all bang flops . . .
dont know if anyone saw the .50S&W Contender on TM . . it got pulled by TM for some reason . . but if it comes back can someone buy it, i would but a BIG spend up on optics / project rifle means i cant . . sadly
that looks ever so gory.....good shit bud keep up the good work.
Nice shooting Rossi, impressive damage at subsonic velocities! Must get around to buying some trailboss and running some in mine.
Looks impressive, now to upsize and shoot a couple of stags, watching with intent

just a bit gory . . . i wouldnt put it on Facebook
that old saying a picture is better than a thousand words comes to mind . . it is a graphic demonstration of what a Big Flatpoint can do even when its traveled some distance and lost some of what little speed it started with.
its not some super slippery AMax, more a flying brick, so some people won't be beleivers unless you show them the pics . . . . & even then some wont get it.
if i have time i will try for to put the bullet thru a leg bone . . . its not a must but it sure helps if you can to do maximum damage.

a bit off topic . . . that 50 S&W contender i mentioned earlier thats on TM has certainly got my interest, some seriously BIG bullets / designs / molds out there that may work in it.

looking at that rifle it just screams great bush gun as it is.....might be quieter than expected stranger things have been known to happen.
Took the 45/70 to work today to check some new loads.
Got a much earlier test than expected when 3 of these guys came wandering down the road I was checking for slip and water damage.

14.6gn trail boss behind 345gn cast was giving 1075fps
plurry AWESOME way to test her out.......make sure to have apple sauce on hand for the juicy roast pork....
now I really really want one.
After being inspired by @rossi.45 and this thread I have got the big and slow bug.
Got a mold from CBE in Australia and cast up these 405 grain bullets after doing quite a bit of reading and research;

Loaded up a batch with 13 grains of Trailboss and got them going 990fps.
Went for a walk today and got a young fallow for the freezer, was only a 45 yard shot but dropped instantly.

Not real happy with the red dot so have got a leupold 4x33 with CDS turret coming and will get a suppressor put on once I have a few dollars saved up
