".220 Swift, JHP"

That's a nice little round. However, as my screen name implies, I'm partial to a bigger round, say, a 165-grain .30-06 JHP. Now, that's reaching out and touching someone.

How about a 30-06 saboted "accelerator?" See my last post above why.

I know just what you mean. All of mine are .30cal. I am STILL angry about them taking my M-14 and giving me the M-16. There is a story told by a British SAS man who engaged in the Falklins. He lamented the fact that the foe had to be hit three times before going down; however, only one shot was all it took from his FN FAL. (Which they took from him before the fracas.) He also said that the FN was indeed a beast to carry around, yet he has no recollection that it weighed anything at all during combat.
