    2400 and lots of it.

    YEEEEEEEEHAAAAAAAA!

    Probably needs a gentle launch to keep it intact, may even want to
    go to something even slower maybe 4227??
    If it was easy, anybody could do it.

    Small boolit, large sabot, big-bore revolver.....I'm thinking baby powder!

    Jdgabbard's very own boolit boxes pattern!

    GOA and FPC have done more in the last decade than your NRA has done in it's entire existence... Support the ones that actually do something for you.
