[QUOTE="Michael Eichele, post: 138937, member: 1007"] If I had spoken abusivly to Gustavo, I would apologize. In fact, Gustavo, if you took what I said in any kind of abusive manner, I do apologize. That certainly is not what was intended. As for you CS, I happen to deal with Gustavo alot. And he is one of my customers. I think I know him better than you do. Stay out of what Gustavo and I talk about. I also told him that he was doing good work and to keep it up and that hopefully him or I or both could someday make a more usefull computer based shooting tool than what we already have. You left that part out though cause that wouldnt help smear my name. That is OK. As for the rest, you are right, as a ballistic software "sales man" I should claim false things. Anything to make a sale right? Thats what every other sales man would do, so I should too right? Wrong. I say the truth, even if it help me LOOSE a sale. I stand by the fact that the purpose of ballistic software is to give you accurate bullet drops in a ever changing enviornment by using a verified BC and drag model. If that scares customers away, then they are not the customers I want in the first place. And BTW, yes, I did write ALL of the code in my software. You can read it at the copywrite office in Washington DC. As far as not knowing anything about external ballistics, that is the pot calling the kettle black. I have enough 1 shot LR kills (over 600 yards) to make me feel warm and fuzzy all over. I dont need to be told that I do or dont know anything about external ballistics. [ QUOTE ] I kept looking in the past archives, and what do I find, a while back you are asking the board how bullets fly, and how to handle Baro/temp issues. Now that is not what one would expect from a self proclaimed expert that tells everybody else "What it is!!" [/ QUOTE ] I am not afraid to learn new things as I have an open mind. Bear in mind all thing learned here or on my own or with the aid of others here, all is verified. Some questions are to verify what I have already tested, some questions are to fill in the blank spots. That doesnt make me a novice. I also never tell anybody that IS how it is. If someone askes what we know, If I know something, I will chime in on my 2 cents. At least I am out there experimenting and learning WITH an open mind. You should try it someday.
