No sense muddying the waters with more incorrect information. I'm IN this thread. All someone has to do is ask or PM me.
There are multiple staff on that site and we don't live in the same household......and we certainly cannot read every thread we merge with 44,000 members.
The owner of Missouri bullets is in contact with me and may be providing a response.
glen might read it here anyways, he is a member.
fryxell has a good handle on things he has a degree and stuff to help him along.
his writing is about what he observes and about correct alloys and he gives good advice.
his writing on alloys and such are a lot closer to real world than just about anybody elses is.
you don't have to follow it to the letter.
Look Lycanthrope. That guy is a serious idiot, and is slandering the name of a good company to cover for his dumbassery. You see it, I see it, hell even Ray Charles sees it.
Funny how most people I know still think that cast bullets can't be shot in rifles. Maybe only pistols if you don't push em too hard or if yu are cheap. Just offer to take any lead they have lying around off their hands.
well put Pat
Me, I'm a bonehead... I have a really thick skull, but do remember what I'm taught (or read) most of the time
so when I see someone post something that is contrary to what I have read in the past, I challenge it, so I can get it straight in my head, as I realize MUCH of what we KNEW years ago, just ain't so
but I do listen and learn the new stuff also
I just hit this thread again and then had to go catch up on the other one - it's better than late night TV !
I'm not defending him. I just enforce the rules.
As for merged threads, we don't have weekly moderator meetings to discuss invidual reasoning of every decision. With the volume of posts we get (we have almost 2 million) we often have to move and merge significant number of posts daily.
i just read leadheads latest post ,.. very interesting to say the least ..
i would make the suggestion that you remove that latest post untill mb has a chance to respond then post both .
I chose to let it remain since it was up for most of a day before I found it. It was viewed several times and if it "just disappeared" that would raise a lot of questions as well (and look shady).
On top of that, I have some information that the topic is being monitored by other parties that may have use for it.
MB is aware of the post and has not yet decided whether they wish to reply.
Anyone see "law suite" coming?
The numbnuts who started the original thread may be entitled to form his own opinion, but he's not entitle to form his own "facts" in a flimsy attempt to support his errant opinion.
He's been proven unequivocally wrong so many times in that entire debacle that quite honestly, I can't believe he is still a member in good standing.
His continued membership and contributions, flagrantly false, isn't doing any of your otherwise excellent membership any favors.
IN other words, if he's going to slander a company whose reputation has largely been above reproach, it's the moderators' job to have the numbnuts either "put up or shut up or get gone."
He stated he was going to have all this BS testing done, and so far, not a peep.
:coffee:
Well, he's "entitled" to frame his own "facts" the same as every other guy that expounds on the virtue of .45 ACP over 9mm...... Or....maybe the guys who read you can't shoot 70+gr bullets out of a 1:9 twist .223...... It DEPENDS.
There are some bullets that do not pass QA/QC and just plain fail. You have the right to post that. At a certain point you need to "pony up" and provide some eveidence. The OP did not....it does not, however, mean we delete ALL posts that fail a litmus test.
"Moderation" does not mean to seek the truth. It means to make sure things flow smoothly so YOU can seek the truth.
