Still ain't shabby 4450. If I don't get to the desert or the mountain range pretty soon, my trigger finger might fall off. :shock: . Need to empty some brass! That 17HMR must be a hoot.

Makes you wonder how Roy Rogers and the boys could hit anything firing a wheel gun from the back of a galloping horse, don't it? :lol:

The Duke could do it with a revolver in each hand and the reins in his mouth. :lol:
