RC, hope I don't thread drift too much, but I wanted to show you all the Woodman Arms Patriot. They use a Brux 1-18 barrel and they are .452's (don't kick me off the Roundtable).

I had to monkey around a bit sizing the 300 grain Parker's down to fit my bore since this rifle was meant for smokeless..

Ended up hunting with the 60 grain load this past season.

Took a couple coyotes and a meat deer for an old family friend.

Finally got around to shooting the last two loads I had left over before I cleaned it up and decided to check it with the Garmin.

So I guess what I am saying is the little Woodman thinks its a mini 458 Winchester grin

Sorry for the thread drift, but I know some of you all appreciate odd stuff now and again and it is a .45 caliber and alllllllmost a .458 laugh
