    What about the Adams Revolver.Ammo for it must be hard to come by
    It got mentioned recently or not so long ago. Reloading would get this
    classic down off the shelf. Wrong thread but what the heck.:(

    The adams was a percussion fire pistol. All you need is a bullet mould, caps and powder. Have shot one in the north. So is loading 6 chambers considered, reloading?

    Has to be the .50BMG. It will do anything you ask from it. Deer behind brick wall? No problem. Your fox gone to ground? Just slap a 50 down the hole. Your rabbit is a mile away? Just watch him explode!

    It can also be used for dusting:D:D

    Don't know how to break this to you Chem but the .50 is one expensive lady to
    maintain and look after she will bleed you dry and thats power alone if you handload!

    The fox will probably drop dead at the sight of it. Thats economical in the extreme but no satisfaction for you as the hunter.

    Shoot deer with it, very messy, bits of bone and flesh all over the place, bring pleanty of carrier bags to gather up.

    Target shooting, won't have many friends after the first shot, renting CJH's island off the south west might help, bring a man servant to haul the dam thing.If in the end you still want one get then one get one, but you have been warned.;)

    One is enough Chem, two at the same time forget it. Cat fights for your attention would drive you to the drink eventually if not sooner.:confused:
