I know this is childish, but hey. Were all big kids at heart.

I've owned a variety of handguns in a fair range of chamberings. Yet, if you add up all the rounds I've fired, the .45 acp, (out of 1911s), is nearing 100,000 and all of the others combined probably don't amount to 20,000. I'm looking for that same shooting enjoyment and practicality in a long gun. Here's hoping the .450B can fill the bill.

Of course 206, and thanks for the help. But in the mean time I need a recoil victim, can you come over here, it'll only take one round before you need a mortician and we have plenty of them here, make ya look purr-dy??
