    Awesome.
    Just a word if caution.
    A 45 is a small caliber and doesn't carry the energy some might think.
    I shoot a 50 cal Flintlock and a 50 cal ball is only 180 grains. Travelling at sub 1500fps (which I'm guessing at as I haven't worked out how to get my Lab to track it) it's in my opinion at the lower end of the energy scale required for big animals.
    Overkill is still dead.
