The .17 Swift or Fireball I think, Dolomite had it on here in an earlier post I think.

Yeah I saw that. I was just being funny, with no smiley face my humor was unnoticed, lol. I think 2600 would be max from the research I have done.

They really need a sarcasm font. I'm known for being extremely sarcastic and dry, but for some reason it never comes across well is text... 4,000 fps out of a rimfire would be scary.

[BluewaterTactical]

I totally agree with both of your points. Sarcasm is my best trait!! Yes 4 grand out of a rimfire would be nasty. Just nasty

[gjohnsoniv]

I mean I guess it good be done if you had a large enough case, but the question would be why would you want to do it?

[BluewaterTactical]

GJohn, I would do nothing with it. Soon as the wind does down and the rain leaves I will get it out and shoot it. I will post pics of target and fun, I just had to paint it ALREADY.

[gjohnsoniv]

Hey if you can't shoot it you might as well do something with it.

Not as cheap as .22, but not the most expensive stuff either. Gander mountain loves their 45-70, 50 something dollars a box.

I can cast and reload a box for less than $2. The market is irrational.

Supply and demand at it's finest right there.

Your speaking of 45-70 right??
