Okay, let's see the flick knives! Maybe some of the board will render their expert opinions on which knife is best. European. Domestic. Type of steel. Spring mechanism. etc. I think George Chakiris' running shoes would be prone to slippage. Better with Nikes? Adidas?

That's because you refuse to shoot rodents below 60 degrees or above 75.You're a temperature weenie, just like H335.

Oh dear, I've really stepped in it now; guess I shouldn't have questioned somebody's hero. Some of you guys act like a pack of high school girls. Shrapnel, it doesn't really matter who these guys think you are, that statement you made was pretty dumb, and at the very least deceptive to the OP. I'm pretty sure you know as well as anyone here that light 223 varmint bullets don't do well at long distance, especially in the wind (they don't have that in Montana, do they?) and using a heavier target bullet with the right twist can be the difference between hitting the target and not. Maybe that's a "waste" in your world, but it sure isn't for a lot of people.

Yes, you stepped in it. You often do. And you hurt everyone's feelings.

I like to do my hunting BEFORE I pull the trigger! There is only one kind of dead, but there are many different kinds of wounded.

I shoot 77 TMK, 80.5gr Berger's or 75g eld-m out of my ar 15 for highpower matches. Performs very well for me out to 600yds. We are lucky we have a KD range with pits like at camp Perry for our matches. I use either varget or ar-comp
Then STFU. The rest of your statement is superflous bullshit with no real bearing on this discussion other than to massage your own ego. Suckin' on my titties like you wanted me.

Oh dear, I've really stepped in it now; guess I shouldn't have questioned somebody's hero. Some of you guys act like a pack of high school girls. I feel compelled now to put a dog in the fight.... Shrapnel is NOT my hero! I've only met him once! He has many faults! 1. He just confronted Mule deer, whom I have met twice, so hes twice as good a friend as Shrapnel.. 2. He shoots a lot of .222 Magnum yet refuses to upgrade to a .223AI 3.He sticks to his antiquated Temp sensitive H335 like its the Holy Grail...which EVERYONE knows its not.... 4.He kills more rabbits than me...which makes me jealous. 5. He refuses to even let me drive his GTO.. 6. After repeated nice requests he sold his Honda SL350 rather than gift it to me... I could go on and on....

Everyone has different reasons for the bullet they choose to use. If I am shooting prairie dogs I like light recoil and good expansion so I like light bullets. If I was on the 600 yd line at Camp Perry I want accuracy and wind bucking ability and I don't care how much they cost. If I was with grandchildren having fun and looking for cheap I would bring out 22 rimfire.

Varget would work in the .308 and the .223.
