Old Reliable - Do We Need Safe Spaces

The Hide has hit the mark many of us talked about back in 2003-4, congrats you guys are winners. The kid bullshit in this thread is but a rearward looking glass into why this country is in the shape it is. A so called mod and his cronies, can not stand rebuttal an have to revert to off topic innuendo diversions to bolster their stature/view. Yet the root issue for the thread remains. You guys are a class act for sure, but I will give you this. The man who is unwilling to go the distance for his beliefs is always a tool to be used.

Hence the following applies to many in this thread!

The difference between someone guided by principle and someone driven by bias: a person who is guided by principle will stand up to his allies and side with his "opponents" if truth and morality dictates it.
A person who is driven by bias will go to war against reality
in order to defend the identity of the herd.


Now reread the thread an tell me that which you are?

I've had my moments with Tucker, usually because he has a bias towards his friends and his application of the ban hammer. However, in this thread he's been transparent. He's following guidelines set and also, as a mod, he's stated Larry creates more work than he's deemed to be worth. Does he sometimes have fun at other people's expense? Sure, it's the Bear Pit after all.

With the exception of Veer who I'm not sure can shoot or at least hasn't since the Reagan administration (first term) everyone here picks up a firearm and uses it on a regular basis.

No one here hates this country or wants more govt or less freedom. We argue the nuances but no one here disrespects the flag, the Constitution or the folks in uniform who serve in all the capacities available to those with the passion to do so.

No one here is why shit goes south. On a range, at a BBQ, over a beer we would have a lot more in common than otherwise.

Mate, let's all relax, take part in PMs 22 challenge and I hope to god I don't come last.

Cheers and thank you for your willingness to serve this country.
 
Sometimes discretion is the better part of valor. You may not like it when an alpha wolf like Larry pees all in your face but you might as well learn what you can from his technique. Admire that cock and balls as it squirts a hot stream right down your throat.


I don't care much one way or the other about Larry, but in reading through this thread, the above quote struck me as a damned odd line of thought for a man.

That is not true, it was someone who joined a site called "Snipershide", then got their feeling hurt. Now if this place was named Snowflake Shooters on the web, I could see a problem. Remains me of a asshole/s that got caught up (not partake mind you) in a real firefight when on guard, then bitched for days after in a warm hospital bed (being guarded by men) that he did not sign up for that shit. OK, I'm like WTF did you think the US Army was about, growing flowers? Fucking snowflakes come in all sizes/ages an education levels, yet they all have the same lacking, common sense.

Lol. I missed that. I guess PMs German. They're into that sort of thing...



Nah not German just had to spend many a long day listening to my "wolf rescue" co worker go on and on about wolf psychology and caring for wolves.

Not into golden showers, I have sensitive skin and urine gives me a rash.

Just curious though, how many times did you read that line, than leave to only find yourself drawn back to read it again.....hmmmm?

He was lame.

I'll give credit where credit was due, but his trolling was so obvious it defeated any purpose of doing it. Subtle, yet believable trolling like VJJ and others are capable of is hilarious.

Him posting the same 'hint' shit over and over as well as pictures of his Fudded out rifles no one asked about (and what was with his gay affinity for stickers?) just compounded the obvious trolling attempts in him literally starting an argument over anything by repeatedly telling you you're wrong and he's right yet with zero technical reference made it that people just skipped over his posts within the 1st day. Failed attempt; hell the fact we know its Larry just shows how retarded it was.

What was the post/thread that finally did him in? The one in the reloading forum with Frank?

Apparently it was mine asking for info and experience on 22lr ammo and asking what ammo has worked well for others out of their cz455. He trolled the crap out of it with the usual nonsensical stuff about try it out on your own and find out. I eventually just asked for the thread to be deleted because too many "know it alls" were jumping on the bandwagon and the thread served no informational purpose.

lol I read that thread and didn't respond because I figured regardless of what I'd say, he'd just argue and it would further shit in the thread,

My suggestion was to buy a few boxes of Eley (Edge, Tenex, Match) a few boxes of Lapua (Midas, CenterX) a few boxes of Wolf (Match, Match Extra) and maybe toss in some other randoms like SK Plus or RWS and shoot them at 50 and 100 yards, 5 shot groups. This mainly answers the 'which ammo usually works' as it'll be one of these, the trick is which one. I have a CZ455 in the Manners stock with Lilja barrel.

P.S. - Look at the site Champions Choice for match 22LR.

Hint :D

Haha. So ALL of them (said jokingly). I just figured I'd ask thinking someone could at least tell me what wasn't quality ammo so I could skip the trial process there. One guy assumed I just wanted to hear the cheap stuff worked but it's far from the truth. Being my first go around with a halfway decent 22lr, I pretty much know nothing about the 22lr ammo world and where better to ask than here. So far I have a box of Midas plus, SK match rifle and RWS R50 to try out.
 
I enjoy, nay revel, in not only being a delicate, but one of a kind super special snowflake. 99% of the folks would never, without penalty, talk shit to not only someone you have no idea who they really are but more so in person. Being a Human Waste Management professional and a loving HRM knuckle dragger I'm telling you idgets right now, one more mention of either word snowflake or hint and you're gonna get bopped right in the schnozz. But only after I mend a bit more. My bopper be puckered up right meow. :p
Carry on you deplorable bastards. I'm now ready for another dose of enlightenment. Egads !
 
the thread that he is all puss hurt about, talking about 22 ammo...is it gone or can i read it again, reading is all about interpretation and i thought larry was putting something down that wasnt picked up, or maybe it was, anywho, i think we have a boat full of damn pussys here, and i would like to read the thread again before i say what i think i would like to say...

