Dunno what other folk consider most important about writers, but for me and mine, the most important is real information.
Seyfried harped away on some stuff that was either really dated or ridiculous, the .458 thing, boat tail bullets, and the pre 64 praise all were a little over the top.
That said, Seyfried was one of my most favourite writers for the information he passed on to ignoramouses like me.
Ross impressed me with his sense of ethics regarding the hunt, his love of wildlife kept him from makin statements that brought others down into the pits. Eg; one writer has said that elk are stupid. Well, I'd like to show Mr. stupid elk our ungulates, cuz they are anything but stupid.
Every time Ross decided to really write, it was like I was in school, but better.
I wish that all the towering egos would cast an eye down here to the insignificant readers. We don't need advertising sycophants, we don't need propoganda. We just need good solid information.
Glad we still get Pearce, Bernsness-and sometimes Venturino.
