YES! and we can include Doctors, County Zoning Inspectors, and TV Preachers. Then there is that *special* class of Porkeater, You know the ones. They are too cheap to buy a good flinter, so they drill out the touch hole on their Junker gun to try to make it fire, then they cover YOU up with burning powder when you are shooting next to them. I had the displeasure of shooting next to one of these pork munching flatlanders at a doins last fall. He had more soot and smoke coming from the side of his gun than the front! A bunch of us were ready to hang him and his Junker gun up as the 50 yard target!

"Iff-ees" on some doctors, but we are getting quite a list. Can we put them all together and do something with a doll and needles and chicken blood and candles ans such to make the world a better place??

An old gunsmithing mentor has a formula for one. He says the only way to be sure to have knock down power is to match the weight of the bullet to the weight of the game and propel it at the speed of light. I did have a friend who stopped a Mack truck with a spear. He was on a survey crew holding the target stick and a dump truck harassed him day after day by heasding straight at him and veering at the last moment. After a few days (the truck came by several times a day) he threw the target stick through the radiator which went clen through and into the fan. Broke the belts and stopped the truck in a few hundred yards. Got a reprimand (with a wink) from the boss. 45/70 would probably have done it too.

And if you are not a believer in "Knock Down" power either, my > apologies for suggesting that you are. <G> I did knock a deer down with one shot of my trusty old .54 several years ago. It had its head down following a coupla does. Musta turned to run when the flint struck the frizzen, 'cause the ball hit it at the base of the neck, follwed the spine, and exited just below the jaw. That deer went down like it had been poll axed. But that's the only one. Yep the old 45-70 is an outstanding cartridge, especially when hand loaded to its full potential for use modern actions, but I'm not an advocate of knock down power. The Mack truck quote came from a former post, and while a 45-70 might stop a Mack Truck, I wouldn't want to be standing in front of that truck waiting for it to roll over and die. ;-) - ---------------------- hist_text list info: http://www.xmission.com/~drudy/mtman/maillist.html ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 26 Feb 2001 23:05:04 EST From: MarkLoader@aol.com Subject: MtMan-List: Coffee pot or pan - --part1_d5.2db96fc.27cc8170_boundary Content-Type: text/plain; charset="US-ASCII" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit In David Adams Journals October 1, 1843.
