IIRC, Richard Wolters had a scientific way to choose a bird dog puppy in his book GUN DOG. I think he may have outlined in another book FAMILY DOG how to pick a puppy to be a companion only.

Awesome Charlie! Is the breech offset to the round? The hammer does not appear to me to hit the center of the breech and i couldn't see a firing pin hole in the center of the breech face.

As I was saying, 10mm is seeing a resurgence in popularity. Hopefully this will encourage ammo makers to produce more, and to produce it in a "+P"/Norma loading. I really like the Fed AE FMJ truncated cone, but it's pricey and low powered (a 180gr at 1140 fps is really unacceptable). Whil...
