Sorry,I couldn't resist a discussion of this SMACKDOWN article I read!! Read a current article in G&A by Sam Fadala proclaiming his exploits with the 540 gr 45-70 at 1550 fps on charging hippo, charging Buff,etc.Apparently a broad meplat bullet now gives this caliber mystical killing properties at slow velocities!! http://www.garrettcartridges.com/products.asp My concern is some deluded hunter is going to try this may get hurt or killed!!Betcha Sam had someone backing him up with a real stopping rifle-- Think I want something more potent on a charging Ele or Buff than a 45-70-- Or maybe I'm overgunned with my Double!! Do all us wimps now just need 45-70 Doubles and Garrets magical bullets?[satire] Gentlemen, your thoughts on G&A's article?? |
