Instead, late in the day, after a couple of blown chances, they finally got on one dumb enough to stand still long enough for Larry to get ready to shoot. Potterfield handed the roller to the guide and borrowed an available bolt gun because the deer had walked off enough that it was too far to shoot with the Roller. The distance? 140 yards. With a bolt gun.

I couldn't believe it. A fraud, and a shot that was a gimme. Broadside at 140 yards, and he can't shoot a Roller well enough to kill a deer at 140 yards? That was the day I quit buying anything from Midway.


Haven't bought anything from them in well over 10 years.
Just drifted over to their on-line "Catalogue" and checked out "Gunsmithing Supplies"
What a screwed up debacle, and complete dog's breakfast !
