    Spanners - For somebody that puts so much work into the backend of the forum you seem intent on fucking it up from the frontend. I dont understand it.

    Like so many of your posts, you're coming across like an arrogant, conceited, classless retard.

    Come on man, you're better than that............right...............maybe......... ....

    Hmmmm, I wonder how long it will be before my settings get all stuffed up again....................

    I'll stickup for my friends or someone I've never met if they deserve it.
    You know fuck all about any of the history, however any time something arcs up you're straight in there like a groupie.
    With your head so far up your ass, I'm surprise you can still manage to gobb him off

    Spanners I didn't mean for my post to start a personal attack on you.
    My comments didn't just apply to this thread.
    7mmSAUM is a good guy and my comments were definately not taking a stance against him.
    I just feel that Grag Duley cops a fair bit that he doesn't deserve.
    Like you I stick up for people when I think they need it.

    I agree with Gimp. I come here to read about hunting and shooting. I think it's time we all ended the personal attacks and went back to talking about 338's
    If my work annoys me, I cull them

    The trouble is as soon as some one posts some interesting stuff he gets shot down IF he is on the wrong side of the "fence"

    Especially if some one else can't acheive that speed, therefore according to them, with no real knowledge about the platform in question, they are exceeding the "safe" pressure & are a danger to everyone & are completely irresponsible posting those speeds.

    This stops quite a few people posting stuff, technical, hunting stories etc.

    With the Edge 2820-50 fps USED TO BE the benchmark speed with a 30" barrel.

    I found out a wee while ago that is easily safely acheivable in a 26" barrel, making it a lighter more user friendly rifle with a great brake on it.

    I hadn't tried up until then because I asked Shawn C a while ago now how much I would lose with a 26" barrel, he told me 150fps, 28-2850-150=2650-2700 what a waste of time so I didn't bother, now I can get that speed out of a 23" barrel.....

    Things have changed & 2900+ is acheivable in an average 30" Edge safely, some will go faster.... some won't.....

    My first 26" was happy at 2840, the last two are happier at 2810-20, accuracy is still nuts, just like the 30" at 2900 ish.


    We will have more 375s to play with very soon from mild to wild, should be fun & will leave the 338s in the dust
