  1. If you must use FMJ, I fear the only shot you have at humanely taking it down is ....... a headshot. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  2. Actually, if the car hit a person at 65mph, or if a truck hit a person at 55mph, the person that was hit with the car at 65mpg would be more dead (or deader than dead if you prefer) than the one hit with a truck at 55mph. So the real question is, do you think dead is good enough, or is deader than dead better?
  3. Larry, I misplaced my phallus measuring stick. I would ask to borrow yours to compare, but I fear it may be insufficient. Congratulations on admitting that you're as old as a dinosaur, probably just as grumpy as well. Some people age gracefully, but others, sadly don't. To answer your question, (if it's even a question at all) you probably used a 60gr pill because you have don't have a .223 and 60gr would give you the best "guess" and put you in the category of "internet expert". You seem to like tooting your own horn, so that's my best guess.
  4. 25 ft-lbs for medium sized game... Any references to this number? You're using a calculator specifically for arrows? What's the BC of the arrow you used in your calculations?
  5. Thanks for looking that up Jaeger. Nothing wrong with civilized discussions. It would seem I was either wrong or outdated regarding center fires for big game in NY.
  6. Larry, before you go attacking me on learning a thing or two, do you know what external ballistics is? How about terminal ballistics? Difference between the two?
  7. I tried to find where I've read these regs, but was unable to do so. Everything I've looked up points to any center fire like you've stated. I'm either getting senile or its buried somewhere that I don't care to spend more than 15 minutes looking into.
  8. It's actually not any center fire rifle. It's any center fire rifle .22 and larger.
  9. Korean BBQ marinade with sliced flat iron steak with minced garlic.
  10. No one is disputing the energy a slug carries at "close range". You seem to be arguing with yourself. Either that, or you simply missed the point that a .223 has superior external ballistics past 75 yards compared to a 12ga slug.
  11. You can ASSume whatever you want, doesn't make any of the fecal matter coming out of you any more true than the baseless doomsday atmosphere you try to bring to this site on a daily basis. Go back to copying links from your favorite, biased web sources. Probably the only thing you're good at.
  12. Yes Bob, I agree. But as with all things when it comes to opinion, everyone has one. As long as it's legal, and the shooter is proficient with the implement used, I see no issue. I think it's a wonderful thing when a youngster takes a moose with an implement he is comfortable with and doesn't need to flinch when shooting it. I call that, proficient.
  13. And you turn every post into some kind political end of the world doomsday.
  14. When in doubt, let it hang low. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  15. LJC, do us all a favor and stop quoting, you don't know the first thing on how to use the quoting system, and it's a pretty darn fool-proof system. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  16. https://www.facebook.com/groups/146213308771829/permalink/964293166963835/ Someone say Moose?
  17. Depends on what you have already, both rounds are very good in terms of external ballistics.
  18. This is a reply to post #40 He said she said? Let me guess, got it off the 'net so it has to be true?!
  19. If they wanted our guns, wouldn't the bow being legal to hunt and now the crossbow be enough to say, why need guns? Just use the bow.
  20. http://lewisboro.dailyvoice.com/news/moose-on-loose-dies-after-being-struck-by-vehicle-in-northern-westchester/681919/ Another story on it. Second one in 8 years. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  21. I recall the wording for rifle hunting for deer was any center fire .22 or larger, but can't find the reference to this at the moment.
