I vote for letting the thread run its course. Both sides arguements are NOT without some merit. We watch. We read. We listen. We decide for ourselves. Both sides views may be altered somewhat before it' s all over.

Maybe I should sharpen up my technique and get some training and perhaps I' ll be good out to 400 yards instead of 250.

Maybe they will pass on more of their 1000 yard shots than before if everything isn' t juuuuuust right. Or perhaps they' ll back off to 600-800 yards.

Probably not. But it is a healthy dialog -- just a spirited " debate" no fisticuffs that I know of. On balance, some pretty articulate writing. Much better than some of the drivel to be found in some of the other threads.

Sound ideas, well written, will stand up for themselves (no moderator needed).
