[QUOTE="357Mag, post: 1845705, member: 106883"] All - Walking w/ a buddy who was tote'n a Win M-52 w/ a 4X mounted on it, and I had my Rem 870 16ga. We were out looking for opportunistic shots on junk birds in the area. Looked up and pointed out a starling in a tree some 110yd away. My buddy mounted his .22LR, and was prepping to take the shot standing. I started to rib him a bit, about the unlikely hood that he could...... Rifle goes crack, and the bird drops dead out of the tree. I note a second bird land on the same limb, about 2ft further out. Non-plused, I launched right back into another jab at him, and ...."crack "...... bird #2 falls from the same tree; dead. We live, we learn. Out w/ another shooting buddy w/ his brand new .44MAg Super Blackhawk, loaded w/ some handloads I had made for him. 24gr 2400 under a 240SWC and LP Mag primer. We were at some nearly unused rifle range, and I thought it'd be fun to see if he could hit a can thrown in the air. Without warning, I launch the can.... and my buddy makes this just awefull looking swing up of the revolver, muzzle pointed at an angle above his forehead. With his 2 arms not even completely locked, he wings-off the shot; and blows 2 holes in the can before it even starts down. Enjoying the fun of all that, I dare him to try it again; and sling off a second can. My buddy takes an even more ungainly looking noodle-arm shot, recoil taking his outstretched arms and the revolver clean up over the top of his head. Sure enough... another double-holed can, before I was even able to put a period on the sentence ! With regards, 357Mag [/QUOTE]
