That was one slow Monday. Would you lot please go out and burn some powder, or at the very least go sniff a few shotgun shells.  On a more serious note, you guys in the US have the best gun laws in the world, proof of that lies in these lists. I wish you all the best of luck in preserving the freedoms that allow you to shoot most anything you want freely and without all the nonsense and hoop jumping we are stuck with.

I get the distinct impression that some of you bastards are just bragging because you do not have restrictive gun laws. It is worse than a rich kid eating cake in front of a poor kid. Tell me, do you feel good??   | |||

This is the wrong question. This is all what normal hunters would do. Now, how many of you have gone hunting crows and pigeons with a converted Ruger #1 from 458 Winchester magnum to 460 Weatherby and 375H&H? How many of you are brainless enough to try shooting an unexploded bomb with a 223? Then finding that a 223 would not penetrate the bomb case. Then drive 60 miles to get a 375H&H with solids to blow the bomb up?  | |||
