Sometimes,guys will be postin` on a thread about huntin`..and they`ll be namin` off their favirite rifle calibers for the job.Then I`ll post somethin` like:'Hey,guys,that would bee real cool to go huntin` with ya`ll" ..and it seems real quiet on that thread for a while,after that.Then it will get real busy on that thread again....and I`ll say somethin` like:'hey,guys,when are we gunna do this here huntin trip?' ....and it gets all quiet again,like some of them might think I`m too under-gunned to hangout with`em Does anybody think this might be the case,or could it be that I`m tryin` too hard ta be eccepted?Maybe it don`t sound very cool to say"hey guys" Any suggestions?..maybe I should change my name to somethin` more bigger than .218,maybe the guys think I only like bees .218...(for now)

    I had bees once as a little boy. I could not stand getting stung for a little bit of honey when icould walk down the road to the neighbors and trade them a dozen eggs for a quart of honey with the comb and all. MMMMMMMsongdog

    .218,I think I would stay with the Bee. Could you just imagine what that 700 Nitro Express would sound like at night in the "Glades"? You would wake up those transplanted yankees for miles around.

    Bigger caliber does not make a better name. I know one guy who chooses a big caliber for his name, and he is the biggest bozo who posts on this BB. Stick with the BEE

    218-He might have been talking about me. That's okay, (sniff, sniff) I'm a big boy, I can take it (sniff, sniff). I look at it this way - as Firesign Theater put it, "We're All Bozos on This Bus"!

    The person that I was refering to, will know exactly(if he reads this) who I am talking about. So, if you are not sure if I am refering to you, it is not you.

    Salzo:Way to be a grumpy old man. Have a cup of coffee, drain the fluid from the ol' knee, and chill out.If it was in response to something I'd understand, but why start thumping on the guy out of the great blue yonder? Not cool.

    Sorry for being snotty. That's not good.Still, if you're gonna stir, why cant you stir about something less personal?For example: Why the heck would someone want a cartridge as small as .218?Unless it's mouse season, of course.(stir, stir, stir)
