Because of a previous thread discussing the joys of bruised shoulders and rattled brains from shooting big thumpers I decided to take to the range with my trapdoor and 430+gr full loads. Anyway after a couple of fouling shots (which rattled my brain) I shot a clover leaf 3 shot group from a sub 1" group I put 2 more down range and ended up with a sub 2" group a few more a sub 6" group etc. After 13 rounds I had a group I won't even tell my dogs about, and I tell them everything.
Did I think it was fun? Only if getting a vertical butt stroke before being bayonetted is fun, only if burying Gramma is fun, only if getting bucked off a horse and catching the saddle horn in the groin on the way down is fun.
So Doc if you're ever in the neighborhood, let me buy you a sandwich at the North HiWay Cafe and the beverage of your choice and then you can take my Mauser and 40 rds of factory misery so I can have the brass for pleasant cast bullet cartridges.
