Using an older Stevens 311 with double triggers, IC choke in the left barrel with a 3" #4 Buck (40 pellets, .25" dia.) and the right barrel with a Skeet 1 choke and a 3" OO Buck (15 pellets) produces a "cloud" about 2" vertical and 3" horizontal at 10 feet. That still makes a wound cavity...

Being a "top break" precludes the possibility of a second cylinder for .22 Magnum. This is why I have a Ruger Single Six with the 6" barrel that I bought about 25 years ago. It is single action only but very accurate even with "bulk" ammo. I shot a squirrel through the neck at 10 yds. many...

Not unlike Gov. Jabba of ILL-ANNOY. :barf:

Another advantage of a shotgun over a rifle or pistol is that the "cloud" of pellets is more forgiving of poor aiming which can be a factor at night. Also, the area of damage is greater than a single solid projectile. Think about that - one .38 cal slug (0.355-.358") vs. 12-15 pellets that are...

Speaking of dates in April, for those interested, there is a planned march on the ILL-ANNOY capitol for the Illinois Gun Owner's Lobby Day aka IGOLD ON Thursday, the 18th. Activities start at the Prairie State Convention Center about 10 a.m., followed by a march through city streets to the...

And some people (like me) don't have dogs (anymore) because of their own mobility problems that makes it difficult to properly walk, train, and "play" with a dog, esp. a larger one. After having had dogs for 30 years, I have been "dog-less" for 14 years. The first 8 or 9 as I still hadn't...

Armoredman - because of the rifling in the Judge, I would be inclined to use shot of at least 7 1/2 or larger. And limit your distances to 25' or less. At 25', you won't get many hits with #6 shot but they will still be effective. With 7 1/2 shot, I wouldn't risk it past 20'as penetration...

Damn !! That makes me think of the old stories of the "Ned Buntline Specials" ! And NO, I would not get rid of it either !!

In a 7 room house of less than 1,500 sq. ft., there is a hidden hand gun in the two most frequented rooms. The rest are in the master bedroom. And all are fully loaded. Don't chide me - no wife (anymore) and no kids so "no problemo". :evil:

That's "assault" and possibly "battery" as well.

I learned a LONG time ago to not let a gun I had/wanted get away from me. That has happened only once in my life when I traded a Ruger 7" .22LR pistol in order to buy an Astra Constable .380 - which I still have 49 years later. Another one is an AK with the milled receiver that I got...

Colin has a "way with words", but he is right when he points out that long-time "residents" do NOT value out freedoms the way that people (like this Chinese immigrant lady) value them. I would willing to bet that Hogg was never in Boy Scouts. If he was, he has forgotten that important mantra of...

I believe that ILL-ANNOY should be added to that list.

Just look at it for what it actually is - yet another "infringement" so the elitists can disarm the general populace. :fire: :cuss: :barf:

You might try checking out Ammo Seek for prices - https://ammoseek.com/ One had the Aguila Extra HV .22LR 38 gr. HP for $41.60/1000 rds. I couldn't get the prices of S&H without setting up an account with the various vendors, something I'm not willing to do at this time. In the small vertical...
