He can't stand the ridicule..... You'll note that he's not in the picture. It's very hard to meter light correctly off the rainbow colored ascot. 
If something on the internet makes you angry the odds are you're being manipulated

I inherited an old Ruger 77 .270W from my elderly cousin 3 years ago along with at least 1500 Winchester Power Point 150 grain .277 bullets. I worked up an accurate load with 57 grains of IMR 7828. This rifle is slow. The MV of this load is about 2750fps. Since it wears our best low light scope it gets used for all our late evening deer hunting and night time hog shooting. This load has proven to be exceptionally deadly on deer and Russian boar hybrid wild hogs. I am talking up to 4-500 pounds. If it will reliably kill these hogs it will do the same on elk. A wild boar wears a shield of very thick gristle on his front end. With this rifle, this speed, and this bullet things work out real well out to 200+ yards.

I find digital cameras do a much better job of color correction and metering when there's a variety of color, particularly yellows and greens, in the frame.

A good principle to guide me through life: “This is all I have come to expect, standard lackluster performance. Trust nothing, believe no one and realize it will only get worse…”
