virgin intermediate vs chad elephant killer
The muzzle energy is about 4700J
For comparison .50AE is about 2000J
.45-70 will cause a nigger's head to explode like a melon
Pics or it didn't happen
I'm waiting on my moonman mask before I try that.
What's the max effective range on it, though?
<:moonman:390573776301195269>
@Jossur Surtrson 3,350 yards
It's for big game hunting
that's max range
not max practical range
500 grain bullet at around 700 m/s
What's the bullet type?
.45-70-500
I can split heads with a 556 at 500 yards no problem. Not sure of the trajectory angle on the 45-70 at that range
@Jossur Surtrson It's really not a practical cartridge for combat tbh
It's more for lul factor or for shooting big game
Is it pretty expensive to shoot?
Definitely has punching power, that's for sure.
@Fevs I've never needed to buy more since none of my ranges will let me shoot it. It goes around 2-3 dollars per round for 500 grain, so yeah it's pricey
I'm saving it for the race war as such.
damn
At 2-3 dollars a round, it better do more for me than hit my target. It better give me a back rub at night, too.
@Jossur Surtrson It will pass through a tree and make a deer's head explode
I mean total skull destruction
That's a "If I'm gonna die in this trench, I'm taking out as many of these people as I can in the most violent way possible" round.
like I said it's really just an oversized cartridge for luls
I use a 22-250 for deer.
The speed of the round causes hydrostatic shock. They typically drop where they stood.
Yeah those videos are chilling
They just stand there, and slowly drop dead
It's a beautiful thing. Spend less than a dollar to put meat on the table and money in my pocket that would otherwise be spent at some grocery store owned by (((someone))) I probably wouldn't like.
I don't hunt for sport
Hunting for sport is reserved for psychopaths
My compassion and respect for the animal is also why I don't bow hunt. A swift bullet through the heart or in the neck... instant, painless death.
Imagine not using 308.
Imagine not owning a PTR 91.
