I will open the anti rust storage bag and inspect my 1895 for cleanliness.


They will vote our way into socialism, We will have to shoot our way out.

Every major horror in the world was perpetrated in the name of altruism.

Just how big is Aroostook County you ask?

According to Hornady, MV is 2,200 FPS. I have not yet chrono'd the loads.

Shot him at 30 paces (25 yds)

Shot him 6 times before he succumbed.

None of the bullets exited.

ya!

I still enjoy the father of the 405, the original 40: the 40-72…

Looks like at least 1 got thru to his lungs, the others hit shoulder and leg bones?

Damn, have to wonder how many of those 20ga slugs that you were considering he would have soaked up if it took 6 .405s...
