But of course, if one looks good then 305 of them all standing in phalanx looks even better. Albeit, these are only teenie .45-70s this time. Save an elk, shoot a cow.

That is the fugliest bullet/cartridge I've ever seen..What's it for anyway? A good principle to guide me through life: “This is all I have come to expect, standard lackluster performance. Trust nothing, believe no one and realize it will only get worse…”
