[QUOTE="GMB54, post: 5224068, member: 15365"] You sound like you are in denial because sidelocks capable of clean ethical 200yd kills have been around for well over 100 years. They even compete very well in matches like the Creedmore 150 that is just getting put together. My source of ignition just isnt on the side. Its inline, obviously. I can shoot the same loads from a ballistic standpoint. No deer/elk/bison/bear/ect that ever walked this earth is ever gunna be able to tell the difference. My deer load for the last 5ish years has been a 45cal 350gr pure lead conical and 70gr of powder. I shoot upto a 488gr with 80gr sometimes too. The only difference is the lack of funds in my wallet to put togther a custom 45cal 1-18 or 1-20 sidelock. So tell me if im shooting the same bullet at the same speed, how is that not the same? Oh yeah i didnt need to play dress up or scrub my barrel in a bucket of soapy water. I cant say the deer will ever know the difference how i cleaned it. Only you "traditionalist" seem to take up any issue with how i ignite my powder and what methods should be legal. Thats why many people like you need a forum where you cant even mention an inline. Cant say i ever saw a modern ML forum that did the same thing. [/QUOTE]
