    Has anyone ever seen one of these in NZ? I'm curious to know if an NZ gunsmith would go out on a limb to make one (just curious). I'd never heard of it to be honest. A bunch of questions come to mind though:
    - Is it the queen of barrel burners?
    - What of the dies? American custom perhaps...
    - Would it damage gongs of any hardness I wonder. Is there a boffin that can tell me the ft-lb inpact of a 140gn projectile with an MV of 3780ft/s??? This is hilarious
    mikee and res like this.
