Winchester mod.70 super grade 280 Rem. swiftshot 04/21/24
I won this rifle at a raffle held to raise funds for the local shooting team-the Rock chuckers clay shooting team,during a shoot in Libby Montana.It is a "1 of 500".The shoot was during the summer of 2019 and I had not shot it.I found a scope I had lying around, bought some mounts and set it up for sighting in.I bought some Remington brass,Lee collet dies, 140gr TSX bullets,and IMR 4350 powder.

Here is a 100yd target fired off the bench with the first 5 rounds I ever fired from it.I had no difficulty bore sighting it and one round was all I needed to get near the bullseye.These are three shots at 100yds.

There will probably be a civil suit and settlement off a deprivation of rights claim.

He is just about guaranteed to not have to pay a penny towards any civil payout due to qualified immunity and that would likely hold true if he dislocated her shoulder or even amputated her arm at the shoulder.

The amputation scenario would actually increase his chances of being granted QI.

Oh I know external ballistics quite well which is why I’m curious as to what cowboybart considers “HOT” if 1450fps is merely warm from a handgun ? I also have to laugh when someone says that 1250fps isn’t enough but 100fps more IS enough….😂….or a hardcast bouncing off and deflecting from a bears rib. Bears are big critters but their bones are NOT exceptionally big or heavy when compared to some other animals.

FWIW….Phil’s 147gr hardcast was doing approximately 1100fps, not 1350fps but it still got the job done….without bouncing off or deflecting. In fact it went THROUGH and was found just under the hide on the off side!

So again….if 1450fps from a handgun is “warm” then what does it take to reach the vaunted “HOT” status?

Like I said in my first post on this thread, I truly appreciate Phil’s real world experience! My question is directed at this thread’s comedic expert, cowboybart. 😉

Is anyone running Lapua 222 brass? RickF 04/21/24
I have an older 222 Rem inbound, and I’m putting together an order for bushing dies, brass and such.

Is anyone using Lapua brass in 222, and if so, could they provide an outside neck diameter for a loaded round please? I am not sure which size bushing to order. Thanks.

Re: Phil Shoemaker - A Bear Pistol Question: ruraldoc 04/21/24
Thanks to Phil for sharing your experiences here.

For what it’s worth, I have killed many wild hogs with handguns testing lots of different loads.

The best 9mm loads are far more effective than anything smaller and kill nearly as quickly as the largest handgun loads.

My German Shepherds would have scared him away before he got close enough to touch anybody. The fedex and UPS men run back to the truck when they make a delivery with the.dogs inside the house. Just in case the window breaks.

Re: The great 458 Winchester. Everyone should own one at least once Riflecrank 04/21/24
After the above shocking exhibition I await the larger diameter "Lyman Inspired" AM 46-467L.
It might "hardcast" into a 450-ish-grainer sizable to .461" diameter, PC-painted (blue) and plain-based.
Then there is that strange 46-502D that might be closer to 480-ish-grainer sizable to .461" diameter, also PC-painted and plain-based.

Enaa baasee' to Sir Darryl for the indexing.

Sir Smallfry, get a No. 5 Sporter from McGowen or PAC-NOR, 1:14" twist.
I am planning to do the same to a Ruger Hawkeye.
Was thinking of finally daring to do a 20" but now
maybe 21" like Phil Shoemakers Ol'Ugly ?
I have a rifle stuck in the gunsmith pipeline,
may need to find another smith ...

Sir Jerry,
Hopefully all was peaceful in OK on the latest April 19.
The two-legged vipers probably steer clear of OK when they find out you are keeping the peace there.

It's all a giant, super sophisticated, crime organization. We no longer have government. Their only function is disempowering and fleecing the people at large.

Phil believed the 9mm with flat point Hardcastle would work and he proved correct.

Headed to the Red Bluff Roundup yesterday with a buddy. Stopped at his friends annual BBQ before the rodeo and they were passing them around.

Damnit if they weren't really good!

Who knew? LOL

Perfect weather for the Roundup too. 80* with just a little breeze.

Wild horse races were my fav as usual.

I preferred the old days when a mass murderer's particulars were mere matters of public record for the news media to report on and criminologists to write articles and books about.

The faster you push a hard cast the harder it needs to be for top accuracy. I thought that the powered coat might allow you to get away with it but it did not. I believe that at least .460" diameter would also aid accuracy
