The bullies were gathered all around you. Their ringleader, named Bootis-Bootis, points a discourteous in your face.
“Haw haw!” he bleats. “You look like the kind of amateurish nitwit who could never shoot 1,000 yards with his 6.5 Creedmoor rifle.”
Your mother taught you never to engage with bullies. But the heat building up beneath your collar has become too much to bear. “Oh yeah, Bootis-Bootis?” you reply, calmly. “Then prepare to eat your hat, because watch this.”
You pull out your 6.5 Creedmoor rifle, spot the nearest 1,000-yard target (which is easy since you are already at a long-distance rifle range), and let one rip. Precisely 1.55 seconds later, a new hole appears in the target where there wasn’t one previously.
“B-b-b-b-ut,” Bootis-Bootis stammers, and then demands: “How’d you do that?”
“Because, Bootis-Bootis,” you explain. “I have the good smarts to choose Winchester Super Match. My ammunition is loaded in America using all choice components, including match-grade primers and powder that assure consistent chamber pressure and 2,710 fps muzzle velocity out of a 24” barrel, as well as optimum 140 grain boat tail hollow point projectiles that are every bit as balanced as they are low-drag in profile (0.291 G7 BC). When I shoot, I don’t do it to miss, and my ammunition follows suit. Also … your name is stupid.”
For the first time in his 87 years of life, Bootis-Bootis realizes that his name actually is very stupid. This epiphany causes him to reconsider the direction he has chosen in life, and become a better person.
