I am new to all this and would hate to see you leave. I to have learned a lot. Happy hunting!!!!"
Anyone who hates you doesn't know you or is just a raging *** and that's coming from someone who doesn't hunt with Bergers.Guys I am still around and hunting quite a bit. We have taken 5 Bulls down so far, 3 of them 5x5's and 2 were 6x6. The largest being my son's he took with his 300 win and a 230 Berger at 815 yards. 3 were taken with the LRKM with 300 Berger OTM's and one with a 7mm/300 sending 180 Berger Hybrids. None have left the scene. Also took a nice mule deer buck and 3 antelope all with Bergers. Headed out now to take a young lady hunter of 13 years to hopefully fill her cow tag. Then another cow hunt tomorrow and taking my wife for a bull later this week.
I have been spending time on another LR forum and reported a little there. Just thought I would give it a rest here as all we hunt with are Bergers and a hand full of members here hate me for it. Just not the forum it use to be. But rest assured we are still hunting our butts off.
Hope you all have a great season.

agreed. I appreciate those of you more experienced members who take the time to help the more junior members.This remindes me a little of LTLR, what happened to him. He had tons of posts and had built many a custom alot on weatherbys and had more trophys than many combined on this site.
Here is another praise to jeff. I gave the bergers a chance because of his thread last year. Whenever Ihave a problem he is always there to help me out. I also would like to know of this other lr site.
I can't speak for him but I think he just got tired of some of the BS from some members.

This seems to be a common new phase of the internet communication. I have been in Broz' situation in the past and have reduced my participation on various sites from 90-100%. It just gets old after a while and starts to get to you.
The one thing that might be learned from this is the fact that maybe some of us (ME INCLUDED) should jump all over critical and offending posts by keyboard commandoes that do not know or have even met the idividual. If we don't monitor ourselves on this site it will turn into the same as another site that I no longer even open up anymore because of all the negative personal attacks. We as a group can't expect the site owners/administrators to control each and every post/response/topic etc.. or they get accused of censoring.
We have lost a number of very knowledgeable people over the years because they believe in what they are doing and are getting blasted for those thoughts/comments. Never once have I seen these attacks proven the individual was not accurate in their presentation but go at them personnnally.
I could care less if you run a ford/chevy or dodge but don't tell me I'm a dumb Chit or after a while I'll just take my ball and glove and go play on a different playground..
Society has changed in that communication is now almost instantaneous - look what is happening down in Miami with the Dolphins and two multi-millionaire ball players where one finally said I can't take it anymore. SAD - welcome to the 21st century.
Only been on this forum for a few months, but Jeff took the time to provide excellent recommendations on a 300 Win Mag load. Much appreciated. As well, the other contributers have been knowledgeable and helpful. Once again, very refreshing.
Was part of a forum in Canada that got taken over by the judgemental set more interested in hearing themselves speak than anything else. Destroyed the forum, and all the good contributers left.
Truly enjoy this forum, and sincerely hope that the judgemental set doesn't take it over.

I lurked on this site for a really long time before finally joining and got alot of great info. I have to admit that most of the knowledge I have on long range shooting I have learned from this site. Not that I still dont have alot to learn! So this seems like the rite time for me to say thanks to all the people I have learned from, such as Broz,LongTimeLongranger,MontanaRifleman,SidecarFlip,Mudrunner2005,and the list goes on from there. So thanks guys and if I misspelled your names sorry in advance
. Thanks again again guys and goodluck on your next hunt.gun)
