Fired a .700 nitro express today...

[Dirtman]

So I spent $80 on one bullet to get the experience of being hit by a truck...

I'm gonna go lay down for a while and maybe call some orthopedic surgeons in the morning...

I could of loaned you my BFH for half that price.

what was the target?

 

[Dirtman]

what was the target?

Based on how poorly I aimed, and where the gun ended up after the shot... I'd say the international space station took the brunt of the damage?

Seriously, what are these rounds even for? I mean I get the original idea was big game hunting but a .50BMG can kill any living creature on earth and doesn't kick nearly that hard. Plus I believe the guy said the gun was worth around $35,000 dollars and is only accurate under 100 yards, by 200 yards it's in the dirt.

 

[Roert42]

Yeah, but it’s called Nitro Express

 

[Eddo Rogue]

think they are also called elephant guns

 

[Uncle Gump]

I shot a 45-70 out of a Thompson Contender once...

I have no need to shoot anything that violent and obnoxious ever again.

 

[sgtsandman]

I have cowboy action rounds for my 45-70. Ever since my shoulder dislocation, modern powder loads hurt too much.

 

[Roert42]

I'm thinking about getting a revolver in 45-100 for a daily carry.
