Only thing that can be shot legally is he groundhogs right now......Mr. farmer hasn't got the hay cut yet !!! Sad

I could use some 200 and 240gr JHP's fer Boomer...hint-hint. First I gotta get some bunny and bird loads for my pop-guns.

Wow, some one reacted decisively!

"One of the gentlemen that was downstairs saw a bright flash of light,” Waterman said. “He alerted everyone and pulled the fire alarm."

He didn't even wait to find out if anything was wrong just knew that something migh be wrong. That guy saved lots of lives!

That is just plain nasty...it great that nobody was injured and that the company execs believe that they can get back online quickly.

Time to purchase some Nosler boolits methinks...help them back onto their feet.

Cheers, Vince

Great minds think alike, aye Stovepipe? I use the Nosler 158 Jacket hollow points in the 686, as my standby anti-home invasion persuader! I have the same load for my 4inch Colt Python back-up as well Very Happy

Shame about Nosler, but glad no one was hurt!

Cheers Erny.
