That is what I do during all my spare time and I have more than proven myself to anyone who knows me. Those were my results and if I took my gun to the range again with those loads I am certain I can nearly duplicate them. But you can keep spouting off with your Fort Crack ego and discredit yourself that way and thats fine by me cause I really dont care what you have to say.

Yet you have no issues with trying to degrade an entire city or province.

I think that city and province do it to themselves and real albertans would more than agree.

You don't ATTEND a postal match, you participate in it.
And FWIW, I am not from the east coast, and never have been to Newfoundland, but you likely just offended a bunch on the board who are with your B.S.

Do you REALLY think that everybody that lives in Ft. McMurray is from somewhere else and only ruin things for "real Albertans"?
You really should pay attention to what you are saying , as you are not making any amount of sense....
Pretty much done here with this crap, you should maybe apologize to those Easterners that you have offended here, even if it was aimed at myself.
I really am sorry for being drawn into this crap shoot.

If you knew anything about anything, you'd know that it would be posted here in the near future. But as I'm a fortune teller as well, I see your future here as dark, dismall and short. Therefore, I'm sure that our esteemed members will shortly have you in their "ignore" list...

I am not from the East,and as an Albertan,that has worked and paid taxes here for 30 years,I find it embarrassing to see that someone who claims to be a "real Albertan" would post such rubbish.

He must be thinking about it,because it appears that someone has been doing some editing on his posts to remove some derogatory names.
I wonder if the moderators can see what was posted before his editing.

He is offline,but he cleaned up most of his posts first.He may have wanted to appear to be the tough guy,but going back and cleaning up his posts to hide what he posted proves otherwise.

I do not exaggerate when I say I have a rifle that will shoot .5 MOA all day long, however I never have, and never will.
I have owned many rifles that have shot that tight, but NEVER all day long , or consistently - it simply does not happen that way.
And for the record, I have never shied away from a match , be it postal or live, have won a few Nats as well as Provincial matches over the years, but I have also blown more than a few because of stupid mistakes, fatigue or simply being out shot by better shooters.
so ya, I may have an attitude according to some but it is usually misread as such.......

Well I certainly never, ever take your comments or rebutals as being ego driven Cat. As a somewhat experienced shooter and reloader myself, I can honestly say that I look up to you as a straight shooter...pardon the pun
|
Yeah, no blustering or ego in that post. And what's with all the red herrings?
The playground bullies made another one lose his temper. Too bad.

I have known him for many years,and he has always been that open and honest.And he is a dedicated hunter and shooter,when I was at the range today in the blowing snow,and -14 temperature,the only people that were there were myself,the Cat,and one other shooter.

I'm at a loss.
A guy puts up a good post to illustrate why you can't predict which load a rifle will like.
You know as a bit of a heads up to those asking advice in these matters.
Some guy comes on suggests something totally irrelevent to the intent of the post.
Some of the claims as posted in the irrelevent post get questioned by a few folks who know where the bear craps in the buck wheat.
And from there the thread death spiraled.
Gitrdun, can I borrow your knife?

Yeah, that's about it. Hotroddin misreads the original post and posts what he thinks is helpful information regarding tightening groups. Dick284 starts in on him. The playground wannabees start stretching the story. Catinthehat gets his panties in a wad. Then the playground wannabees pile on with speculation, innuendo and red herrings till hotroddin gets mad. Instigators and agitators step back pointing fingers at hotroddin wanting "justice" for his poor behavior.
No different than Grade 3 playground supervision.

I missed alot of something or other here. From what I read above there seems to have been quite a bit of editing since nothing looks to be bannable.
Gotta log in more frequently!

Anything that is edited after someone else posts in the thread shows up with a tag under it showing it was edited. Anything that is quoted does not change if it is subsequently edited by the original poster. There is no discrepancy between the posts by 4roddin and that which is quoted by others. There are no tags under his posts. If he edited it was shortly after posting and before anyone else replied or quoted.
He apologized for his behavior, which was more honor than I saw from any of the instigators and agitators in this thread.

After reading this whole thread from start to finish it really looks like the wrong guy was banned. Simply gave input on a subject and was pounced on by the masses. As a new member I guess I cant ask questions or give feedback without potentially being verbally attacked berated etc. Too bad that 4roddin guy is gone just looks like a guy lost his temper a bit. But I guess in the end he learned his lesson. This site isnt full of fellow sportsmen but rather rude critics trying to antagonize the newer members. WOW that just sound like Jerry's final thought...lol have a good holiday season gents.

His posts were definitely edited,the derogatory names that he used to refer to Newfoundlanders no longer appear,but they most certainly did exist in his posts before they were edited.

His most derogatory remarks appeared about 21 hours ago.Immediately after reading them,myself and gitrdun suggested that a ban might be forthcoming as a result of his posts.Almost immediately he began editing his posts to remove the derogatory remarks.Had you seen his remarks towards Newfoundlanders and the forum members,as well as his blatant statement that he could care less about the moderators,it isn't hard to understand why he would be banned.
