I saw the photographs!
Carmy bagged a huge 46 inch buff with his trusty Marlin 45-70!!!
This daggaboy would put many of the sorry looking buffs we see here put to shame!
Way to go Carmy!
Carmello sent me an email and wanted me to wish everyone on Accurate Reloading a safe and happy holidays.

Mickey1I heard he got a permit issued by the President of Botswana himself. They are old friends from Oxford when Carm was a Roads Scholar.
He even used the old Black Powder loads just to prove the 45-70 has always been a DG Rifle.

Frank MartinezWell as much as I hate to do this.
Everyone please refrain from making this an ugly thing. Lets just enjoy a successful hunter with a wonderful trophy. Thank you all.
DTH would you mind posting those photos.
Thanks,
Frank

500grainsIs there any possibility that Carmelo has hijacked the account of DesertTrophyHunts?

You know, I wondered that myself...either that or maybe he is off his medication?
I'm sure the trophy picture taken with the President of Botswana is forthcoming.

500grainsHi Carmelo (posting as both Deserttrophyhunts and as THE RUMORMILL). I was wondering what handle you were using these days.
Moderators, care to put this thread into the electronic dust bin?

Guys, I just got a call from Drummond Lindsey who posts as DesertTrophyHunts. The post made above was not from him. For that matter, a few of the most recent posts are not from Drummond.
After Drummond registered on worldshooter.com, SOMEONE took his username and password (same login as on AR) and logged in to AR and made the post above.
Could one of our moderators suspend DTH's posting right until this is sorted out? (Requested by DTH through me, feel free to call Drummond (970) 227-4222 to confirm this.)
For what it is worth, I have known Drummond for quite a while. This is not a joke.

Wendell ReichOops, you beat me to it.

Wendell ReichCarmelo has obviously not met Drummond. 6'4" and 250.
Drummond has offered to donate all funds from the UFC Cage match if Carmelo agrees to go in the ring with him. Fight to be held at SCI.

DRGWell I don't know if Carmello has hijacked another user account, but I do know that both Rumor Mill and Desert Trophy hunts are both posting from the same IP and both a/c are now suspended until I can figure out what is up.
Whether or not they are being used by Carmello or someone trying to pretend they are being used by carmello, the posts are clearly to start something that is NOT conducive to the purposes of this site.

If you haven't already lets hope you now ban Carmelo as a troll. Other members using multiple logins have been banned for this behaviour in the past. In the interets of consistency and fairness.
PS Only a very low individual would do what may have been done to DTH. If the "ring match" goes ahead I think I would have to attend SCI this year after all!

ErikDI'm sorry to hear about what happened to you Drummond.
It's kind of funny in a way. When I registered over at worldwanker.com myself 2 days ago to reply to the insane accusations being posted there, I almost used the same password that I use here. Then I thought about it for a second, and decided that it was too big a chance to take. Knowing how Carmen operates...
Looks like my suspicions were correct, and lo and behold; Carmen abused another innocent AR member. As usual... He needs to get back on his medication. Another "strange" thing is that our trip website is now "blocked" somehow. And it wasn't yesterday. Can't get past the front page.
An odd coincidence? Or something that a computer wiz like Carmen could pull off for to create more havoc?

After meeting Drummond a couple of weeks ago, I would have to agree with you. I imagine Carmello would be called away on an emergency by the president of Botswana just prior to the match.
