    as far as expectations go theyre based on experience so i have no illusions there . . . i chose .45s because they dump the animal to the ground with more authority . . others may have different mileage


    bit of a ramble here . . . recently took a house guest for a walk up the hill to knock over some Goats, keen young fella, good guy . . . told him how and where to shoot them, when not to . . . well he had some cripples that needed finnishing. The problem was he was still thinking like he had a high velocity cartridge, shoot them in the big bit stuff . . . but it wasnt his fault, it was the subs, fckn useless, thats his story.

    That was my lesson, you can tell people the where and the how but they stay at their default settings mostly . . . i can tell you how it works for me, listen if you want but dont tell me your observations are better than mine based 3 or 4 animals


    as i said earlier . . . have a look at the picture of the Fallow, what does that tell you @Friwi about the bullets performance ?
