I feel your pain, Richard. Those type take shooting way too seriously to have fun. My buddy and I were shooting together on such a squad where one shooter was shooting a high end K-gun and he was convinced he was the best shooter to hit the course that day. We, of course, were shooting our Parkers and generally someone will come up and ask us a question about them while we are waiting to shoot. Well, you would think that we were in the gallery on the 18th hole at the Masters because he would lower his gun and turn around and ask us to please keep quiet while he was shooting. Excuuuuuse me! That did it. From that station on I beared down and cleaned the next three stations. What happened at the next station was what this story is all about. He had been bragging to his friends about his super duper loads which will break targets past 60yds. His first shot ruptured his barrels at the chamber, completely destroying the receiver and peeling the top barrel like a banana. The gun was destroyed but he just had a few cuts on his hands and arms, otherwise unharmed. Here is where I could'nt help myself. I walked over and remarked that I would hate to see one of his 80yd. loads. Hey... if you can't take a joke. Never saw the guy again at this club.
