I think there was a guy installing Bisley frames on these IIRC.

I have seen 30-30’s not penetrate boar skulls from the top also. In one instance I saw a 30-30 at 300 yeads not penetrate a boar's rib cage with three shots. I took him out with a 7x57 Mauser. The three 30-30 rounds were stuck in the ribs with one stuck in the bone. This was a 300 pound pig with tusks and a bad attitude in Kalifornia.

Were any of those through the top of the head? Guess you were there and know better.
I was there for every shot I made. They were all head shots. The guide I had carried a .30-30, must have been very inadequate.
How many foot-pounds do you think the knife had?
Were you there for the "guy you heard about" up in the tree?
To: CurlyDave
So you put a knife thru the top of a pigs skull. Pretty good

The local Wal-Mart has a couple of those but they seem a little expensive especially since they are Taurus or Rossi.GunBroker has 'em between $500-$600, but then you gotta pay postage and a transfer fee. Sometime you hit on a good deal: got my stainless beauty for $475 + $60.

If you think those are expensive single-shots, these may well give ya a heart attack:

Best grab a couple whilst they’re still cheap!
Also available as a pistol if desired.
They also carry LOTS of other nice shootin’ goodies and I’ll add the that couple times I’ve purchased from them in the past I was completely satisfied (just ammo, scopes, etc., no firearms as of yet).
