Question ain't about shooting - it's about quality of the product.
Honestly, the question is about HOW he is handling questions about the product.
No one can ruin sales faster than the sales staff themselves.
Agreed.
That is the only problem I can see with this situation-not his rifles, or whether or not they are worth the $$$$.
Simply don't agree with such sales 'tactics'.
I have had words with a fella on the backpack hunting forum over his methods of selling a certain brand of sleeping bag, or should I say, of dealing with any questions of a critical nature-similar to this here deal with Burn's rifles, IMO.

I wonder what happens when you run out of the 100 rounds of the secret ammo?

Yea, I guess views mean profit, or maybe the chance that a sucker may bite. Maybe

I asked Stick once - IIRC they figure it died of natural causes.

Sounds a bit like Piglosi and her ilk... you know, "We gotta pass it to find out what's in it". Same with Burns? Gotta buy it, to find out the list of components. And even then it's alluded that the info. may not be forth coming...

I make some damn good rifles and scopes and the silent majority here is beginning to take notice.
Since I've not commented on this thread or any other about Greybull, I guess I'm one of the silent majority. What I've noticed is that John Burns acts like a dick, speaks like a dick, and therfore must be a dick.
John,
while you may be able to bullsh1t the fans, you can't bulsh1t the players.
