Busted!

well been doing a bit of research, and using common sense and deductive reasoning

Seems I've been called out on this forum by a guy from idaho, he knows I'm a liar and he shoots better than me, Ok lets address some facts
this person seems to know alot about everything, he's so sure of his ability he's coming from idaho to prove he's a better shot than I am, fine bring it on if you wanna spend that kinda cash proven a point.
Now after he challenged me, he challenged everyone that questioned it, he's been her for just over a month, claims extensive experience with handloading, but has posted asking for load data from folks who are just like me and can make up anything as he puts it.
I've been on this sight a long time, have took alot of negative input about my passion of long range shooting, and I've defended my methods, equipment and experience vigorously, but I don't take kindly to being called a liar.
Now this member has worlds of experience, lotsa guns, reloads with the best of them, shoots better'n anybody, but seems the only pics he posts are those of his job at a taxidermy shop, he's a bear hunting guide, but anybody ever see any pics? he's an expert marksman, pics? he works for nightforce but told me in a pm that leupold was better? say what?
said he didn't own a nightforce, until he got alot of ribbing for calling me out, Then all of a sudden he owned a 338 Edge built by shawn carlock of defensive edge, with a NF scope.
If this were true I would look foreward to the challenge, I seldom get to shoot with folks who own proper equipment to shoot 1000 yards.
Just out of curiosity I emailed shawn carlock, whom I've had many, many internet conversations with and asked him about this so-called member (who posted his name on his profile), his response was (excerpt)

I never built him one or even know him.

and I asked what the chances were of purchasing a rifle used (excerpt)

It is possible that he got a used one but not likely.

This is the member who was tired of the "internet experts" as he put it who's been here a month and calls me a liar, anyone can be an expert here, but hang around long enough the truth usualy comes out

Dang, I was hoping to come up and do the judging...Also hoping to make a little money on side bets as well...

Guess I'll keep my mouth shut on who my money was going to ride on...

This has to stop.
Nobody likes being called a liar or any of the other allegations going on, but this is not the place or the way to handle this.

From this point forward all posts like this will be locked or deleted. Posters will be warned and/or banned.

Because I don't know who to blame for this rash of bashing and finger pointing, I'm not banning anyone at this point... but know that I will in the future.

Sorry! Please don't think that I'm taking sides by locking this thread.

There were several that were involved in this bashing disagreement. Understand that debate is fine and good, but bashing each other by calling them liars, (whether it is true or not) will not be tolerated. Taking a disagreement to PM is fine too, but that doesn't open the road for you to bash or harass someone by the PM feature. Have fun and play nice.
