Hey Shoney,

I could have answered the Grizzly Guys question, and it would have been pretty much as the others had answered before you. I learned a long time ago about the inverse relationship of bullet weight and powder charge for a given caliber, and it made sense to me as soon as I thought about it for a minute.

Then you come along with your response that reads like something Robert Oppenheimer's worked on with the Manhattan Project. You know, I have not lived a really sheltered life. I went to school, did a little bit of Algebra and Geometry, and I even graduated from a real college with a real Bachelor's degree and all. I know I am not the brightest person around our parts, but I figured I was at least in the middle of the herd.

Now I feel really bad after reading your post. Notice I said reading your post - not understanding it - not one bit of it. For some time now, I thought you were just another old fellow like myself with a little bit of reloading knowledge gained over the past 50 years. Now I can see I was wrong. Either you are one really smart fellow, or else all that stuff you wrote you copied out of some of the Manhattan Project reports. You sure know how to make a guy feel humble.

Best wishes,
Dave Wile
