I'd love to see this blonde girl shoot the gun from the following video the same way that she's holding that range rifle!

Ok, I think we have finally solved the stopping power debate. That round wins.

I don't mean to thread-jack this, but...
It's worth pointing out just what they are shooting in that video. Apparently it is called the .577 T-Rex and it looks like this compared to a .375:

And this answers the question on the other thread -- the spokeslady for MN RKBA. I suspect she'd do well in commercial small arms advertising also.

They were looking for a competent, attractive and outgoing leader. Hair color was an incidental feature. Chest size was an incidental feature. My suggestion would be to inquire with the lady pictured above the position.

For the obvious reasons, I think Dee may be able to bend her ear on that. Beyond that, I dunno.

I'll run it by her next weekend.
She's pretty independent so it's her decision not mine.

My apologies to the OP as his thread got totally hijacked.
Joel,
I sent you a PM on this. I can't find it in my sent box so I don't know if it went out.
* I think I emailed you instead of a PM.
