Thanks guys for the kind words. I joined this forum a while back for the same reason most of us have joined, to learn from others and exchange ideas. As I learned and experimented I started passing along what I have found out.

When I started shooting I made lots of mistakes, and all I could do was try to get better at it, but it was frustrating. There were some guys that would not tell me anything when I asked questions, but there were others that were very helpful. I was lucky enough to finally meet a really good shooter that helped me along the way, and by listening to him things got much easier. That's why I like to help shooters, because I know it's more fun that way.

Something I find frustrating is when I "reveal" some of the things I have found out through testing, and when I do, there are some that disagree and argue, but their arguments are null because I have done the testing and they haven't. It bothers me because it usually cost me time and money to find out about such things, and when I reveal it to a struggling shooter asking the right questions, some hard headed member will advise him wrong and now the shooter becomes confused instead of finally having a break through.

All of you who know me know I don't hold back, if you ask, I will tell you. Sometimes I tell shooters so much that depending on their level some of it goes over their heads, but it's ok, sooner or later they will understand what I meant when they cross that bridge.

Well, sorry for the long winded post, but after all this time I'm still like most of you, still seeking ultimate precision like when I started.

Don't forget guys, the quality of the answers depend on the quality of the questions asked.

Well said Erik, we know you speak from the heart ;D. 3000 posts is a milestone. Good stuff !!
