Not that any of that will make any difference to you, BFR. Because you're insane. But I thought I'd mention it anyway.


A little off subject, but I hope that shooting handguns at long range is not the definition of insanity.

If so, then there are a bunch of us on this board. One of the most enjoyable shooting days I have experienced was with RJM busting badger mounds at 500 yds and beyond with our 41 mag revolvers.

An N Frame Smith can do surprising things. And even a novice pistolero could put any man in mortal fear at several hundred yards with a short bit of practice.

As for practical applications........I have a hard time imagining the need (for me)to ever shoot at anything less than fifty yards away.

Could be a matter of longitude.
