It's no secret that I have absolutely no interest in the wares you're peddling, nor do I personally see the "value" for the money being charged.
That's my opinion, and quite honestly, irrelevant as the market will dictate what you can charge for your product. I have absolutely no issue nor begrudge you that, as it's the American Way.
Where I find exception, and believe the root for much of the dissent, is you failing to compare apples to apples.
It would seem to me, if you truly wanted to pit your product against the competition, it would be an honest evaluation of the product itself.
As has been previously mentioned, a neutral third party agreed upon by all directly involved could evaluate the equipment side by side in an unbiased, controlled test.
Your challenge the way I read it, boils down to simply pitting your shooting skills against another....
I thought it was suppose to be about your product (standing on it's own merit) and not your ego??
Burns New to this thread so thought I better check out these rifles. Looked on the website but didn't get a lot of info for the rifle. Who makes the barrles for you? How about the stocks? The website says you designed the stock, but who makes it? Trigger? Why remington actions? Nothing against remington, as I have several made on 700s and M7s, but would have thought there were better actions to start with for this type rifle.

Keep hunting son, the answers come to those that really want them.

I have all the sources. They can't stop the signal.
If you hunted with me, you'd see more blacktails in one day than you've seen in your whole life. But like you said, you ain't invited..
I know I'm not. You are livin' large up there and good for you. A lot of what we've bonked heads on has been when you falsely extrapolate from your insanely game-rich enviro to other locales... but you are young, and not a bad dude, so like it or not I give you a pass <grin>.
Calvin Wins! He took you up on your challenge and you failed to accept.
Dude, he asked him to go on a 3hr hiking trip together. I wouldn't accept that either, sounds gay. [/quote]
I suppose, if that's the way your mind leans.
With a guy like Calvin, sounds like a hard-azz adventure to me. I'd be honored to hit the mountains with a lot of guys here even if they could outshoot me.

Now why in hell would you address a man, who is one of the first 300 original members of this site as "son?" He asked pertinent questions and expected honest answers.

In all fairness, I'll see more bucks in one day than many locals will see in many seasons. But I put in the effort.

First off I'm not your son. Second, I went to what I assume is your website to check out the product you make. I wouldn't give a smith $500 without knowing the components, much less $6000. Are you offended that I want to know these things?
I don't have a dog in this fight, just trying to get some info. I can see now why this has turned into such a pissing match.
I ain't proud. I'm sure there are more than a few that can take me with a rifle and/or a handgun.
I hold my own when it counts.
