Actually it is quite easy to tell when someone shoots a 7x57. There's always something dead laying nearby. No yarns, confusion, disappointment, nothing like that. Just dead critters. They have even been known to just drop dead at the sight of that cartridge on the African plains. Nothing like that happens with the .270. I know this because neighbors actually admit in public that they own such things. It seems to me a lot like going grocery shopping with a sex toy hanging around your neck. Wearing a thong.

Now in seriousness, i never knew that site existed, however i have to wonder about it. If there are enough "gay hunters". To warrant a forum, i would venture maybe more than a few of them think alot like some of us as far ad our love for hunting and guns, and the current political schit storm, and maybe we should strive to be a bit more accepting.

That way you're neither gay or Euro-trash. It's a win/win. "An archer sees how far he can be from a target and still hit it, a bowhunter sees how close he can get before he shoots."

Actually the Zg47 is a very accurate rifle and my brother Martin wouldn't part with it...I sold it to him cheap so that he would have good gear to shoot with. I gave him a couple of scopes and sent him on his way with a 1958 Brno model 5 as well.

When she saw it, she said, "That's mine." Fine with me. Now I need to buy her a Bombay Bowler to keep the sun off her face.

Chuckle, not sure your target but thought I'd share "pith" is correct, as in a plant fiber that the helmets are/were made from originally and covered with cloth, hence pith helmets.

I'd ask to use that one rifle you occasionally show the picture of - you know, the one covered in mold. You know, when I was growing up here in Florida, coyotes were something that was found only in the west. 40 years later, they're all over the place here as well. I don't know how many we've taken off our lease, but it's quite a few. We see 'em, we shoot 'em...with whatever we happen to have in hand.
