True Grizz! Jesus never promoted a religion, not even the one He was born into. Makes some people nervous when you tell them Jesus wasn't a christian. :roll: not even a baptist. . . . He is The King of The Kingdom, and He loves us anyway ! And gives believers citizenship with Him in His House. It b...

No, all religions are not equal. True. If they were they would have no one to fight with. So each one has to style itself different than the other and proclaim it is THE ONE TRUE religion. Christ said He is the way the truth and the life, and no one comes to Father but thru Him. I believe Him and I...

My take-away is that biden is consorting with another known anti-christ to foment more hatred of Christians and Jews. This indicates to me that

Religions have no moral high ground from which to judge other religions. They all have a history of killing the opposition if they won't convert. It was religious christian knights who coined the phrase "Kill 'em all. Let God sort them out." if i remember correctly. thought that was Patto...

John Linebaugh once said that his sons, Dustin and Cole frequently carried 4 5/8" Rugers in .45 Colt when they were out in the hills and they found their loads with 250 gr cast bullets over 8.5 gr of 231 would pass through deer lengthwise even out past 75 yards. I'm pretty sure the 45 S will d...

That's Impressive. It is about the energy of a 255 Gr Buffalo Bore 45 Super around 1150fps . . . . which might be unobtainium in the 1911 . . ,

As for the 255 gr. bullet ... it was used for a lot of years and worked quite well. The 255 HC is the bullet for the 45 Super that is in the works, the hard cast version of it penetrated 64 inches of gel. I'm with Scott on this, it has to be placed where it will do the most good, but it's my choice...

Good one Jim. It works the other way too. Load 45/70 for a while and 357 seems small and 25-20 is too little for any possible application.

I agree, the flat points have never done that in my experience. They will blow up a heart like a pin pricked balloon if it's full of blood.

think the bow and arrow are a bit more complicated than the atlatl and the atlatl is so much larger than the bow/arrow, unless you talk of english longbows.

I always thought that the "hunting scenes" in museums based on anthro-ignorance was suspect. I even went so far as to point out, from a hunter perspective, what was wrong with the expert's diorama, to no avail... Turns out that an atlatl will put a clovis point clean through a bison. "...
