From the looks of your posts there's quite a bit that irks you. I'm thinking that you may have a creedmoor hidden in the back of your safe but you wouldn't even tell your dog that it's there.

I think the gentleman is trying to disguise the fact that he owns a 270.....

I'll add my experience...I borrowed a Colt SA .22 revolver from a friend. The gun had been in his family for years. When I wnt to load it, I couldn't get a LR to load into the cylinder. I looked at the bores, they all had a ring of accululated carbon about halfway down. He and his family had been shooting only 22 shorts in it. I think they used it to shoot flies off the wall in winter time. I got a few soft twigs and cleaned those bores out so a 22 LR would load. I had no use for the short before then, but now I despise it.

Please, allow me to add Electric Vehicle to this list. It could serve as short hand for the whole list...

An English author I like spent time in Burma during WWII. He loved his rifle SMLE .303 British. Tossed away a perfectly good Tommy gun to get his back. He made me a believer, until I got a Garand.Oh if I had an m1 you bet I'd never part with it haha.
My friend is still kicking himself over selling his old UNADULTERATED military rifle, a mint condition enfield .303. Full wood stock, still had the bayonet, everything. They're very common in Canada but not like this - every idiot with power tools or a file had to "sporterize" these formerly dignified and grimly serious pieces of hardware, and most were not gunsmiths by a mile and it shows. I've seen some real hack jobs that would just about make a man weep. Why would you do that to this rifle!? What did it ever do to you!?!?
I saw a video where they poked some well deserved fun at .303 owners.
"If your favourite cartridge is .303 British, your gun maintenance kit is a roll of electrical tape, a flat head screw driver, a can of wd40, and a rusty bastard file. No one with a beautiful wood stocked rifle should let you within a mile of it as the urge to take a dremel to it will be irresistible. And you're probably Canadian or Australian"
