[QUOTE="Dean2, post: 2688116, member: 26077"] I enjoyed this thread and very glad to hear the OP had a great result. I will say however, that the modern internet has caused people to worry WAY, WAY WAY too much about bullets velocity, caliber and the like. Maybe it is because so many don't get very many chances at live game that they don't want to take any chances at messing up, but realistically, we have been killing stuff for 400 years with powder and lead, and pointy sticks of all sorts for long before that. Stuff dies if you make a hole in the right place. The most incompetent round we use today is vastly superior to any pointy stick and 99% of anything that was leading edge that we used just 100 years ago. If you focus on placement of the hole, pretty much everything from Mastadons to gophers are going to die. [/QUOTE]
