Now for the bullets from Barnes in about 3 weeks and I will be farther down the road. Loaded ammo and shoot some critters.

Seeing as how there is all this drama over the 50 cal rifles, the 475 Turnbull seems like the way to go for a big lever gun.

Has most likely been posted, but a picture of a loaded cartridge in comparison to a common round would be cool to look at with description of bullet and details of cartridge as I've no idea of the ballistics. Have been entertaining the thoughts of powerful but handy lever gun so I'm interested details. Thanks, Rodney.

DOug, given the effectivemess of the handgun version of the 475, no dought that the rifle version will be as well
