    I`m in I think, my Sharps 45-70 and maybe my Hawken plains rifle with .20" .50cal barrel should fit the bill, but no rapid fire. If its over a few days camp up with my s/c caravan if that's ok.

    7 x 57 !!! would you like us to serve lattes on the day ?

    So after speaking to stug, it looks like we should make it closer distances.

    Max 100, most shots under 50.

    1 stage with shooting sticks
    max 4 shots per string
    baloons
    Good job you only insulted 7x57 owners and not that 270 crowd you will be the one who wants Soy milk with his latte yes bwan?
    It's all fun and games till Darthvader comes along
    I respect your beliefs but don't impose them on me.

    Lets put it this way, bring whatever you want. If you bring something small you may or may not get some ribbing. And only those with REAL calibers will qualify for the BIG Kahuna award

    Wasn't there a 350 Remington magnum on here for sale. Now that'd be a good caliber.

    Velocity is thrilling,but diameter does the real killing.

    If I fire 20 rounds thru my 500 or 450/400 double, I won’t have a big Kahuna!! Unless that means “fucked shoulder?”
    Haven’t fired my new #2 musket, my 577/450 is ok
    Boom, cough,cough,cough
