They used to say 15. It held fine all the way up to .50BMG. They changed to 25 arbitrarily because their tubes can handle it and people kept worrying that somehow 15 wouldn't be enough and they got tired of people second guessing the 15, so somewhere in the late 2000s or so I believe, they...
What is the rationale for using loctite on this joint? The tube of the scope provides constant tension which is calculated to resist vibration, and, to whit, I have not heard of correctly torqued rings loosening, much in the same way I have not heard of AR15 barrel nuts or mount-to-rail...
I am a huge Nightforce fan, and have NX8's on all my stuff. I began using them back in 2019 or thereabouts when the capped turret models came out.
Several things I have noticed:
1) They are boring. That is to say, you always get what you dial, they just hold zero, boring.
2) You need to...
That sounds good and all, but cultures are constantly evolving. A wonderful place turns to shit real fast. The reverse can happen, too. It's often cyclical. In my industry, we have a 5-7 year cycle where facilities will go from horrifying to work at to amazing, and gradually back again, every 5-7.
What do you mean "take your retirement with you"? You quite working as soon as you've saved up enough to coast into the grave. Be that at age 25, or 85.
Thing is this, you hate something, but you gut it out to pay the bills and support your passions...but then you need less of it or none of it, so you are removed from it...you should get better...but you don't. Because your hatred intensifies as you begin to understand just how bad it was, now...
I work in the medical field. Your job experience and resume are your leverage tools. And jumping jobs every 18mo for best results. Even our CEOs only average 12-18mo in role before moving.
I can vouch for this. I have significant tenure over a coworker of mine, who does my same job, and who has near identical time im my field. I would put our performance on par. He came on with the company years after I did. His base pay is 15% higher than mine.
Further, there is talk of opening...
Your earnings over your career are likely @50% lower based on the studies I've read, but you may garner satisfaction from working less because you are more adapted to the environment and spend less energy through efficiency. That's the tradeoff.
I am just worried about it in the sense that I hope my mental health doesn't decline further. People think that's stupid, but I tell them regarding overtime, once you become angry and fed up, and stop pulling OT, you think the hatred will get better, the anger, anxiety, depression, but it...
There is no solar lean on my house. Further, my estate has appreciated significantly more than the $30k or so that I owe at this point. The sale would not be problematic. The warranty for my panels is 30 years production guarantee. Which means they should be producing 80% or more then, what they...
While I don't agree with all of it, and find it skewed, I also don't agree with people saying I need to pay more taxes and when I dont, Im "taking their money" from them. Or whining about kids in Nigeria mining when nothing in my car came from Africa.
