    Levers are fast but there may be a few too many zeros after the decimal point .00079 seconds for 3 rounds works out to 227848 rounds per minute.

    I'll put up a box of piss to the first person to get 3 off in .79 of a second (with a lever gun). I want to see it though.
    Going out to start practicing now, do i have to hit anything or is it rounds down the tube? Waikato will be fine

    I was just joking, sorry. I own both of his books.

    Gimp is only disrepecting him because he's shy about having learnt how to shoot properly from reading it in one of James Passmore's books. He was utterly hopeless before.

    I didn't have a stopwatch with me at the time, so that is only an estimate. But I am sticking to it.

    What's this second book you talk of, I only own one.

    I'd like a 94 in my safe.
    Shut up, get out & start pushing!

    Youtube Ruby Redsmoke - Kiwi shooter in SASS. She's also the womens world champion Cowboy Action shooter. Prob beat that score easily.

    The world Mens champion Spencer Hoglund (lead dispencer) is way faster. Watch his lever action speed at 2.00 in the vid https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X3_kKr9RdQ0
