Back then I didn't think it all that unusual. I just had to call the neighbors so that they weren't surpirsed with the noise. That was a while back, but I'm still ok with a pistol.

On the level III, we're dealing with the low-tech steel plate, 10x12, not pretty, not light. I think I'll opt out of convoys as much as possible, they look dangerous. I'd prefer to put my own money into something more comfortable (more likely to be worn!), but that's not an option right now.

Anyway...maybe next season I'll take my 7.62x54R out for some whitetail and see how the antiques do. (not ME, the RIFLES!)

Wolfe makes some 200gr. soft tip for the 7.62x 54r that is what I shot today, copper washed steel case no good to reload but reliable and consistant, and at around $ 5 a box reasonably priced. (if you buy 10 boxes) got mine from J&G out in Prescott AZ.

Love those Moisins but the Finns, oh Momma!
