Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunting Optics Dear Leupold

rest assured, most any thread with "leupold" in the title gets a lot of attention

no one,

You flatter yourself in more ways than one...............

Funny thing, when I got on-line I thought, "how can I entertain John this evening"?

Throwing the limelight on me won't work Stick, your mouth wrote the cheque.....so cash it or back down.

John;

Simple.

Each person that wants to "play" takes a rifle of theirs, and ammo for it, boxes up that stuff and ships it to the neutral 3rd party evaluator.

The 3rd party has to be known to know how to shoot well, unbiased as to the goods in question, and a good evaluator of firearms/glass, and acceptable to all "players". Oh, and of course, agrees to do the evaluations.

That/those evaluator(s) shoot the rifles in field conditions, at known and unknown distances, as well as bench testing them. They do the evals, post up their thoughts/findings, along with pics/video, and send the rifles back to the owners.

Pretty simple, and as even across the board for the rifle/optics/system part of the comparison as possible.

As stated, two or three come to mind immediately.

I am at a loss as to why you don�t just agree and kick my dumb ass all over the range??

Whatever could be stopping you but fear and common sense??

Come on Little fish let�s quit talking and start shooting the steel.

half pint,

What you may have or not isnt the question on hand, but I appreciate your need to change the subject.

Either agree to back up your words or crawl away. Pretty simple.

And of course go [bleep] yourself.

You know what would be REALLY funny?

She sends one of her rifles and I'll send one of mine,both to an independant party to disassemble,index/measure and critique.

Cain't get no fairer than that and as a punchline we'll talk prices after the laughs.

Laffin'!..................

No...he didn't come up with the idea, VA did, and Stick hasn't committed one way or another.

Now that's a capital idea!

Damn, it's a wonder someone didn't think of it before.....

That great big cheque is still sitting there Stick.

What are you going to do with it?

I am in on this deal. Are we comparing out of the box turn key rifles or personal rifles??

Screw the third party "evaluation" foolishness...all you've done there is add yet another opinion...of which we already have plenty from where I'm standing.

Let the boys settle at a range themselves with whatever they believe to be the most superior firearm.

Wouldn't that speak volumes about what these respective gentlemen "know"?

As poor as I might be, count me in for $20 to see this pizzing match.

Plagiarizing Hollywierd??

Guys,

He does not want any of what I would bring so give him a little slack.

For the 3rd party, they'll all be "turn key systems".

You send one of your GB rifle/optics/load systems, and the other "players" send one of their rifle/optics/load systems.

The 3rd party doesn't know anything about the rifle/optics/loads prior to receiving the rifle, as they've never handled said system before, and they simply eval what the system is like for them.

Does Little Fish sell a turn key system??

I'd put Sticks 7-08 Ti over Greybulls "turn key" rifle.

Mag, Matt started on John, Stick sank the boot in when he thought he was down, and now that John has decided to not take their crap the fight has gone out of them.

Stick, if you cannot cash the cheque....don't write it.
