243 fazination???

[pablo.222]

Bare in mind the socks were like a halloween or fashing mask, meant to distract (BTW: shooting a 7.62N, 330WM or 338L while wearing them). Much different from the bloke that must ensure his pants are up to prevent someone seeing his pink G-string before firing that next punishing round of 243.

Do you think you are more of man because u have fired those? Or is it you think people with .243 are less of a man because they dont fire those?
U keep telling yourself the pink socks are for distractions, more likely they are to get attention from someone, bit like this thread!

When using the 243 I've trained myself to adopt a zen-like calm to overcome that occasional tweak of the g-string on the scrotal region. Oh, and it's a leopard-skin print by the way. Pink is just so 1990's.....

For the 308 then naturally it has to be either the budgie-smugglers or going commando

... or going commando

With a kilt, I presume?

Commando since 1977...

This weekend I was at a boy scout hike and one of the fathers mentioned he was planning to buy a new rifle for deer hunting and was looking at 308's, no one mentioned the 243....

heads up LIDL are doing a kilt for £29.99 and the sporran to keep your .243 rounds in is £9.99

If the sporran were big enough for 308 and such it might be too big in porportion to the 243 shooter's kilt.

Perhaps they could do with a little education then?

This reminds me of the line from Good Morning Vietnam...

"What's the difference between the Cub Scouts and the army? The cub scouts don't have heavy artillery...".

This thread is a bit like 'groundhog day'

Aye it was a bit of a pointless question to begin with, I reckon

Hardly!

At least in Groundhog Day Bill Murray got to improve his knowledge and skills every time the day started over again. Whereas with this thread.......

We used to ask " Do you know the difference between the boy scouts and the Army?" "The scouts have adult leadership!"

So............34 pages and 335 posts on this thread and what have we learned? You don't rate one of the most popular calibres in the UK very highly...........as I said, pointless thread

Clearly you're trying ever so hard to make a point, but you should be a little less obtuse and just make it
