I read it earlier, Travis, and it was real good. I was looking for more when I got done . . .

About the PC angle, don't worry -- You can always change the ending to where the good guys get killed by the gov't. types and the old f*rt gets the hot chick . Hollywierd gobbles those up! ;^)

Now get back to work!

You know I'm kidding about changing the story -- It's solid gold.

I wish I had a Contender. I read a story about a guy in CO doing some SERIOUS 500 yard type target work with one!!

He claimed there was no real secret to it, typical target-shooting reloading tricks, etc. -Wow . .

I understand you can reload a single shot pretty fast if you keep ammo real handy -- like between the fingers of the hand in front . . It's a good 'sleeper' type of weapon for your story!

I can just imagine the Hollywood treatment of my book: gallant FBI agents helping old ladies across the street, being ambushed with AK-47 fire by filthy longhaired bearded militia types in greasy coveralls driving rusty pickup trucks flying confederate flags...

No thanks.

BTW, according to the T/C website the best group ever shot by any pistol was (memory here) about a sub three inch five shot group at 400 yards using (memory again) a 6mm wildcat.
