Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Ask The Gunwriters Ruger Confounds Logic Sometimes

Shouldn't we take this to the Optics forum if we are gonna have a nonsensical pizzing match like this?

Ingwe,

Do you still have that 9 twist Ruger African in .223?



Travis

YEP. I agree.....Now what does nonsensical mean...

Yes. Do you need one?

Backpedaling Bob???

I don't really know. Im gonna gave to google it�.I was just trying to dazzle..

African rockchucks can be dangerous little phuggers...Just sayin..

It has the right kind of sights for closing with wounded dangerous chucks in the thick stuff�.

BobinNH adds a lot to the forum- He is knowlegeable, articulate and is capable of reasoned discussion- An attribute in short supply here

+1 Fred.

Yes. But I prefer to buy things when people are desperate.



Travis

Ruger no longer lists that African in .223 People will be desperate to buyit!

I am only desperate to retire, get some time off, come up there, shoot some gophs, buy you a beer, and let you buy me that pizza you're always talking about.

The door is always open, friendo. Bring the African with you. I doubt I could resist in a FTF.

I love it when the flesh is weak�.

Here's my Top 10 List of things I love about the Campfire:

1) When somebody posts, "I prefer the XYZ," and that's all. No reasons, experiences, etc.

2) "I prefer the XYZ, so sold my ABC." Again, no reason given--and no glimmer that for somebody else's purposes the ABC might work better.

3) "You idiots are FOS and I know everything, idiots." This often appears most frequently around cocktail hour, though apparently cocktail hour not only varies according to time zone, but individual interpretations of when it should begin. A dependable variation is, "My way is not just the best way but the only way, idiots."

4) "Price check on a minty pre-'64 whatever."

5) "WTF did anybody manufacture THAT for? Idiots."

6) "I've used the same rifle and load since 1879 and it hasn't failed to kill a deer yet, so WTF do you need a [magnum, 3-9x, Barnes TSX, synthetic stock] for?"

7) "I haven't used anything but XYZ bullets since they came out and anybody that doesn't is an idiot."

8) "Anybody who uses anything less than a ABC scope on an expensive hunt is an idiot."

9) "Anybody who doesn't strictly hunt DIY on public land is an idiot."

10) "GFY"

Glad I got what I got when the gettin was good. Absolutely no desire to own a Savage or a Savage look alike Ruger or Marlin...

If the disposable rifles are the thing to own now, how about topping them off with the throw away Chinese scopes that match?

NC Star, Barska, Simmons,

Was the Weaver 4X mentioned earlier not a Chinese made scope?

Think I'd rather shop the used rack if the wolf was at the door than buy one of the new cheapies.

JB: My favorite is " Which should I buy, a Tikka or a Winchester?" and the first six replies are:

Buy a Ruger/Savage/Remington/whatever brand the OP didn't mention�.

BobinNH is welcome at my fire anytime and he can bring a 7mm Mashburn, but not a .270.

Also "What do you suggest? I've already made up my mind, and won't listen to advice, but will ask anyway."

As well as "I'm thinking of buying this rifle, is it any good? I secretly alright bought it, but want to justify my purchase".

Or my other favorite, invariably posted by somebody with a less than 10 post count..

" Where is YOUR favorite place to hunt Muleys/Elk/etc.."
