My .50 percussion Hawken, that is.
Found out my rod and gun club allows members to hunt their 268 acres. I asked the range safety officer " Where do folk go?" He said " Over there" so I went " over there".
Walked in MAYBE 60 yards and up pops a happy meal at about 40 yards. Broadside and staring a hole through me.
BOOMflop.
My go to load. 70 grains of 3f Swiss, a .45 cal 250 grain XTP in a Harvester crush rib sabot. Chrono'd velocity is 1610 fps.
