    What kind of ear pro do you use

    I can't speak to center fire, but I have been present for a 16 gauge shotgun going of in a kitchen, and while horribly loud, and almost certainly damaging to my ears, it was not nearly as bad as most people make it out to be, and certainly wasn't loud enough to be disorienting. This was also...

    Why Use Hollow Points?

    First of all the only even remotely guaranteed to immediately stop someone is a shot to the cns, any place else and people can and do continue to fight through. So if you want an immediate stop, you aren't aiming for vitals, you are aiming for the brain stem/primitive brain. Assuming you are...

    Can you legally shoot a friends "assault weapon".

    I'm curious which employee, I recently had an issue with an employee there that viewed him self as the definitive authority on the safe act, and was a real pain in the ass. Branson was pretty apologetic about it, wondering if it was the same one. Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk

    Can you legally shoot a friends "assault weapon".

    No it was legal, the owner was a SOT, that offered rentals at a local range. It was actually the company that used to own the other forum. Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk

    Can you legally shoot a friends "assault weapon".

    Why Use Hollow Points?

    The same logic still applies, hitting the brain, may or may not cause an immediate shutdown of the body, to get that affect you need to strike a specific piece of the brain, and or cause enough damage to larger portions of the brain. Having a larger diameter projectile will help increase the...

    Why Use Hollow Points?

    Yes adequate penetration is a must, and if you stick with a tested/proven round, you will get penetration. 1mm might not seem like much, but the difference between missing the heart, lungs, aorta, etc can be a matter of millimeters. Given that modern hollow points are specifically designed to...

    Why Use Hollow Points?

    We are talking about more then doubling the size of the hole created by the bullets path, that means more tissue destroyed, a wound track twice as big, more potential for bleeding, a greater potential to strike a vital organ or artery. Unless you feel that more then 18" of penetration is needed...

    Why Use Hollow Points?

    You are comparing diameter, but try comparing the surface area of the expanded bullets. A quick check shows a .355 diameter object, has a front surface area of .09, while an expand bullet with a diameter of .5 has a front surface area of .2, so that extra millimeter or so of expansion is nearly...
