Re: Leopard Gun build in .577NE and 12Ga 3" Mag

Gents: that is a BOGUS advertisement, fraught with enough "plausible deniability" to keep a team of lawyers busy for years. Just consider this; IF as they say slugs were being used to take {sic} dangerous game in africa, would it not be wise to post pictures and testimonials like Weatherby used to do with their old "Weatherby gudie" publication? Further, let's examine the issues the 458 Winchester Magnum had with poor penetration.

That was a 500gr slug with a sectional density wayy oast the .300 mark (that being the minimum standard recommended for DG) that when velocities fell uner 2000 fps, penetration was abysmal. SO, ask yourselves if that was the case, how on EARTH can a slug, no matter how hard and with a much lower velocityof less than 1500 fps be able to penetrate sufficiently to reach the vitals of tough, thick skinned game? Gentlemen often-times there is a very thin dividing line between the sublime and the ridiculous and this issue obliterated said line. jorge
