If the data in the manual is the same that is posted on the site,why did you use the R-19 data instead of the R-22 data?After all,you did post that you used the fastest loads from the manual.However the R-22 load listed on the site is faster than the R-19 load that you posted.Either you didn't use the fastest load in the manual as you posted you did,or the data listed on the site is different from that listed in your manual.If the data is different,perhaps the barrel length is as well.
As I already stated, John Jr. stated on 24hrcampfire that all of the testing they have done with the 280 AI has been done with the same Wiseman 26" barrel. Read before you post, I have stated this twice. And the RL22 data isn't in the new manual as far as I see, but if you really need your extra 8fps
Did he write about killing moose or caribou.Then using your logic,he must never have killed either of those species either.It has been established by Sako Alberta as well as myself, that Bell did work as a professional hunter in the Yukon shooting game to feed the gold rush participants.The main game species in the area were caribou,moose,and dall sheep,so it is only logical that these were the species that he hunted.If he didn't hunt those three species,what did he hunt?
You seriously love putting words in people mouths. I think you may be verging on dense, or your penchant is to apply an over exuberant imagination to everything people post in contention with what you write. I KNNNNOOOWWW that Bell was in the Yukon. I made the point that Bell's fame came from shooting e-l-e-p-h-a-n-t-s. O'Connor's fame came from s-h-e-e-p. And O'Connor used a .270 primarily. Neither used the 280 AI you where originally praising as overshadowing the .270. The facts have been paved that there is a minute difference between the two cartridges, and you seem to feel the need to take all of this down a rabbit trail.
Bell did not just hunt for his own subsistence in the Yukon,he hunted to feed many people,as such,he was a professional hunter,or a market hunter.The species that he hunted has not yet been proven,but only you deny that dall sheep could have been a part of his kill.
Hunting primarily for food is subsistence hunting. Sorry I didn't point out that he was also a market and trophy hunter too. I haven't denied he shot Dalls. I stated he never wrote about pursuing them. Shake your head.
As for O'connor,he was a superb writer,but he killed many of his sheep on guided hunts.Given the same money,and time that he had available,as well as the abundance of sheep and lighter hunting pressure during his peak hunting career,many people could have killed just as many sheep as he did.
To this all I can say is you know very little about the man, and to state, Jack knew many people that killed more and bigger sheep than he did. Did he bite you as a child or something?
This one.
Nice partial quote. I can make just about any book say what I need to if we are going to play that game.
I have given quite a few facts from factual sources that re-enforce my statements. Still waiting on yours.
This is quite similar to the radar discussion had on AO. You refused to prove anything put to you and eventually were forced to admit you where wrong, or stop posting. You stopped posting.
