    Have you ever want to scream....

    "BULL DUNG", or something like that, upon reading some posts, that you know are totally beyond the mechanical abilities of whatever type of firearms, bullet and load involved?

    Don't start with this.."Just because you can't do, it doesn't mean he can't do it."..stuff! There is some stuff posted, that is not just beyond the plausible, or the probably, but beyond the possible.

    There now, I feel a little better.
    Disclaimer: The above is not holy writ. It is just my opinion based on my experience and knowledge. Your mileage may vary.

    Boolits= as God laid it into the soil,,grand old Galena,the Silver Stream graciously hand poured into molds for our consumption.

    Bullets= Machine made utilizing Full Length Gas Checks as to provide projectiles for the masses.

    "Have You Ever Wanted To Scream..."
    If you do, just remember this, NO ONE CAN HEAR YOU!
    Except people in your vicinity, not us.

    Merry Christmas,

    I don't scream. I just shake my head and rolls my eyes. "Yeah, right. Whatever".

    Sometimes you just have to throw the BS Flag and get on with life.

    ESPECIALLY when it concerns politicians.....

    I'll admit I screamed a bit when I got molten lead splattered all over me.

    Go ahead and give them up. I'm sure we would all like to have a laugh too. That's what I do, laugh, and then proceed to point out their errors. At which point they generally go on the attack and that can be fun too. Over at GlockTalk I have a group of devoted followers. All I had to do to get them is point out their errors and not back down when they came after me. It has been a HOOT!

    I'm with you Chargar. I love the " I plan to do it because I want it to happen ballistic realities be damned" posts.
    I also like the "best" posts. Does the " best" exist in shooting other than in the mind of one person?
    WOW, do I feel better.

    I have the great skill to not know if it's possible or not. But then again not being possible has never stopped anyone before... Just ask the Wright Bros.

    I don't know your age and thats fine, but I get the impression your not 19. I find as I'm getting up in years my BS meter peeks a lot easier than it used to. Everyone says "walk away" Maybe some folk can, but if its not in your biological make up it's hard to do huh

    But its the world of fantasia that keeps some businesses alive

    Whats worse is when your very own personal memory says one thing and simple facts say another. Then you end up screaming at yourself.

    Most people here need to see it done in front of their own eyes before comprehension that they "just could be WRONG" sets in. If the rifle can do it with jacketed, then its your skills with cast "THAT ARE LACKING". 357 Maximum got a real good dose of that this last summer.......................... Ask him about it. And Charles, the earth is flat was a very commonly held firm belief, just like some things here.........................

    Knowledge without understanding is a dangerous thing. For a little knowledge entices us to walk its path, a bit more provides the foundation on which we take our stand, and a sufficient amount can erect a wall of knowledge around us, trapping us in our own ignorance.

    Never sleep, never die

    Knowledge is easy to get, but worthless if you never use it. However the info is free, so the only person you have to blame is yourself if you chose not to use the information.

    What's funny is identifying the screamers so you can watch them.

    Screamers like to set the height of "the bar" so that everything fails.

    Was that shot with 10, 343 shot groups at sea level in a dead calm? Cause if it was windy, the wind could have blown " a " flier back into one of those groups. Or if you were high up, gravity would have less effect on low going fliers.


    Reading can provide limited education because only shooting provides YOUR answers as you tie everything together for THAT gun. The better the gun, the less you have to know / do & the more flexibility you have to achieve success.
