Those are both great scopes, but for a good deal on a very good scope, you can get a Burris 4-16 x 50mm, E3 reticule, illuminated for $249 @MidwayUSA, it’s a $480 scope, very clear, light weight, smaller profile but good eye relief, has adjustable objective and a side knob dial to turn on the illuminated cross in low light, I’m loving mine.

The trades are already running short of qualified workers and the skilled labor needed to build all these Data centers and keep their power sources maintained will require a large number of skilled trades workers.
I would love to be a field manager watching AI or Tech Specialists trying to do combustion turbine overhauls, HRSG internal repairs, cooling tower gear box and fan change out, and pages of other trade craft jobs. The trades will be safe for my great grandsons to retire from in 2095.

Canon Pixma 6000 or 3270, both have worked great for us, we have printed over 1000 pages and still on the first bottles of ink, the ink is easy to add and not expensive.

Timberland Pro Titan or Pitboss, I prefer the Titan, they’re very comfortable to me, I also add a Spenco Polysorb Cross trainer insoles for about $23, I have feet problems but can work in these 12 hours a day and longer.

A friend has an ATA Arms NeoX, it’s an Academy brand that’s $400, we both like it a lot, it’s pretty much the identical gun as the Weatherby Element that cost $700, shoots good and ejects light load hulls good, might be worth a look for you.

Have a 2022 Silverado, I’m about to try the L9 gear on daily drives. Recently had the Fuel Pump Control Module fail, it left the truck completely stranded in the middle of the street, had to jack it up on two 3 ton jacks and push it to the curb, FPCM failure left it completely immobilized. After replacing that module with one from O’Reilly’s the transmission has now began to shudder, especially when I’m decelerating between red lights and in stop and go driving, a Google search finds Chevy failures with torque converters and Transmission Control Modules, one video said try L gear and use paddle shifting to choose 9th gear, for some reason that’s the only gear that bypasses AFM and Auto Stop.
GM knows that this is a nationwide problem and has a couple of recalls but they only issued a very small number of affected VIN numbers and dealers won’t do anything unless your specific VIN is listed.

Maybe you could find a shooting range that offers rental or loan guns and try handling and shooting a few different brands.

This is one unfortunate side effect of allowing almost all of your country’s critical equipment, materials and components to be manufactured by your nation’s adversaries and enemies.

If our nation last 250 mores years, history will most likely record that Saudi Arabia should’ve never been trusted.

Unfortunately all this absurdity coupled with a media bought off by foreign influences has hurt America and its citizens. Its affected company boards of directors and shaped decisions that have caused unnecessary costs and hardships. The effects have led to the shutdown of America’s largest natural resource, coal. And it’s led to the forced shutdowns on hundreds of coal burning power plants and destroyed the lives of workers and their families in the mining industries and power generation industries.
It’s led to the strain and destabilization of the nation’s power grid and cost tax payers billions of dollars for government subsidies of new so called “green power” that is not dependable and not clean. The effects of this charade will continue to worsen as energy hungry data centers and other industrial power consumers continue to need more and more electric power.
