Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire 2013 24HOURCAMPFIRE HOG HUNT

Nah, I've been trying to find KIK locally, without success. I'm gonna order the heavier bullets & powder tomorrow. Today I tried some changes, a lube cookie and Swiss FFg, and had some success getting the fouling to stay soft, but the accuracy was no good. In fact it was a lot worse than the Swiss FFFg.

I did get a Red River Beech front sight, and it did seem to get me on target, so that at least is better.

I think you ought take some of those water barrels, stand them up, un-band the lids, and see how high the hydraulic effect will launch them

10-4 on the accuracy surgery, hope ya get her bustin centers, LOL on the sky launch.

Here's some old technology, and new technology.



I slugged the bore, with one of the 300gr bullets, to see how well they fit. The new technology is the Nikon 105 VR Micro-Nikkor, used for the picture

Nice, I get the old, but am skeered of the new.

Gunner

George...are you still looking for a shotgun for your son?

TELL ME YOU HAVE VIDEO OF THIS.

Gunner is bringin' his 500 Nitro double to kick the schit outta me Ask him nice (stupidly) and he'll let you get the schit kicked outta you too

They say a smart man learns from his mistakes, but a wise man learns from another man's mistakes.

I'm going to feign wisdom on this one. You go ahead and shoot that Jap knee mortar off YOUR shoulder. I'll watch.

Awww c'mon, ya KNOW ya wanna light at least ONE off just ta say ya did

Well.....maybe.

Heck I wanna shoot his 8 bore. After that everything else oughta be easy.

It may be interesting, though, with 500 gr bullets out of a 7 lb .45-90, with a curved metal buttplate.

No video, I'm eeelectronically challenged, but I did manage to catch all 4 bullets, LOL.

At impact the steel threaded small cap pulled it's threads and danced by me on the right rolling across the field, the main banded lid blew off, the drum split at the seam and big dogknots were put in the bottom of all 4 drums.

The 458 WM with the 500 gr PP Woodleighs really surprised me with their penetration, at 2175 fps, thats a mean mother.

Gunner

LOL ET, I'm gonna bring the 505 Gibbs, 577 Nitro, and 8-Bore too, there will be plenty of punishment to go around if one so chooses.

CT, their not bad, just a big push. lol

Tex, I will have the speed loaders loaded light for the 8-bore, if someone wants to step it up a bit, I can load the mid-range load up to 350 gr charge under the 850 gr round ball.

The full bore 400 gr charge of 2F Swiss really sucks to shoot. lol

Gunner

How many of you old [bleep] are going back home with Retinal Detachment ?

NO [bleep]' way am I EVER gonna light off another 505 Gibbs!!!! EVER!!

Nah, we'll be fine, long as none of the doubles...double

while all you he-men pound your chests over the artillery pieces, safariman's spear head for his hog hunt just showed up on my door step have a kid i need to show it to tonight before i fire it over to him.....

SNEAKY way of sayin' yer gonna take it out and stab sumpthin wid it tonite

nothin' round here i really can, course i could stand in the back of the truck with it while we tear down a stubble field after a 'yote

I will bring one of my Frog Gigs for you to use if you want.
