    a2+b2=c2? Gravity affecting a shot

    If your original question was about how rifleman's rules relates, theoretically, to the parameters of distance and gravity, it doesn't. It's an empirical approximation.

    a2+b2=c2? Gravity affecting a shot

    Rifleman's rule is to just use the horizontal component of the distance.

    Garmin watch for upland hunting

    It is probably better to find a current model that fits the budget rather than an older one. This is true of most tech, to ensure you get adequate product support. And also Moore's law.

    Found some primers

    This is nonsense. The 6.5 Creedmoor typically uses standard small rifle or large rifle primers, depending on the brass.

    WTT SWFA SS 6x42 MOA for Mil

    If you are on the fence, the MOA reticle is really nice - arguably better. Finer crosshairs, center dot.

    Velociradar vs. Labradar LX vs. Garmin Xero

    The chance of Garmin killing their chronograph product now is far smaller than the chance that Labradar will be out of business by EOY.

    3rd Row SUV Experiences

    Had a Highlander and never made use of the third row; it cuts into storage space too much. Worked fine for two kids and two labs if you have a cargo topper. When we had our third kid we got a Sienna.

    House design, what is the purpose of this design?

    That space was probably left open simply to help ventilate hot air.

    How do you measure Trigger Reach?

    It is often measured as a grip-to-trigger distance. However, since the geometries of riflestocks vary quite a bit, I think it's better to measure this qualitatively. I.e. can you get perfect trigger control with your hand comfortably on the grip of the rifle?

    Drop the 1,500 ft.lbs myth

    As I understand it, bullet expansion is largely dictated by drag, and drag is proportional to velocity, but independent of mass. Therefore it is not useful to include energy in the discussion of bullet expansion.

    Tikka issues

    Do you have a case gauge? I would not reload once-fired .223 without one, unless it was fired in my chamber. The case dimensions in range pickup .223 are allover the map.

    Tikka issues

    CIP headspaces the cartridge the same way, the callout is just different. They are essentially the same based on the drawings. How did you figure that CIP is longer?
