I have two guys that about 5 or 6 years ago were just like the OP's friend. I did whatever they wanted regarding the gear they bought and often it just didn't work out too good. Finally, they both got to the point where shooting the same 1 1/2" or 2" groups while I had bullets touching most of the time caused them to ask why, since they often spent the same amount of money as me.
Sometimes it's best to let 'em get to that point and then tell them. I aint giving nobody a shine...I wont call their guns and equipment junk, but if they ask I will not lie to make them feel good either.
