    Got to shot one at cans in Arusha. Wow recoil was like a solid push. Shot four rounds and could have easily done ten.

    Currently have .223 rattlegun, 6.5TCU, 6.5SAUM and 375WSM and a variety of shotties in a few different gauges.
    However I am contemplating pulling the barrel off the 375 and turning it into something else..............just because.
