Everybody is different, with strict dieting, the right supps, the above can be done. Also depends on genetics, metabolism and other stuff.

what did your diet look like during these 4 months bro?
and how did u stick to your diet? i personally have a hard time sticking to my diet due to lack of time, i miss meals and so on.. u have any general suggestions that help me sticking with the diet more strict?

Get some good meal replacement drinks for the times that you miss a regular meal. Also, make sure you have plenty of protein in your system.

i just went on a natural mass cycle which consisted with a lot of peanut butter/bananas and meat and eggs. I was taking protein shakes (mass factor eas) betagen, phosphagen both eas products as well and nox2 pills from pinnacle.... when it was all said and done i must have gained about 13lbs in about 6 weeks. working out real hard and a gallon of water a day. give it a try im sure youll swell up...

i went from 175 to 187 in about a month but i had been stuck on 175 for 5 months while my strength had increaced. I grow in short spurts then stop for a while. i seem to have slowed for a while, consuming 3500kal a day roughly.

Ten pounds a month is real. But it is really hard to say exactly what % is muscle and is hard to sustain for more than a month or two.

If I put on 1 pound a month and my waist size is the same or less, I am happy. Thus, in threee years, I have gone from 180 (22% BF) 210 (10.5 BF).

Bulking for me is more the exercise combinations that I do, i.e. back heavy compound lifts... when summer rolls around, carbs go down and rep go into the 8-12 ranges will more cable exercises.

The key word in your questions is MUSCLE and the answer depends on AGE, EXPERIENCE and GENETICS, but if you have 15 pounds of muscle more at the end of the year, EVERY year, you are doing things right.

i'm not a big believer in protein shakes, but right after i workout, i drink down two shakes, 100g of carbs and 50g of protein, i also eat alot of red meat, chicken, and lots of veggies and oatmeal, no bread or pasta, no sugars, it's a bitch sometimes when i want to drink a mountain dew, and coffee doesn't taste as good without cream and sugar, but you have to eat lean to put on lean mass without winding up looking like the michelen man, you just have to find a way to always have food available to you, i keep a chicken and brown rice mix i make with me at all times, just in case i can't sit down to eat at work for a long time

I gain slowly now, made the mistake of gaining quickly a few years back. Also you eventually get to weights where you can't gain quickly regardless
