It's definitely got a lot more behind it then a regular magnum load does.

I can say there is a lot of lead flying now but no doubt about it you can get three aimed shots off in a second. I just need more practice as ive got too much lead.

That last fox was a pissa. I reckon you need a 4 shot shotgun now :lol: :lol: I was out with Joe today and we had some fun on rabbits. They do not like the 300 win mag at 418m. :lol: :lol:

You might have to teach the dogs to retrieve the rabbits, I hate climbing under prickly brush like that.

I also find over choking pretty common these days, I've even guilty of it myself on more then a few occasions, it's one reason I tend to do a lot of pattern testing so I can find the most versitile load/choke combo for the best results from the broadest possible situations.

Here's some proof that it doesn't matter how big a round you hit something with, it's where you hit them that counts.

That was embarrassing. Why would you want to show that? And then empties the magazine to put it out of it's misery. Don't need the anti's to do us in we are doing it to ourselves,. That was just plain dumb.

So the little triple did ok on the weekend after the scoreboard was caught by some wind off a tree and slammed on my head while i was eating a lamb berger. Left me with a headache, neck ache and a nice round dent in the board. Didn't put me off too much. I still missed a few lol.

Well I compare the 3 barrel shotgun with the Verney Carron Veloce. Three barrel also beats it hands down for 3 shots.
