I got a Uberti 1866 Winchester in .44 Special this last year and it is almost like shooing a BB gun. No recoil and a looping trajectory. That said, I can put slugs offhand in a deer sized target out to a little more than a 100 yards almost as fast as I can work the lever and pull the trigger.

Exactly...

I have a couple of Garands I like shooting that way... just point and shoot. It ain't rocket science.


If you are not actively engaging EVERY enemy you encounter... you are allowing another to fight for you... and that is cowardice... plain and simple.
