    Its the hard alpine living Sika that are taking the brunt of our and others' miss-management. Not their fat-cat cousins wandering the low land streets. :)

    grandpamac liked post by Cordite On thread : Is it Pressure or Powder Capacity?
    Simplification: Heavy and slower is easier on the barrel, ok short range, and better far downrange. Light and fast is hard on the barrel, excellent at short range, but loses it far downrange. So...
