Definitely not butt hurt just maybe hinting at why you get attcked so much.
Gave me money or I worked for it? I don't sit on forums complaining that I don't have money and times are hard. Sounds bummish.
You sound like a guy at sportsman's claiming you know all and Hornady is crap.. again, I'm just here to stir the pot.
Well, times have been hard around here, so I haven't had as much work as I'd like. That's changed now...Finally.
I never said you didn't work for what you have, but don't say I don't know what i'm talking about, either, when you know I do. I might not have those cartridges, but that doesn't mean that I don't know all about them, their ballistics, capabilities, etc... I like to read-up and study them, just like the old ones.
I don't like to be at odds with people, especially random internet people, because it's just irritating as hell to have someone following you around nit-picking and contradicting everything you say, in an attempt to delegitimize you, but some folks just keep pushing my buttons...I'll leave other names out of it, even though we ALL know the folks I'm talking about.
I definitely hate the big box store people, too...Always have, always will. I use Hornady products, brass, bullets, and ammo, so I would never say everything they make is crap. That would be absurd. That being said, I do think their "new" cartridges are somewhat redundant and kool-aid punch bowl marketing. They're not bad cartridges, I just want others to realize what they're buying into.
