See above. The point, idiot, is that ".22s" is *not*, by definition or otherwise, restricted to rimfire, which is what you claimed in total ignorance and conflict with reality. >>> You are not >>>describing the bullet, you are describing the cartridge. >> >> You are an idiot.

Neither does "centerfire" for that matter. Obvsiously there are lots of .22 centerfire cartridges, so why are you repeating the foolishness that they are all rimfire? >>>Why don't you do us all a big favour and take a good old daisy bb >>>gun out there on your next polar bear hunt. >> >> You are an idiot. >> >> Why don't you *learn* something. > >We're too busy teaching.

Whenever anyone refers to a .22, they are referring to rimfire unless they state otherwise. Everyone, except you, knows this, apparently. And you are the kind of person who cannot be told anything so we are going to have to let it go. And we don't find the continued insults very helpful. Obviously you have a lot of hostility built up within you. Cabin fever, perhaps? Has it been a long winter? How high does the pot grow in your neck of the woods (tundra?) before it flowers? cordially, as always, rm

We have made a comeback in that there are now as many beers as their were 100 years ago but we haven't yet reached the point were you can go into a major eatery and find a beer you haven't tried yet. It is getting better, literally, every month but isn't there yet. Last weekend we brewed our first batch of beer. On Sunday we will find out how it tastes and a few weeks from now we will find out if it is any good. My vote for the next batch is a true Ginger Beer. Should be tasty. - -- =()==()==()==()==()- http://fauxascii.com \ \ \ \ \ \ ASCII artist :F_P:-O- -O- -O- -O- -O- -O- -O- Get your ASCII Art T-Shirt: http://www.keystroketshirts.com/ascii/dream-in-ascii-fullView.php# -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.4 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFGTm4JSJec2PH9pbURAknqAJ42/7l0u63rVPadSIJBY55Gn8fsSACfd1KZ PBT0JhpMG9FrdrcQ4msre4g= =dF97 -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

I have in the past seen someone do just that, lie under a barrel, (which was mounted on a stand), with the tap open, drinking the beer, its very messy and wasteful. -- Two Ravens "...hit the squirrel..." |
