I've Been Bamboozled

This wasn't just an elaborate scheme to finally get your hands on the mighty Creed and still save pride? What could you do, you had to give it a try, after all, it was gift? ;)
Seriously, what a great roast by folks that care! Awesome to have great friends! To those that sent the gift, well played!
 
Bamboozled is the only word that I can think of that will express what I want to say and still consider myself a Christian ;)
Got back from a our snowmobile trip to find a package at the farm with Merry Christmas ButterBean wrote great big with a sharpie, I immediately asked my wife what she had done and I got the deer in the headlights look, long story short I open the box and find a rifle case with a rifle inside and a very nice note explaining how my friends knew that I was in denial so they figured they would help me out so they sent me a Needmoor .......................... Yeah that's right a **** Needmoor, They had my wife in on it but wouldn't tell her what it was because they knew she would never let it in the house, So with that being said and as much as I love all of you, Steve @RockyMtnMT , Brian, @Riceman, @farleg and @GLTaylor, It's now game on my friends, Game On

P.S. I'm still smiling from ear to ear
oh boy is this gonna be fun!😂😂😂

Butterbean- You have got me to try some things that I would not have tried before. Crimp dies for all my calibers, STP for case lube Etc. Have not tried Hammer bullets yet, mostly because I have enough other bullets to last a few more years of loading. It will take a lot to sway me to new caliber. It might be like riding a Honda- it's fun until your buddy's see you doing it.

And the funny thing is no one I know feels any resentment towards the .243 Winnie. A more gutless cartridge than the 6.5 creed but it's not claiming to reinvent anything, it's old and boring, and for me most of all it isn't being sold as something it's not, it's not claiming to dethrone .30 cals or 270s. I like my 243. It's honest haha. I don't plan to buy a 6.5 creed anytime soon BUT friends that buy you a rifle as a PRANK are true friends indeed! Congrats to @ButterBean, on the friends as much as the rifle.
 
Since Santa delivered the rifle that will sprout a man bun, maybe if you are vocal about a scope that will make you wear skinny jeans the Easter Bunny will deliver 😀
BB in skinny jeans? That's an image that will haunt me tonight trying to sleep! To think I actually won a 6.5CM and sold it for my .270TH build.
