Colorado,

I don't think they're lying turds....just that maybe they are using longer bbls or heavier powder charges. Their data is possible I suppose...just not pleasant or necessary really.

Haven't Chrono'd the 8-bore yet...nor do I really plan to I guess. It shoots as it should and I am pretty confident that an 8-bore ball pushed by 273 grains of Swiss will kill anything on the planet if I do my part. The sh!t of it is that I live abroad and the rifle is in North America. I get to visit it three or four months out of the year.

Best,

John
