    Equally spectacular is dropping a cigarette lighter into an open fire. I can really see why they dont like you carrying them on airplanes.

    Do you need any reloading gear? Some odds and ends floating around here. Even with slugs you can't technically use it on any DOC land, can you?

    Keep the engagement distance under 30m and buckshot is fine. But pull the trigger at targets 40-50m away and yes 90% its a waste of time. Slugs out to 50m can be lethal if you put in the practise.

    You could use an epoxy glue rather than heat/solder/etc to attach the sights. If you want to change the glued on sights later, a bit of moderate heat will be enough to remove the epoxy.

    My understanding was that the Barnes relief rings actually lower pressure? Their published data appears to be right up there with the warmest cup and core data in manuals.
