    A pronghorn with an iron sighted six gun is a bucket list item of mine.
    Paper targets aren't your friends. They won't lie for you and they don't care if your feelings get hurt.

    I've got a few with revolvers over the years. I kind of suspect they really aren't dead though, since I didn't use a mangalum rifle and shoot them at a thousand yards.
    Good going!
    The solid soft lead bullet is undoubtably the best and most satisfactory expanding bullet that has ever been designed. It invariably mushrooms perfectly, and never breaks up. With the metal base that is essential for velocities of 2000 f.s. and upwards to protect the naked base, these metal-based soft lead bullets are splendid.

    Forget everything you know about loading jacketed bullets. This is a whole new ball game!

    That is some fine shooting, Sixshot! Your narrative is VERY WELL PRESENTED. A fine read.
    I don't paint bullets. I like Black Rifle Coffee. Sacred cows are always fair game. California is to the United States what Syria is to Russia and North Korea is to China/South Korea/Japan--a Hermit Kingdom detached from the real world and led by delusional maniacs, an economic and social basket case sustained by "foreign" aid so as to not lose military bases.

    Fantastic!

    There are extremely few hunters who have the honor of saying that they have killed an antelope with an iron sighted sixgun. Especially after a stalk and not just a target of opportunity.

    Great story, pics, gear, etc. You are the ONLY person I have personally ever known to have taken an antelope or Muley with a 327 mag.

    Yet another great write up and when your sixgun barks it most always seems there is something edible lying dead on the ground.
