I think Big Stick is the Donald Trump of 24HCF: egotistical and obnoxious, but directionally correct.
At one time he was "NOBODY" at SH.
At one time I posted at AR. Those guys want scope bases soldered on thier Mausers.
At SH those guys want their scope bases epoxied on their round bottomed receivers.
At 24HCF there are so many posters and types of posters, I don't see a scope base consensus.
There was once a video by NOBODY that compared lapping rings to lap dancing:)
