[QUOTE="Pro2A, post: 1900832, member: 17889"] The "****" are apparently LRH's automated word police. I had typed "aw excrement" using four letter version for a really big screw-up. Those past moments are the reason for 75' berms now. While one probably won't put one over those berms on our range, in hunting one doesn't have 75' berms. A wrong profile typically means a miss at least or a very errant round with possibly disastrous results....ricochet.....round over a ridge crest......wrong animal down, etc. Shooting several MRAD change barrels plus .50BMG/.416B with bullets from 100-850gr over 10 calibers and multiple barrel lengths/profiles one could easily have drastically varying profiles and select profile 3 rather than profile 4 on a Sig2400 in an "aw ****" moment with disastrous results. One shouldn't, but the potential increases with such cryptic designations. That's what an "aw ****" moment is. The cryptic designation contributes to one of those moments. Some see potential problem; others don't....or ignore/accept. That's where I made my money seeing the same inputs as everyone else, but envisioning different relationships and outcomes upon which to capitalize.....or to preclude those "aw ****" probabilities for appreciative clients. Sig2400 cryptic designations are not acceptable for me...or the club. ....YMMV. Enjoy your Sig2400. We all pay and play as we see fit. Thanks for your perspective and thoughts. Safe hunting and shooting. [/QUOTE]
