Vort, hate to bust your sig, but....You've never lived on a farm have you? There are all kinds of animals that "adopt" other species. Fairly common stuff.
My mind is a raging torrent, flooded with rivulets of thought cascading into a waterfall of creative alternatives.
Stay thirsty my friends.

I use to do alot of reloading at one time. Do they reload for the .50cal for even more accuracy? Must be a pretty big press and gear for that round. Fun to experiement with.

Yes,

And the only reason I could think of is that people might think that the round is too powerful for cilvilian use and their affraid that someone might choose to stop their limo or snipe them at 1 mile range.

Last I looked into it, they weren't illegal here as long as they didn't hold more then 10 rounds in semi auto form.

Years ago a friend of mine was talking about sharing the cost on buying a .50cal but while fun idea only place we wouild of been able to shoot it at a good distance was a private range 2 hours drive north. But back then it was all way over our budgets.

well then... it would appear that we both agree that the only people that feel threatened are the ruling class.... I believe that the ruling class feeling threatened is a healthy thing.
