Lil Fish you truly are the gift that keeps on giving.

Your fanboys have to looking at your choice of shooting iron and just start crying.

A 12lb sniperwannabe rig with a 10x optic shooting HPBT bullets. Why not a Rem Ti in 223AI with the old trusty straight 6X and AMAXs?

I wonder when the fanboys will start to ask �Hey, how many animals has Lil Fish actually taken at long range or is he just running his mouth with absolutely no actual field experience?�

I already know the answer. laugh laugh

VAnimrod,

Would an unbiased review of my system by a campfire member make you happy?

That might have already happened. smile

I won�t drag him into my little pizzing match here but it won�t be too hard to find the thread.

That sounds like a winner. You ever fast twisted and throated a 308 real long to shoot the 208s while still having some case capacity? I was pretty amazed how fast a 308 will push em when you throat em thusly. No real world application but I have a windy day FTR f-class rifle that will send em pretty well. I can't post numbers or the pressure police will bust me. It is just a way to cheat without cheating, but is pretty fun to play with. I like tinkering with em a bit.

John, I am sure your rifle is good, probably as good as most out there. And I am pretty sure your system works great, with limitations. I just cannot fathom the cost, but am sure there are guys out there happy and satisfied shooting them. I doubt that anyone is going to be satisfied with an independant review, unless that review can show about 2 grand worth of "better than the next guys." I do not have a thing against capitalism, you have picked your target market and I hope it works out for ya. But as someone stated," those that know, know better."

Far from "unbiased", when you were there coaching and as he admits, he had no point of reference.

You have a qualified shooter, with credentials and experience, with an offer on the table to run yours and anyone else's by himself and with other qualified shooters doing the same... no influence from the owner/maker.

THAT, is an unbiased review.

What say you to that offer?

BTW - good to see you "not drag" someone into this, by directly linking their comments to this.

As for the PM you sent last night, yeah, I was easily wrong then and don't mind admitting it.

You're continuing to prove a ton of points, though not exactly the ones that you think you're proving.

Oh come on! Everyone knows that missing an egg by an inch or so, at 515yrds from a pack rest, in the wind.... is complete "faildozer"

Hey Burns,
I posed this question awhile back in the custom rifles forum, but must have missed it.
If you rifles/set-ups are the t!ts as they stand now, best there is as you have said... Then why are you having McMillan get set up to start molding you stocks?
Just a question.




Again since John Burns seems to keep missing this when I ask.
Simple question right?




And again since you still somehow keep missing my question.
I think is the 4th or 5th time I have asked you this.
It wouldn't be because you compromised using a lesser component when initially setting up to "build" your rifles would it?...
I mean after all they the best out there, top of the heap, best schitt running as you have said right?

I'm more than a bunch gifted in many areas and that's hardly secreted.

Most my stuff is non-SAAMI chambered and most don't have those dies setting atop their shelves and I figure if one is weighing all attributes and logistics/locale precludes my sending ammo along,that the lowly 308Win is a fair shake...even though I hate 'em. I never was into Safe Queens,so have zero qualm sourcing componetry of repute,that'll take abuse happily. I've long weighed zero retention and an innate ability to fend inclement weather,as more than a whole bunch important. I savvy that them things is Greek to you.

It is well beyond obvious,that you are a whole bunch more than a whole lot stupid,but I find it curious someone so "in the know" as you and who uses 700 receivers herself,isn't of the 1st Grade tutelage to know that Big Green never pumped .378" Ti's...though I'd assuredly have some,if they did. It'd wear a 6x42 and certainly squirt 75A-Max to boot.

In fairness...I can pull sumptin' outta the larder,to make any weight................

I am sure beginning to wonder about the guy.
I can't see how such antics help sell, let alone prove the 'superiority' of his wares?

Yea but that 7/08 wont work in FTR neither will the 223AI only straight 308 or 223 mad I have been considering a 7/08 for f-class open but can find no advantage over the 6x47 or .284 other than my affinity. I peddled my last 7/08 off but am going to get in the shop and crank a lite weight version very soon.

Burns should just go down to RiflesOnly and shoot some longrange with Frankie and the boys. All bullshit jacking aside its obvious the he can shoot decent enough but his concoction of a �rifle� would be lagging like a one legged man at an ass kicking contest by the end of day 1.

I think he abandoned LRH with less abuse. His sticktuitiveness here has impressed me, although maybe he should have cut his losses earlier. I mean what does he have to win versus what does he have to lose even if he gets what he wants, which I assume is a shooting match with big Stick.

I'd be the last guy to slight a 3" COAL 284Win tossing 162's...............
