Scully Posted June 30, 2018 Report Share Posted June 30, 2018 A member of our pistol club ( we used MOD ranges so owned CF rifles also ) went to our local cop shop ( when such things still existed !) and handed in his application for a .444 Marlin. The local bobby, who knew him well ( small town; everyone knew everyone ) asked ‘haven’t you got enough guns? That’s an elephant calibre.... what on Earth do you need one of those for?’ Mate just smiled and asked ‘ why do you need so many golf clubs ?’ Bobby just shook his head. I once asked him how he reloaded for it; he told me he just filled the case and rammed a head in! ? It was pleasant enough to shoot, and semi jacketed hollow soft points ( with gas check ) were impressively devastating on turnips at 100 yards! Ah, the good old days! ??

Houseplant Posted June 30, 2018 Report Share Posted June 30, 2018 5 hours ago, spandit said: .45 ACP or something? Sure, or 44 mag or 300BLK. People over here are doing interesting stuff with subsonic 44 mag from a suppressed rifle for close range hunting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