Unlike you, I've actually spoken to Stag556. I had the pleasure of selling him my Giraud Annealer and I messed up by leaving out a couple of parts. He was very cool with it and didn't throw a shit fit the likes I've seen some of the 'men' here do over much much less.

Why don't you try and read AJ's post above and think about how to refer to your fellow shooters. With the exception of Veer, who isn't one of my fellow shooters, I'm going to make a commitment to not be such a prick all the time. It's not that those to whom I am a prick don't deserve it, I just don't need to be the one who takes on the mantle.

Have a wonderful week-end and I hope you find time to reflect and become less of an asshole... goddamit!

Where did you get the notion I was butt hurt about it? I asked that it be deleted because 1. I started it and 2. Because it held no informational value, rather it was just full of nonsense about how I basically shouldn't ask certain questions here. This one specifically about 22lr ammo. What a novel concept that a thread not started in the bear pit should hold informational value. Unless you consider telling someone repeatedly that they shouldn't be asking a question here on Snipers hide, informational.

So here in lies a large problem, now that it's gone, people such as yourself will just assume things rather than actually know them.

I didn't start this thread and I didn't ask that this thread be deleted, to be clear.
 
youre not butt hurt? it says above you asked for that post to be deleted and you made a big stink...
i think you are acting like a puss...
and think about how i refer to my fellow shooters? holy shit, puss...
you guys are a bunch of non fucking hacking pussys...

Made a big stink? Where? And if you read my last post, you'd know why I asked for it just to be deleted but I'm getting the notion you just wanna type the word puss/pussy a lot. You'd have a lot better success on youporn with that one. Have a good night.

Nope.
In fact, I didn't see your thread until you asked me to delete it. I kind of wanted to contribute to it, but when an OP asks for a delete, I generally oblige, unless there is good reason not to.

The fact is that someone brought to my attention a new user who seemed to be on a mission to piss off everyone he came in contact with, and a quick look at his style, and confirmation by tracing the IP, it was obvious it was Larry again.
We have a few members who have reincarnated after being banned, and we generally know who they are. Many, given a second chance, dial themselves back and largely stay in line. Larry is pretty much the opposite of that, and each iteration seems to be less concerned with being discovered and thus removed.
My guess is that he hits a stretch of particularly nasty weather, gets stuck indoors a few days, gets bored, and decides to have some fun at our expense. Thus it's never his intention to be either stealthy or enduring.

Re: 22 ammo, since this is now drudged back up - Good ammo costs more for a reason. Then it's just a matter of finding which good ammo your particular setup likes the best. If you spend time shooting crap and wondering what's wrong with your barrel, rest, scope, bedding, trigger, and every thing else except the ammo, you'll never realize the potential of the rig.
Skim through the 6X5 results, and the loads you want to try are there. Spend the money, do the work, and find your true love through trial and more trial.

I only thought that because the OP of this thread linked my post as the reason why he was banned.

Nope I didnt link your your post as the reason you were banned.

I didnt know your post existed until someone added it to this monstrosity than I read it.

I think Larry was the first response to you and his post was something like

"All ammo you must try.

The rifle speaks. Do you listen?

Hint"


Which is pretty tame for Larry, and the same thing Tucker said in fewer words. It went down hill when you continued to walk into the kill zone and asked questions along the lines "Does anyone here give a straight answer?"

Dont worry about Larry. He will be a lot easier to deal with than the wind when you are trying to find that perfect .22 ammo for your rifle.

Like as has been noted when Larry comes aboard he comes into every post and would even comment on "W hat tampon will work best for me in the field?" if we had a womens only section.

"If the vagina bleeds stop it you must. Tube sock. Hint."

You're right and I apologize, you weren't the one that linked my post. It was another member here. My apologizes for that.

Either way, my original post asked what other ppl have had success with using the setup I purchased, it being a stock offering from CZ, not a custom setup. And yes, that's a pretty straight forward question. Example: I have that rifle. I get my best results using XYZ ammo. My response: Thanks, I'll check that stuff out. That was amazingly simplistic. What a novel concept. And hey, if that ammo didn't work for me, on to the next one. I was actually pretty respectful throughout until he kept piling it on. What happens is suddenly people feel the need to start throwing around useless punch lines and insults because in the world of know it alls, you're not supposed to ask such juvenile and beginner"ish" questions such as that. And as I've stated before, I am a beginner to 22lr but not shooting sports.

I value the info ive received through others, especially the info I've received through PMs from multiple ppl who actually said they didn't want to post in that thread and get pounced on, which is pretty sad that ppl won't post in a thread and share good info because it will just get shit on by others.

Either way, it's done and overwith now.
 
Stag asked a question that everyone understood what he was looking for in response.

Larry gave him the Larry response.

Unfortumately Stag left the military crest and walked on to the skyline exposing a big beautiful silhouette that Larry lit up. Instead of running back into defilade he ran the length of the ridge.

No big deal it happens.

Stag it wasnt your thread that got him banned it was a number of threads.

Im looking forward to what you find regarding your CZ. The CZ varmint looks like a beautiful rifle Im thinking my kids should grow in to.

I was thinking his response to that one may have been my favorite: " Fortunately for me, I don't have to guess. Hint "
 
EDIT: moved to pertinent thread

25rds @ 50yds
Salvage TR, PA4-14x44 mildot, shoots OK.
Think it time to finally bed this bitch up & hope it'll help tighten those stragglers...
