Coldbore,
Your "Artful Dodger" book autograph request is brilliant. ROFLMAO here. Not nearly as funny as you punting.................

I find that usually the BEST of the BEST are actually pretty Modest.
I love to hear folks share their experience and expertise, if they manage to do so in the spirit of the forum instead of it just being a vehicle to brag a lot..
The "Experienced" impress others by what they pass on to others.. not taunt everyone with " I'm WAY BETTER than any of you guys will ever be.."
And owning a bunch of spendy trendy rigs, doesn't make one an expert...
If Big STICK is as good as he claims.. then more power to him, and my hat's off to him in respect..
And I am interest in any words he'd have to say to the group..
but it boils down to how he says them...
showing pictures of a lot of guns or claiming to have burnt 150 or 1500 pounds of one type of powder, doesn't spell experience..
If someone can shoot 1 inch groups at 500 yds, well I have to see it... or hear it from a neutral party observing it..
heck with no credible witnesses, we all can shoot one inch groups at 500 yds... have a few more beers, and they can shoot 1/2 groups at a 1000...
kind of reminds me of watching three guys try to give advise on women to one of their young friends who was having problems with his girlfriend... I really had to laugh when one guy stood up and bragged the other guys knew nothing about women.. this guy knew it all about women.. he'd been married three times!
it passed threw my mind: You guys don't know a thing about driving cars... I have totaled THREE CARS..I can tell you all you want to know about driving cars!!!...
Kinda reminds me of Big Stick's Modesty here... One inch 3 shot groups are very doable. I do not know how often stick can bunch em up that tight. I have shot and seen others shoot numerous 600 yard 5 shot groups in the .900 ish ctc groups shooting f class. Only problem is we are not shooting for groups, just score. You just put the pasters closer together and repair the spotter more often. I hate it when they bust the spindles that hold the spotters. Not only does it rip a huge hole in the target but it can get dangerous.....always wear you eye protection in the pits. The best 600 yard 3 shot group I ever saw was .470 ish ctc, but it was shot by a guy who is very accomplished. My best 3 shot 600 yard group measured very near to .78. Strangely my smallest 800 yard 3 shot group measure very close to my smallest 600 yard group, but it was just an anomaly. It is a fair correlation,to denote that great wares,are reliably capable of great results. They only folks who think shooting is "hard",is folks that don't shoot. Typical outing.................. ![[Linked Image]](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v136/BigStick/Stuff/Rifle%20Stuff/StandardFare.jpg)

Though in fairness,I don't suffer too many empty slots in the larder..................

You are a victim of both your "intellect" and "experience" and only you,can prevent you...from saying something stupid.

Don't mean to change the subject, I sighted in my .223 SPS Tactical today with the 45 grain blue XLT backed by H-322.
I'm getting 3,340 fps out of the 20" barrel and I only had time to shoot a couple of groups. It averaged .5" at 100 yds.
Went hunting this evening and shot a fat little doe in the upper brisket at 75 yards.
I've got her hanging tonight and will cut her up in the morning, hoping I can find the bullet.....

Hey Seafire that really works. Yeah real well.. on every one of his posts, all I see is: You are ignoring this pompous selfcentered butthead user.What a refreshing concept... Besides, Big Stick doesn't need any of us... he is the biggest Rambo on the internet... he's the world's greatest.. and keeps reminding us all of that, in ALL of his posts... I meet enough knowITalls locally, I don't need to know of another one from Alaska of all places... I bet he constantly wonders how we all gone along in life without him...

Having access to a 500 yard range myself, I find some of these "one inch" groups at 500 yards shear folly.

You are stuck with your abilities,equipment and "experience"...none of which is a balmy forecast.
Hoping you are dumb enough to expound.................

It's morning in Alaska; time for another 16 hours of continuous bombast, bullying and BS.
Of all the great things about this board, IGNORE is among the very finest.

I don't see how you can take offense at what BS (we know what that is)says. More than half of it is in some sort of home made jargon that I can't understand. Of course, this means I'm stupid rather than he can't speak english. 
Aim for the exit hole.
