Likely the same bunch of cunnys that moan in the Fire's Optics forum.

Thats ok with me.

I've seen a Model 7 in .243 Win w/ 6.5-20x 50mm AOs on it in Burris Extreme Tacticool rings that I'm sure they'd fully approve of. It isn't a tacticool scope, but just the sort of over-scoping that makes those types so predictable.

There is a big difference between looking like you can shoot something at distance and actually doing it...

I grew up with Shawn Ferris and know his little brother Chris. Their dad started that business and they took it another level. They are good folks and run a honest business...

Good business to be sure... I'm going to be placing an order w/ them later this month and have bought stuff there before... but I'm sure people know better than to assume that Rickbin is a douche just because he lets Steelhead stay around ( wink ) and I hope we here at the 'fire apply the same common sense here...

Is this the SWFA that used to sell reloading equipment through a catalog and was out of Oklahoma or thereabouts?

If so, I used to do a lot of business with them when they were still shipping powder and primers.

Yep, it's a good shop. I would give them more business if they weren't in Texas.

Exactly, add that 8% or whatever for state sales tax and they get as high as anywhere else.
