Reminds me of that Chevy Chase movie where the redneck brother in law

Herring wouldn't like our street. We have some folks in the
neighborhood with dark skin.


That why you keep all those large caliber firearms?


I don't shoot any "large caliber" firearms. The ones I do shoot are for
inanimate targets and right-wing zombies, of course.

357 magnum and 45 are not target rounds unless your target has flesh and blood.


They can be target rounds. And 357 mag is definitely a large caliber
round! .45 is bigger than a 44 magnum in diameter. Not as powerful, but
definitely a large caliber.


.357 rounds are about the same diameter as 9mm rounds. 9mm is available
with 147 grain and larger bullets. I shoot 125 grain and 158 grain .357.
It's not a large caliber round. I don't shoot .45 caliber.


Oh, and for FlaJim, who is about as ignorant of handguns and ammo as he
is of everything else, here's a vid of a fella shooting .357 Mags in
competition target shooting:

He is not shooting .357 magnum rounds. He is shooting very light loads.
Probably light for even .38 special. Little kick in the Ruger.


Gee, Bilious, just what *is* a .357 mag round, in your typically
uninformed opinion?

I didn't see a "crawl" along the bottom of the vid indicating what
powder and how much was being used, along with the bullet weight. I
shoot standard, manufactured .357 Mag target loads, with 158 grain
bullets. They *are* .357 magnum rounds. There's very little recoil or
muzzle flip with my revolver. I do have some special self-defense rounds
with a lighter grain bullet, but I don't use them for target shooting.

This is yet another of those subjects about which you don't know your
ass from a hole in the ground.
