Great fun thread. What strikes me is that I can't recall very many such tall tales during my 50 years of shooting. One does stand out though. Old Idaho potato farmer transplant to California once told me that the .22 Hornet was so powerful that it could shoot clear through a railroad track. I supposed he meant the web. I just nodded and went on to deliver the news papers hanging on my handlebars. Imagine taking out a railroad train with a .22 Hornet, maybe the Pentagon chose the wrong .22 cartridge.
