I got the Bushnell so long ago, I forget how much it was.  The eyepiece is larger than the objective lens, just by a little bit.  It might have been $40-60 back in the mid 2000's.

The Simmons was like $40, I think, with a $30 rebate, I think.  Got it maybe 4-5 years ago.

So, I've got a couple scopes for one of my 10/22's.  Bushnell 3-9x32, or a Simmons 8-point 3-9x40.  Both cheap low end, but both good enough for this rifle.  It has a 20" green mountain barrel and a Hornet trigger.

Best optics forum... which is the least crappy of these two scopes?
I don't know the answer, or how much they cost, but I will say for plinking the PA 22lr ACSS is pretty tits

1-6x24

I need to make sure I get a little OT now and then to cover the "healthcare fee" for not wanting to disclose my personal information to several 3rd party companies.  They wanna charge me more, I'll just "work" some OT to cover it.

Crossfire II 2-7x32 would be plenty for this .22.  $130 on PA.  If I see it cheaper locally I might just snaggerate it.

I am feeling like that lately too. The Hungarian FEYG is almost ready to hunt with. It could do it right now really, I'm confident of a heart shot and kill even with FMJ match ammo. Not my first choice to use FMJ and I'll hold off and tinker with the S&B 180 SP, but it will hit POA every time right now

The Tiger is nuts on tighly zeroed now with 7N1. 7N1 doesn't fragment but it tumbles after impact. I do plan on using that as my main pig round for the forseable future since I appear to have run out of 203gr SP



That 203 must be some slow moving shit.
2300ish
I take that back, we chrono'd 200gr extra match today and it was 2550. I doubt the 203sp is much slower

The PA 22lr ACSS is $289 but since it's a collectors item and also out of stock, it's probably worth at least 500 now

But I bet the GM is more concerned with getting his ass kissed.


That's the problem with many small/medium businesses.

That shit don't fly when the GM answers up to a CEO who is held accountable to a board and shareholders.

Wife has a bunch of GMs reporting to her, each responsible for multi-billion/year business units, they are either aligned with company goals and delivering without causing problems or they are gone.

IMO, a large part of the problem is the regional manager. He does not comprehend the realities of HVAC in this area and that our selling season is different than the gulf coast. So the GM is doing what he's been told to do, but it does not work as well as they want to here.

It's also absurd to drop pricing to sell a job without having the customer give anything up. IMO, it makes us look like cheats and word like that gets around in this town.
You have to know your market and one thing sales people do all the time is ignore the local guys like you that know their AO. Stupidity, arrogance or whatever it is I don't know, but I see that a lot even in my oil and gas business. I worked around a shit ton of consultants who thought they could sell anything to anyone and it just doesn't work that way



Yep

It's almost like the market gets to dictate what the ceiling is for the selling price and who your competition is.

Weird

But I guess since I don't have an MBA, I'm just being difficult and not getting on board.
Oh you don't have your MBA? This conversation is over and consider our friendship terminated
Jeeez, all this fucking time I thought I was talking to a smart guy and now I find out you're not an MBA

That's pretty much how it is around here now.

Oh, well. I'll just sip my Coke as they keep getting emails from corporate about why their margins are falling.
