    old school is the single break open .45/70 with crude open sights cast lead projectiles and homerolled black powder.
    Haha with a 500 grain projectile doing 1400 FPS that will take it head off even if it misses by two inches, what damage that must have done from a 577/450 when hit in the arm, leg or shoulder, forget the rest!!
