I hadn't heard this one before ,but during WW1 when they were requisitioning big game rifles against German snipers who were hiding behind thick steel plate, Richard ''Dickie'' Cooper brought down three German Albatross Fighter planes with a H and H double 450 Nitro ,''Dropped the first one like a Pheasant ,then another after him ,then reloaded and dropped another '' .You never though a double rifle would be so good at dropping ''birds'' !
