So is that avarege for all kinds of jobs in Sweden together then? Wish I had a job worth $19/hr, that would be SWEET

I don’t live there so if the info I found is incorrect, I will take your word.

I make $14,50/hr now and used to have 12,7 when I first started working. And keep in mind $14,50 is before taxes (24%) My paycheck goes from $2521 a month to $1955 after taxes.

My dad makes a bit over $19/hr and he does NOT have minimum wage, so I don’t know where those numbers came from lol.

Edit: As a reference point, the avarege wage of a certified electrician with 7 years of experience is $16,50/hr before taxes

I got my figures from here (http://www.tradingeconomics.com/sweden/wages). It says the average is 166.8 SEKs which is approximately $19 USD/hr.
http://www.investopedia.com/articles/investing/080515/5-developed-countries-without-minimum-wages.asp

Investopedia states that the minimum wage tends to be 60 to 70% of the average wage. I understand that on the government level, there is no laws for setting wages but by unions in particular fields. Those figures are still a few dollars higher than the Federal Minimum wage, here.

I used to like FX, until I got one, the super soaker experience left a sour taste. Turns out the pricetag isn’t everything and you don’t always get what you pay for. Seems to be the opposite with Taipan though, so a .25 might just be in my future.

$19/hr minimum wage you guys got there, It’s no wonder why FX are so expensive. I bet it’s 35% of the cost to buy an FX. Socialism sure makes things much more expensive and far less competitive in comparison to a free market.

Trident
Was shot in inches not yards,
Can not be leave everything you read. PCP hitting .5 Inch at 200 yards would have to be putting out some major Power,
Unless you put it in a vice and got the angle right , Lets see about 38 degree angle might do it.
Mike

Mike, MOA is angle, so at 200 yards 0.5 MOA is about 1″

Cricket, I would never say any gun could do that. Shit I think shooting an MOA at 100 yards is REALLY fucking hard with any gun not in a vise.

Lol, yeah I know, I’ve tried myself and it’s HARD

Kidcurry: thought someone said the Trident was shooting .5 MOA at 200 yards, my bad.
