They'd have us believe that without it , we may as well not bother hunting.
'Course that's typical.


So, what's wrong with that?
I built a 30-284, hunted with a Roberts AI, I even attempted to develop a short action magnum during the 80's and Jamison beat me too it so I bought and kilt a bull moose with a 300WSM. I could continue but the point is I like things a little different. I like to cut my own trail. I do run into a problem occasionly. Somebody has already walked on the same ground but I go there anyway. The 6.5 Creedmoor is proving to be a great gun filling a certain nitch. Gun writers who see it as a legitimate tool have it right. Will it survive? Dunno, but I'd like one.

BE STRONG IN THE LORD, AND IN HIS MIGHTY POWER. ~ Ephesians 6:10

Socialism is a philosophy of failure,
the creed of ignorance,
and the gospel of envy,
its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery.
