You know, I can still get a case of beer for under $20, despite everything it takes to make and ship it, does cost more....

It was. I never picked up a SPP 45 ACP brass case before 2001 or 2002. The only SPP 45 acp I know of before that was non reloadable aluminum cases, made it a non issue for them.

I don't carry revolvers much because I can often have more ammunition, in a lighter, more compact semi. Back in the '80's Charter Arms and Federal came up with the "new", 9mm Federal round, a rimmed 9mm. Turns out it was so close to the 38 S&W, the backwards compatibility with weak revolvers...

Winchester has been making both sizes for more than two decades. Different size flash holes too.

Might get a great progressive out of them yet. ;) 2020.

No one looking for high speed would use those HKS speed loaders. SL comp II or III is a better choice but you won't keep up or beat Jerry with them. With the moon clip guns you open the cylinder, dump the empty moon clip and "throw" the fresh one in. If you try and "put" them in, things begin...

If pneumatics count, this is ~ 43,000 ft/lbs of energy (44 lbs ~ 250 fps). 217.49mm https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X9sPuZkwiJY

Dry fire is a worthwhile activity. If you want to clear 8" plates at 25 yards dry fire at small targets. Instead of say a light switch cover, being your "target", use one of the screws that holds it in place. Aim small/shoot small.

Yep, not sure about dangerous game but 1" of steel doesn't stop them. Not the largest in diameter but the most powerful, I have.

Now you have me wondering about using a torx bit to remove blades (leatherman) while flying and putting them back once I get there? Would think every one at TSA would still "see pocket knife".

Some people just never want to learn how.

You couldn't zero a 50 yard target, still shooting low?

Most generations are like that. Some good, some bad and answers change, depending on whom you ask.

Opposite for me. Not sure what my record for # of shots needed to zero is but its a lot more than how I do it these days. I keep it pretty simple. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PG13s1bj-jw

I would say I am more brand disloyal. I'll try lots of stuff once but if it's garbage, it is all but impossible to get me back. Hose me once and it's your fault, get me twice and it's my fault..
