Thread: Amazed

Good on ya mate. You ever stop to think that maybe its fellas like yourself that make this a great place to stop and lurk?
I have met all sorts in this game and some that are just mind blowing.

Was at a local yrs ago and noticed a good hunting mate in an animated conversation with a fella at the bar. They were laughing and smiling and waving their arms around.
My mate to this day is a shit stirrer of epic proportions and as I arrived to the bar I worked out they were talking hunting and guns.
I was about to turn around and make like I had not seen them, as all I was really interested in, at 22 yrs of age was having somewhere to place the gun that was part of my person.

Mate seen me and waved me over to back up one of his many stories. It was a coversation that I call 2 shits. You know? No matter what you have done the person you are talking too did it twice as good. Ya know if you said you had a shit, they would proudly announce they had 2.

Anyway they were talking shooting prowess and this fella who was a bit older than us was that awesome of a hunter he could stalk up and smack a deer on the ass before he shot it.
He also could snot animals at will from unsupported positions at vast distances.

My mate wanting only to have a bit of fun with the bloke told him a story about he and I and how at the time I had a .243 (I had no idea obviously) and a .308 and that we went for a shot this morning and I accidently loaded a .243 round in my .308 and away we went. We soon came on too an animal and I took the shot. My mate heard the projectile rattle down the barrel but was amazed to see the animal tip over with a hit right in the eye!
Old 2 shits took a swill from his 12 and wiped his mouth, nodded and then claimed he did the exact same thing twice one day before he noticed he had the wrong ammo!!
