nick Fury moving on from SHIELD and into the universe and skrull monitoring. Also lots of AIM and hydra references. I’m hooked. Looks like next week will be a Brady bunch decade
  6. Wife daughter and I watched Wandavision last night, solid 2 episodes. I like that they are going through the decades with episodes etc.
  7. Heh keep trying! Think a lot of people are still doing the weekly hunt
  8. Yeah of our group, all 3 have switched to fusion. 1 for his 30.06, this season switched. Another already was a fan but decided on fusion over his hornady. He and I both use 180gr The other was all over the place and found that his sig tread 716i loved fusion. He loves the 165gr. I run a suppressed pistol 12.5” ar10, the 150gr I can get it about 1.5moa, the 165gr I think my best group was 1.2moa but my best group at 180gr was 1moa at 100yrds. It has some serious drop out past 250yrds but I have a ballistic app that I run out in the field and it’s pretty spot on when I remember to input the wind direction and proper temps. With the 180gr fusion I’m getting about 2150 average FPS 2’ from the end of my can.
  9. I never fully understood how the solvent trap purchase and form 1 submission works because it all sounds chicken or the egg type conundrum to me... But I know of some that have form 1 cans that were originally solvent trap purchases. But I don’t know them.
  10. Yeah their .308 a-Max 178gr had been solid but now it’s always sold out. I like it better than just about everything that isn’t Federal Fusion 180gr. Gorilla has been solid for me as well, I switched from a-Max to the Lehigh pig punisher after somebody in here recommended that over the a and v Max
  11. Can’t believe I’m letting y’all in on my plug... https://www.gorillaammo.com/product-category/view-ammo-by-caliber/300-blackout-view-ammo-by-caliber/ They’ve lowered their round counts but it’s still about $1.50 ppr on the hunting rounds, which isn’t the worst considering everyone else is selling range ammo at 1.25-1.40 ppr. I last ordered a 170 count bucket but now they are 160. Also: https://www.freedommunitions.com/ammunition/rifle/300-aac-blackout.html Their prices have gone up a as well. Last month I was paying 1.3ppr after shipping etc
  12. Yeah i got confused. Sam witwer and Phil dumpster look almost identical... My bad
  13. Followed by new comer Xabi Lazo as he attempts to save Sporting Deportivo Avila in La Liga
  14. Why would you buy a Porsche if you’re gonna run it through a touching car wash... I mean I have just a Challenger T/A and I hand wash that hoe every time.
  15. Welp finished up our last hunt of the season... missed out sadly. We had 9 doe walk across my property this morning but the crosses at the furthest possible location, I misread my shot and splashed down short of the biggest doe at 375yards. We’ve also had our property trespassers move to poaching deer. Was walking the lot yesterday and found a blood trail still pretty fresh, pooled blood on the red clay soil. Tracked it from the crop part of my land into the fenced area of brush. Found where the doe died but no body. While we weee gearing up for the afternoon hunt we found the doe skin and the carcass down the path along the fence line. Disappointed and now I’ve gotta involve the GW despite constant friendly reminders to the wife’s extended family that owns the surrounding lands.
  16. On the .308 talk... I have a .308 pistol in 12.5” and I have a vortex 1-8 strike eagle. It’s solid but at 8x it’s eye box gets pretty narrow. I’ve taken deer at 190yards and under 100. I’ve also taken a few hogs and a Yote inside of 150 yards. I run it with a Sandman K or S now. I also have my 300blk that I run for hogs only. She runs with a holosun green dot and 3x mag on her
  17. I agree about most of your Patron hot takes but Patron isn’t exactly low rent tequila for the top end stuff. It’s basically the ripped off version of Siete Leguas, one of their distillers started making Patron silver in the Siete Leguas distillery until all the law suits shook out. I don’t drink patron nor due I put my money towards that over priced knock off of the great great Siete Leguas tequila
  18. Hah, my wife loves that movie. We have it on dvd. It’s so bad it’s good *flips to page 1* if there is ever a stack of millions on the table and you have the ability to take it. Take it. Fin
  19. That reminds me of the old Calico
  20. So I never really connected the dots that Jaime Tartt is the voice actor for Darth Maul in the clone wars and Rebels animated series.
  21. Yeah that was pretty amusing. 3 episodes in, we had to stop so we didn’t burn through the whole season today
  22. Wilbarger co, late season runs Monday through the 17th but that’s it
  23. Last weekend for bucks. Of course we had to postpone our hunting trip to next weekend. Although there’s been no Bucks seen this season on our land, not that we have cams up but between our trips and the ranch hand that moves cattle across my land he hasn’t seen any either when he’s out that way. Hoping to take a doe or 2 next weekend
