Hickok45 style, cool vids.

I'll have to try that,

Good job, GHF

Years ago I used an 1894c Marlin in .357 Magnum I used for close range groundhog hunting. Used a 125 grain hollow point pushed as hard as I dared. Was VERY effective!

You for got to smoke some pot in that video

Cool vids, but be careful the "Cruelty to Water Jug" brigade doesn't catch up with you.

I'm no Hickok45, but that's a great compliment! Thanks, Henry88!

These XTPs turn into little bombs at this velocity. It's a ton of fun! Can't imagine what they would do to a groundhog.

I stumbled onto a free source of empty water jugs, but I don't have a source for free pot. Any ideas?

I'm just doing my part to help compact them before they go into the recycle bin. Who could find fault with that?

Picture a cross between a lightning strike and a nuclear explosion!

Yee Haw! Gotta love reactive targets!

Very nice wood on that Henry.
