How about I load up some bacon bullets, and we check ballistics. Would that make you happy? Best of both worlds.

Ok, 158gr smoked maple HPBT moving 2,200 fps......

(Happy? Hell, I bet you'd stand down range with your mouth open.)

I don't know why I bother reading any thread past 2 pages... as I know it will have nothing to do with the topic....

Lim f(t) =0
t--->oo

where f(t) is the relevancy of the post to the topic
and t is the number of posts....

OH GOD I'M contributing to this nonsense....

Welcome to the dark side.

You want a thread to stay on topic for more than 2 pages, bring up topics like "The trinitron Case" and "1911 vs Glock" and "Why 9mm is the best caliber known to man" Those will stay on topic well into the triple digit page count. (besides, this one stayed on topic well into page 4, so TBTBTBTBTBTBTBTBTBT)

True enough. Lets revive the 6 page debacle that was the 1911 magazine debate. That one was just chock full of objective, clear cut and dried evidence as to why some are better than others. As we found out, the best magazines were... wait, we didn't really uncover that one did we?

I don't know about you but I think EJSG19 is definitely prettier, unless you have a thing for the bearded lady.

Strad you have this weird thing for calling grown men pretty. You might want to get that checked out.

As to the rest, its a little late to call one thread crazy when its not the first bull at the rodeo. Keeping threads on topic is not what this place is known for. If a question hasn't been answered in 2 pages or less, there must not be a real clear answer. Not trying to flame anyone,.whatever that means, just my poor choice of words for saying what I just said.

FYI Bessy, I don't know from experience, but learning about Strad's bedtime preferences is probably a world you'd rather not visit. Note the calling men pretty thing... :twisted:
