Big Old Bullet; more lead means less lead.
« on: July 11, 2014, 10:19:30 AM »
My son sent me this article.  It fits right into the topic of Vintage Hunting. Son is a pest control deer stalker in England, but also a CAS competitor.  I believe he is thinking about using his Sharps on those pesky little Muntjacs.  (One deer renders about 6 kilos of venison!)

Your link doesn't go to the article. It goes to the Gmail email that you got.
