    I was interested in Wingmans journey with the 6.5x47 Lapua. But all this BS about proper rifle hold, bi-pods bla bla bla has stuffed what otherwise would have been a good thread.

    Seriously underrated 6.5x47 Lapua

    I find that when I use a pull through it creates a lot less friction when I apply oil or some type of lube. Lubes is best.

    Those three pricks get down and dirty with each other’s barrels big time. Hoppes No 9 and they scissor away.

    This video will explain why, for anatomical reasons, you guys will talk a little shit on the forum, you will talk shit behind my back, but you will never say of this shit to my face.

    I'm away for a few months and this place becomes A high school ! Then every melodramatic prick ending his posts with "I'm out" as if anyone cares. Where were you in?

    What a bunch of princesses. Its not just how you like it so time for a dummy spit. I guess you guys see two conversations happening in one thread and you get all confused and angry. Too hard to tell the different topics apart. I understand.

    I wonder how many guys are lurking instead of posting because of the plague of territorial half men on here?

    Honestly @Tussock I actually believe you have valid well informed opinions on hunting related techniques and quipment most of the time from what I have read. Let's get this straight, I don't know ya from a bar of soap but your the one who seems like a moaning little drama queen in this thread man, take a joke, take a hint and stop taking this shit so serious.

    If your whole keyboard warrior facade is just a joke, well than its on me..

    As for the cartridge in question, what a little rocket ship! Is anyone offering a factory rifle in that chambering?

    Yip old tussock back at his old tricks........you love to wind everyone up then try and reverse the negative feedback. If only you had some post history to quote.....oh funny how your entire history here was wiped. Shaping up for the same treatment from what I see.

    I hear ya, and I don't. I did delete my post history, that is correct. Three times now in total. About 20,000 posts over three forums. My content, not the forums as it turned out. See the color of my name? It is green, not blue. I was a terrible "caretaker" just like I was a shit mod on FnH.

    I will yield the point about thread hijacks. I have been bitching about this since about 2005, because the most fun we ever had with the widest range of people getting along, and the best atmosphere, was back when we were posting virtually everything in the same place. The more guys we got who could not cope with this, the more tedious things got. No going back I guess. This forum was originally designed to replicate that and again it was super popular and again, a bunch of guys who can't cope with no rules turned up (because it was comfy) to tell us what we were doing was wrong. Like panel rust I guess. To avoid the hassle, I will just start more threads.

    This is not complicated. There are a bunch of guys here who will insult anyone who drifts away from their approved way of being. You either think and act like them, or you get insulted. You get this "But all this BS about proper rifle hold, bi-pods bla bla bla" or you get "To much follow through from a couple of pull throughs".

    A hell of a lot of guys will not post because they might cop this. The guys who are doing this are obviously big fish in whatever tiny pond they come from, that they think they are special and get to decide what is cool and what is not. Somehow they feel they can outright insult people with impunity. I agree with people ignoring this, it is just not my style. I'm not used to it frankly, this type of man literally crosses the street to avoid me in real life.

    Years ago a bunch of guys who like to publicly hated me on the forum all stayed at my house, invited by another member. They were all very pleasant and we got on fine, because in person all this evaporates because they are acting. 24/7. The big talk evaporates in person. I have never had any trouble fronting up in person and talking exactly as I do here. Like anywhere, I will insist if you are to be insulting people and trying to dominate them, you start with me. I find it more peaceful this way.

    Like anywhere, there are a bunch of people here I have the utmost respect for and who I would go on another expedition with without hesitation. Like anywhere, there is a ton of dead wood and useless flesh. This is why I like doing things that are hard. These fuckers will never turn up because there is no chance to try look cool by insulting people while doing nothing.

    So fair is fair, I will cut the thread hijacks out. The guys with the insults and snide comments, I will continue to point out they are up to FA.

    20,000 posts........ you don't have something better to do? don't know If I qualify as your "keyboard worrier" (spelling deliberate) type, cause I am guilty of hanging bait from time to time, but your post does make it sound that you believe you are an intimidating hard man that scares people across the road (your real name isn't Bad Bad Leroy Brown is it?) In real life, I can be a very difficult bastard, and I cross the road for no one, one or six, it just won't happen.

    You really can't take what gets put on forums to heart, we are all different and have differing perception about everything, it really does sound like, it is actually you with the biggest problem, or you like to wear your Klingon cloaking device and go fishing, here.

    Of course, my perception could be way off, it's a long way to see down from my own ivory castle you know.

    (Stamps foot!) I'M OUTA HERE!!!! (flounces out the door)

    This thread didn't need to be filled up with all this f...ing bullshit! Why didn't/don't you start your own thread on holding shit!
