I guess most people think bullets hit an imaginary wall at 300 yards and fall to the ground?


Yes sir I agree, have several in the safe, but most are pretty heavy or got more recoil than I want right now, shot my skeleton stock ruger in 260 and after 3 shots with 129gr superformance made my shoulder tender for a couple days, funny thing though after I shot 3 hogs didn’t feel sore at all lol, got a muzzle brake coming for my 308 to try but it’s pretty heavy, have wanted a surgeon action and have talked to John Beanland a few times but he was 6 months behind and I ran across a 308 with surgeon action and bottom metal, McMillan stock, and either Krieger or Bartlein barrel that Beanland put together with only couple hundred rounds, then broke my collar bone before I got to shoot it, I look at it a lot but when I get the brake gonna try it. It’s pretty heavy too.

Had rather be judged by 12 than carried by 6.

Your 9mm should expand but my 45 wont shrink.
