Who's ****ting on anything? I wanted to know what the heck goes on at this thing. Nothing else.

By the way Bergerboy, I am not sure if you ever met L-C, I know for a fact that you have never met me. L-C punching my teeth out is as likely as humans building a colony on the sun tomorrow.

L-C, I meant what I said about your mother I really liked her. I lost mine last year of cancer too and I meant no disrespect to you by giving you my condolences, I was being sincere.

Anyways enough of this BS.

You are all over the map man...you mock the fact I shot a duck with my bow for some reason then in the same breath feel compelled to mention my dead Mother?.....social skills are not your forte....

Stay out of my corner and I'll stay out of yours...

My interpretation of that post apparently was the same as your first impression. I was disgusted to see the remark followed by a smilie. To even bring the loss of a parent into this nonsense was way out of line, and shows a total lack of class by the individual that made the post.

I've got the addiction, I probably spend more on reloading components than a crack head spends on crack!

I like to pretend to be a long range shooter, but I still got some work.

Making fun of a guy by comparing him to people with Down syndrome is also classless.

This thread is a disgrace. It should be closed.

Let's hope, for the sake of the attending marksmen, that the Drayton rodeo is by formal invitation only - with the invitations to be extended by Dick.

From the reports posted on AO I know the rodeo to be a fun, friendly and classy competition.

The Drayton rifle Rodeo is a open shoot, but there s limited space from what I remember, and think Dick has a cut off for the number of enteres- I THINK.
Maybe not however.

Thank you L-C. You certainly did misunderstand my intent, because my words and intent were and are pure and unencumbered by falsehoods and only based on facts.

Best of luck to you afield my friend!

I believe it's limited to about 40, always a few no shows. I'm hoping to make it this year and give Roger a run for last place.

Why would one not consider a slightly higher hold over, and maybe at longer range a turret adjustment. Are folks that look for a flatter shooting caliber expecting it to do their homework for them in terms of a couple of inches which in terms of kill zone would make little to no difference at all. Flat shooting seems to be an overused and misunderstood phrase. Define flat shooting.
With what you have said and what you expected are you still entertained by what has been posted?

Again I am challenged?

I hope your health issue improve.

Please do not attack me .

Years ago when I was still playing silhouette I would have given my left .... to shoot half as good as you Edmhunter!!

I played this game with the North American title holder (Ralph can't remember all the awards he won). I am pretty sure he would have given you his right ... to shoot as good as you...then you would have really had a pair..lol

I don't call BS to often on this forum but I am calling you BS.....period!

Huskamaw and Browning...what a laugh. (You sound just like that Idiot on gear hunters who claims if you put a Huskamaw on your rifle your good to 1000yds. just by installing the scope, and sighting in at 100yds. of course.)
(WAIT maybe your one in the same )

Never been to the rifle rodeo, but you would fit in just fine with my "plywood challenge". A thread that I started on here several years ago, weeded out a bunch of BS, at that time as well....Just sayin'

And I wont make a shot on an animal that I cant make 10 out of 10 times on paper. Beyond that without a nice little bullseye to focus on pretty much everyone I've ever met shoots worse, which IMO needs to be factored in. Try shooting a group on a piece of paper with no markings and then tell me you shoot better with an animal in front of you. The only thing shooting at a live animal ever does is make you forget to flinch, and in your case I'm almost positive you are impervious to such ailments that us mere mortals deal with.

Rising up, back on the street
Did my time, took my chances
Went the distance, now I'm back on my feet
Just a man and his will to survive

So many times it happens too fast
You trade your passion for glory
Don't lose your grip on the dreams of the past
You must fight just to keep them alive

It's the eye of the tiger
It's the thrill of the fight
Rising up to the challenge of our rival
And the last known survivor
Stalks his prey in the night
And he's watching us all with the eye of the tiger

Face to face, out in the heat
Hanging tough, staying hungry
They stack the odds still we take to the street
For the kill with the skill to survive

It's the eye of the tiger
It's the thrill of the fight
Rising up to the challenge of our rival
And the last known survivor
Stalks his prey in the night
And he's watching us all with the eye of the tiger

Rising up, straight to the top
Had the guts, got the glory
Went the distance, now I'm not gonna stop
Just a man and his will to survive

It's the eye of the tiger
It's the thrill of the fight
Rising up to the challenge of our rival
And the last known survivor
Stalks his prey in the night
And he's watching us all with the eye of the tiger

The eye of the tiger
The eye of the tiger
The eye of the tiger
The eye of the tiger
