Re: Don't shoot your chronograph

I used to have a Detonics Combat Master... Once, at the range, a fellow I barely knew wanted to shoot it across his Chrony to see what the velocity was out of its abreviated barrel. I warned him it shot quite low.

I warned him twice.

He didn't listen. :roll:

I think the big difference is the age of the animal not its sex.

I have an early 444 and a 1st year 1895 45-70. I think the 444 loads and cycles smoother, it also shoots much tighter than my 1895. They are both more gun than is needed for a Maine white tail...
