The non-stop posts in The Bear Pit that belong in Bolt Action, Rimfire, Semi-auto, Scattergun?

This place has to be the simplest forum on the Interwebs to navigate. There are big colorful banners everywhere saying what “section” something is.

And the name “bear pit” is really descriptive of a place to come and get mauled! Like… duh. Or do folks all think bears are cuddly things like Yogi who pose for memes now?

So are folks lazy? Stupid? Illiterate? Testing out AI? Assuming that the Bear Pit is full of Glowie bait (hellooo fellow short shotgun enthusiasts!). A massive wave of newbies who don’t take the time to learn about this place before posting? Bored hippies stuck in the desert at Burning Man with their cell phones and new cases of the Clap trying to create gun question art installations in The Bear Pit?

WTF. Not even impugning the quality of folks’ questions. In the right place, they are fine. But in the BP, just a reflection of something new going on. And that something is retarded.

Carry on. Except you folks posting non-stupid shit in the Bear Pit. You all: don’t carry on.

So this is not the right forum to find out if I can get 53 grains of 6043 in a 308 case?
Serious replies only! Smart ass replies will be ignored.

I have vast experience getting 53 grains of 6043 in a .308 case.

First, you get one of those big annoying Olive Garden Pepper mills. Fill it with 6043.

Then you grind it up really fine and, presto, it all fits.

BTW, you will get tighter groups if you ask the prepped casing (in a really lispy manbun voice) “would you like fresh ground 6043 with your primer?”

Follow me for more tier-one loading advice.

What if the question concerns a bolt rifle found in a dumpster?
Click to expand...
That definitely belongs here!!

If it was found in a Cabelas, it would go in bolt action. If it was found in Great Great Uncle Fergus’s attic, it would go in vintage. If it was a bolt action Mossberg 12 ga goose gun, it would go in scatterguns.

See how this works, newbies!!

Good question, Phil!! You helped create a teachable moment!

It's mostly just newbies who still see in the most current SH Rules:

"Do not post the same topic in more than one forum. Pick the most relevant forum for your post. If you are unsure, put it in the Bear Pit, say you were not sure where it belonged, and someone will move it to the proper forum for you."

In the interim, you will be subjected for merciless ridicule for not being able to figure out to post your question about a bolt action rifle in the section clearly marked "Bolt Action Rifles"

Bear Pit Thread About Bears.

@EddieNFL pointed out quite correctly that The Bear Pit is severely lacking in information about bears. So this thread is for posting facts about bears. Stories about bears. Pictures of bears and other bear-like subjects. In fact, bears can swim. Sirhr

I got called a homophobe on Nextdoor because I asked how come all California males, including the old men and cops, talk with a lisp.

I didn't say anything about faggots or queers. Anyway, the fag that threw a snit and resonded didn't deny it, just got butthurt, so that proved it was true.

Yes. Use a conical coffee grinder. Manual, not electric...in the interest of safety.

Now I gotta ask. What is the the medium quality of said grinder? Being that this is SH I am sure there'll be recommendations for the $800 dollar model. I don't want to waste money on the harbor freight unit either.
And NO. I don't want any of y'all's grinder account links either.

Tell them they they are wrong and you are a homophone. Then ask them not to be overbaring.

Well want a be Texas they don't. So your Kin are the Old 300, or fought for the Republic of Texas? I bet you are just a Johnnie Come Lately, standing tall on the graves of those who did the dirty work. My Kin came from the The Republic of Texas in 1841 to California with a herd of cattle, the next came from the Republic of Texas and then the State in 1848 after assisting the American Army in the Mexican American War, the third came to California in 1852, he survived the Goliad Massacre of 1835. California was great until WWII and the mass migration that came after, I left after 180 years of history there. California is Fucked and a Marxist Shithole and Texas is also, you are just in denial of what's coming. I am 9X the Son of the American Revolution, we kept moving West to live in Peace, no place left to run now.

Actually, my kin did come with Austin's original 300 and were here before Texas was a state. One of my ancestors, 26 yr. old Clayborne Wright, fought and died at the Alamo.

So all that typing for nothing. Do you talk with a lisp?
