I agree, and they are too lazy to write in "Swede". What a bunch of jerks.

What do you mean by that comment? I get as many votes when I don't post a picture as when I do.

Unfortunately the great rambo bear destroyer project is on hold due to manufacturer defects and piss poor customer service. May be a while... :cry:

Huh? I think I have dealt with that outfit before. You can sort of win out in the end, but you won't likely consider it a "win" when you count up all of the effort, and waiting you have to go through to accomplish what would seem a logical conclusion. Poor products equal poor service because the company can't deal with all of the problems, and they likely have spent your money paying off some other disgruntled customer. The program they run is like musical chairs. Good Luck.

Yeah its a bummer, but i suppose i can live without the 450 bushmaster for a while. Got my red dot reflex sight dialed in on the 444 marlin and its greatly exceeding my expectations on accuracy. Im shocked at how well im shooting that thing out to 100 yards, and i have no intention of shooting a bear past a max of 50 anyway, what would be the fun in that?

Don't get in a big hurry 7mm. I am only 5 votes behind. If things get any closer I will ask for a recount.

You're right Seede. I should slow my roll considering I'm not in the lead! Someone could still overtake IS. A little luck and a few old voter registration cards could seal it for me.

Indian Summer (Joe) is the lucky winner this month. I'll get a bag of rocks or something sent his way for winning the March WT Photo of the Month contest ;)

Congrats IS. I'm SO happy for you. Enjoy those rocks, RJ spares no expense with these prizes. I'm sure they will be high quality quartzite or something like that. Maybe some agates. At the very least, some washed drain rock.

Actually I could use some rocks to put in my day pack to do some hiking. Ever since this quarantine business started I’ve eaten so much I’m having trouble packing my own hind quarters around! They don’t sell them on Camofire either!

Congrats Joe. You are going to have to work hard to find a picture so you can top this contest.
