I want posters on here to know that they can post the results of their successful hunts, including the details on the bullets they used and the performance of those bullets without getting a ration on you-know-what for their efforts.

It's useful and good information, thanks ribka.

I'm confused, did you expect only like minded guys who agree with him to respond?



Yes, you are confused. The thread is not about what you personally would or would not do, it's about ribka's results.

Which were very good by the way, and nothing you've said changes that.

If you want to express your opinions about what you would or would not do, it's probably best to start your own thread. Or at least try to avoid putting your own spin on his and implying that he said things he didn't.



A wise man is frequently humbled.
