    Help me choose fast twist Tikka 22 center-fire

    I checked midway and brownell's. All .22-250 brass is 'not available, no backorder.' anywhere else I should look? They did have 22 Nosler in stock but I don't know if that is an option in Tikkas Edit: midway also had 22creed, arc, Valkyrie, swift . . . but not 22-250🤷‍♂️

    Help me choose fast twist Tikka 22 center-fire

    Thanks Willfrye, I may be looking for a 22arc. I do want a 'daily driver' that I will shoot a lot. Can anyone locate 22-250 brass?

    😂I might be answering my own question here, but anyway . . . I used the Hornady app to compare trajectories. This is not precise but rough comparison of dialing at 1000 yards in 10mph crosswind: 75gr mv2820 30moa up, 7.8moa left 88gr mv3050 22.4moa up, 5.6moa left 147gr mv2820 23.25moa up...

    Help me choose fast twist Tikka 22 center-fire

    I have a stainless Tikka in 6.5 Creedmoor. I want a 22 center-fire to match it (same trigger and stock-I'll probably have heavy and lightweight stocks and trade them back and forth) so I'm not interested in other actions. The purposes of this gun in order of priority are 1) lower recoil...

    I sold the last of my BTC today. Roughly tripled my bet. The more I use and study Bitcoin the more I think it will be really volatile for the mid-to long-term and then eventually fade away. I do agree wholeheartedly "everyone will ultimately buy Bitcoin at the price they deserve" 😊 here's to...

    Coinbase maintains a substantial commercial crime insurance policy that covers theft of fiat currency or digital assets from Prime Trading or Vault I wonder what they mean by 'substantial'

    Yes. At some point, some Bitcoin investors are going to be 'left holding the bag' when their uninsured custodian is compromised and BTC's price is skyrocketing.

    I think if an employee at Coinbase custody decided to rob the ETFs all the ETF owners would be SOL until that coin could be recovered. Anyone know something I don't? Are those ETFs really uninsured from theft or loss? This is from the fine print under BlackRock's IBIT: "The Sponsor is not...

    If so, those are the kinds of developments BTC needs Edit: GBTC's custodian is Coinbase. I couldn't find any evidence it is insured against theft. I did find this about Coinbase's accounts for individuals: In case of a covered security event, we will endeavor to make you whole. However, total...

    Someone is running and updating the bitcoin software. So, you have to trust those people to do their jobs perfectly and you also have to trust the folks who make hardware wallets, as well as the miners. I'm going to need some credible insurance before investing in crypto rather than gambling...

    For that matter, are not the 'gatekeepers' a third party? They are the ones who update bitcoin software. It seems to me that no software will ever be trust-less. You will always have to trust someone. I will 'trust' the bitcoin system when: 1) There is a method to recover lost coins 2) An...
