Sedalia Dave Posted May 5, 2022 Share Posted May 5, 2022 When that goes off your hand is going to feel like the Buffalo stepped on it. The muzzle flash is going to rival that of a mountain howitzer. Heck it may be a bigger deterrent than the bullet. I wonder what the muzzle velocity is with three quarters of that 4 inch barrel length taken up by the cartridge. I do think there are a few too many zeros in that range estimation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eyesa Horg Posted May 5, 2022 Share Posted May 5, 2022 Yeh, 2000 yds. With a derringer might be a tad far! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At 2000 yards, the Buffalo (Cape) or American Bison isn't really interested! If you want to shoot either, ethics require a close approach. Was in my plans, just got old too fast.

Capstick Lives, at least in my mind! Never went, but everything but getting past our Government apparently gets done by the Safari Company. No waste, the locals apparently love the extra meat.
