Has anyone mentioned paper patching nail guns yet?
How about how to build reduced loads (e.g., chicken killers) with a bore diameter PPB?
Or ... "Anybody ever paper patch a 45/70 bullet made from SPG lube, to shoot pigeons inside a barn?"
Retired...TWICE. Now just raisin' cows and livin' on borrowed time.
Would paper patching my shotgun shot give better patterning?

I have used wax slugs cast from beeswax in a 5/16" reamed hole in 1/2" plate to kill starlings inside barn with a primer powered Mosin-Nagant..really waxes e'm!
Save your ammo, Montana. Get those pigeons frantically winging around in the barn on a moonless night and flick OFF the lights! When the thumping noise stops...hit the lights and walk around and scoop them up in your fishing net. A couple of good buddies and a few cold beers will make it a night to remember
Be careful about lead shot/dust if you run chickens or ducks in your barn area.
SHuck those breasts out and barbeque them or smoke them. Takes a bunch for a meal but are good eating. Some butter fry them shread them and a milk gravey over biscuts. Good eating if you can get enough for a meal. A decent shot load does wonders on them also. Go in after dark with a strong flashlight. Blinds them and they stay put
Back in the 50's a friend and I used to catch pigeons in barns with a flashlight and dip net on long cane poles and haul them to the Lincoln Park Gun Club on Lake Michigan and get $2. a dozen for them.

Back in the 60's we used to climb down and walk the catwalk at night on the Railroad bridge crossing the Mississippi River and catch them, then clip one wing and stake them out for live decoys. Our folks would drive out to farms that had pigeons and we would hunt all day. If it was a bad day you usually shot the decoys.
Yes, do that, guys...
Make fun of members coming here for your expertise, trying to learn some minor points in a lost art.
That's a sure-fire way of getting them to stick around....

Can I Paper Patch a 50 Cal BMG ?
Isn't an Abrams Tank Armor Piercing Round just a glorified Paper Patched (Sabot) round ?

I would just like to ask -
WHOM does our Current Government represent, anyway ? !
It sure as Heck doesn't represent ME ! How about you ?
Seems to be just a Big Mafia run by the current set of criminals in office.
Have we EVER been this close to losing our Country ? !
