caliber

my favorite is; Rifle - 375 h&h Mag. same trajectory as a 270 Winchester and a whole lot more energry.

Pistol - for a revolver the 44 special or the 44 mag can't be beat. For an auto the 45 ACP is the champ... no other caliber in a campact auto can compete with it.

For a shotgun - 12 ga. for the all around home defense gun -a 12 ga double shooting 3 in. No. 4 mags. the first shot gets their attention. the second clears the driveway.



By the way the biggest gun I've shot is a 3 inch bore blackpowdeer cannon (my design) with a 60 inch barrel with a load of 1200 grains of blackpowder. Range was 600 yards. Flame out the barrel was 35-40 yards.

I've had both in there. I think. I bought it used and assumed the spring in there was stock. I replaced with a Wolff spring.

Yup, its a . 257 Weatherby. It shoots sub MOA with both 100 and 120 grains. I've had it for close to 25 years.
