Rabid,
<br>
<br>It's even late up here,on the left coast. My bedtime too.
<br>
<br>I can't wait for tomorrow's compelling drama,in Robert's special little world,I'm thinkin' he calls it "The King and I". He coulda played BOTH parts,in Dumb and Dumber...............

Wow Stick, and this thread has nothing to do with Rem 700's (aka "Sucks")LOL!
<br>
<br>As a small aside to this thread, I will relate that I posted a few simple questions regarding the 250 Savage on this, our happy campfire. Our good buddy Robert saw fit to respond by first correcting my English usage. He's obviously a superior being and I should feel grateful he's here. However, in my corner of the world if you corrected a man's English in such a condescending fashion your head would swap places with your feet. Robert also saw fit to totally disregard my original question by posting a response with information that wasn't asked for and of no use. Please feel free to see said 250 Savage thread on "Rifles."
<br>
<br>Hmm... should I post an obligatory "grin" after that... naw! Is "naw" coorect? Robert, please, help me out! Is there a way you could correct all my mistakes with red text... pleeeaaase! I've been wringing my hands over my horrible punctuation lately... I won't even mention my spelling and poor choice of nouns...
<br>
<br>Rick, I'll take a shot of what you're serving now...
<br>
<br>Brad

Then who're you, BS? Forrest Gump?
<br>
<br>

Brad:
<br>
<br>I'm glad someone's gonna help me with this, 'cuz I plumb ran out of aspirin last week.
<br>
<br>Here's a double, and he'p yerself from here until she runs dry.

<br>Actually, you posted some disparaging remarks in regards to loading manuals and their coverage of the .250-3000 Savage. I offered up a good load, but pointed out that you wouldn't like it because it'd been developed with a load manual.
<br>
<br>And the moronathon rolls on.
<br>

Robert,
<br>
<br>You keep ranting that the 6.5-284 cases available from Lapua, Norma and Hornady were not designed with the idea of using them to form other cases. Many of us have called you on this, and yet you still maintain that this is so. WHERE IS YOUR PROOF ? I asked for internal memoranda from any of the companies, or an article quoting company spokesmen or executives. You could also provide proof of some warning on the boxes of 6.5-284 cases. None of this exists however, because the good folks at Lapua, Hornady and Norma KNOW that their cases will be used for regular old .284, .25-284 and 6-284 cartridges. They are in the case manufacturing business, they really don't give a hoot what cartridge we will eventually use them for.
<br>
<br>Lighten up, wise up, grow up.
<br>Scott

Warm sensation now in throat... yep, it's good!

<br>My GOD!!! The stupidity never ends!!! Go back and read one of my more recent posts.
<br>
<br>And the moronathon rolls on.
<br>
<br>

Robert,
<br>
<br>I bet you don't wipe your azz with toilet tissue either,because the packaging does not SPECIFICALLY denote that use?
<br>
<br>You keep gettin' funnier!....................

You're taking things out of context and still missing my original point, BS.
<br>
<br>

Brad:
<br>
<br>Ahhhh, only the best for us, mate. Single Malt, 18 years, can you taste the peat???
<br>
<br>How about a Havana? I got Monte's?
<br>
<br>Rick

This thread is getting funny in a sad sort of way....
<br>
<br>I think at some point you have to just shake your head and call it a lost cause. I'm gonna call it a night and go build custom rifles in my head till I fall asleep.

Hey Rick, that doesn't sound half bad. Always been a Bourbon drinker but I'm willing try something new. Pass it over hear if you don't mind.

You mean you purchase TP,that SPECIFICALLY is labeled,"this product is expressly designed for crap removal,from one's hiney"? That exact brand and packaging,is unbeknownst to me.
<br>
<br>Or that when you repeatedly mention male sexuality SPECIFICALLY,that the likely conclusion,is that it is in fact your penchant?
<br>
<br>Besides being a neophyte,your sorta scary too.................

Rick and Brad,
<br>When you are done with that one, here's a jolt of 25 yo Macallan. Good single malt, cheap cigars......hmmm. Cheers.

Good night Boys. Don't drink it all,up I'm hopin' there will be call to swill more at a later date..................

carbonman;
<br>
<br>We were just warming up with this stuff. Pass the 25 yo Macallan, please.
<br>
<br>Cheap cigars? Montecristo #2's??? What, we gotta have Trinidad's to hang out with you?
<br>
<br>LSU Fan, pull up a log. Here's a glass, bottle, cigarbox, and cutter. carbonman can help you with the rest.
<br>
<br>I'm going back to my singin'
<br>
<br>Rick
<br>
<br>

No buddy, I have cheap cigars. Yours will barter well for a taste of the Mac.

Cutter? Thought you were supposed to bite it off. Guess that's just the redneck coming out in me. Save some for tommorow night guys.

carbonman:
<br>
<br>Done!
<br>
<br>I can only smoke one at a time anyway.
<br>
<br>Got any 25 yo Glenfiddich? Oh, now that's the stuff.
<br>
<br>Rick
