An unethical shot is one you take, that you know you shouldn't.

Thought this was an "overrated firearm" thread, not an "overrated rifle round" thread??? I lost interest in it when someone said the 10/22 was overrated.

Would yall please stop quoting onlyS&W - I have him on iggy so I don't have to expose myself to that level of stupid. But then you would miss out on all his "wisdom".  That water bucket getting heavy? Do I need to remind you of why you lie about me every time you post? It started when you got butt hurt when I corrected you and your hero about the application of loctite on scope rings, resulting in over tightening. You were both wrong. I wasn't rude about it at all, just having a conversation and you and your hero couldn't stand it. Look up the thread. That lead me to me asking you about your qualifications and I disagreed with your claim of being an engineer. Other than not knowing that custom barrels are marked in the same way machine tolerances are sometimes called out, what have I been wrong about? I liked you better when you once told me that you had a lot of respect for me. The reason I never called you out for the lie you post about me? I love it when someone asks me what that is all about. It gives me the opportunity to tell them that you're a waterboy for another member of this forum and you're not an engineer as you claim to be, that you were wrong on an issue, got hurt over it and think you're friends with someone that you had to pay a lot of money to get his friendship button. So, leave me in your signature line as it is. It costs someone business every time I get asked about it. It's like I told your hero that you paid all the money to so that you could be his friend; "don't start none, there won't be none". Bring it on, someone pushes me, I hit back. Been that way since 1st grade Bless your heart, you still don't fully understand torque and its relation to clamping force.  Suggest going to YouTube, lot's of tutorials on torque and its affect on clamping force.
I was wrong...on anything technical. Fitz............. is right, ya know............

Maybe we should all try to behave like men on this site instead of Jr high schoolers.

My apologies. I still think Tikka and 7mm-08 are overrated. But if i ever commission a custom rifle, I would probably ask JG to build me a 7-08AI on a tikka action. Because it would be awesome.

I'm not fond of any firearm with a monte carlo stock. I like Weatherby calibers or any other flat shooting caliber but I won't buy one with a Monte Carlo stock. Not fond any rainbow caliber.

I shoot right and left handed everyday, so I'm not a fan of a raised comb either, unless it's designed for ambidextrous use.

What is a rainbow caliber? I think he is taking about bullet drop so likely anything under 3000 fps at the muzzle.

If I haven't said it, 3030 lever actions are the gayest of all time
Do you realize the model 1894 Winchester chambered in 30-30 is the first commercially built repeating rifle built to use smokeless powder? Yeah the first one. Hard to overrate the impact that had on the firearms industry…
