Used my FA`s 454 and a handload with a 300gr Partition over a charge of H-110. The big red boar was in the 800 to 900lb class and one 300gr Partition through the shoulder was enough to put he down. The shot was about 40yds , across a small stream, after which he ran about 10yds and piled up. The smaller black boar was at close range with the exit wound visable in the picture. Both were taken with the 300gr from my 454.....The big boar had some very thick choppers and a viscous wound above the leg from another boar. This is the largest boar I`ve taken.</P> <p>Forum: <a href="http://albroswift.websitetoolbox.com/?forum=133972">Open Topic</a> http://albroswift.websitetoolbox.com/post?id=4563703 Mon, 08 Feb 2010 23:44:20 GMT Jamesfromjersey http://albroswift.websitetoolbox.com/post?id=4461234 <P><FONT size=4>Ok I need some help.&nbsp; As I have only been reloading for a couple of years now, I need some advice from some of the older reloading manuals.

Now, my passion for guns has returned and in catching up on the gun scene, I read that S&amp;W changed their locks to accomodate the buyers safety lock system. I have read a couple snarky comments concerning this new lock system and it concerns me as I want to get another Smith in the future. <br>What is the state of S&amp;W pistols now? Are the new ones any good? Would you be better off getting an older one? <br>My first pistol was a Mod 19 bought in 72 and it was a sweet gun. I miss it bad. Word of advice boys...never loan a gun to your ex-wife..you might never see it again. <br>I see they are making alot of the old models again. I would love to pick up Mod 29 someday. Jeez do they cost alot now. <br> <p>Forum: <a href="http://albroswift.websitetoolbox.com/?forum=133972">Open Topic</a> http://albroswift.websitetoolbox.com/post?id=4201235 Fri, 01 Jan 2010 19:55:24 GMT KansasScout http://albroswift.websitetoolbox.com/post?id=4128953 Merry Christmas everyone..<br>John<BR><br> <p>Forum: <a href="http://albroswift.websitetoolbox.com/?forum=133972">Open Topic</a> http://albroswift.websitetoolbox.com/post?id=4128953 Fri, 25 Dec 2009 22:01:59 GMT johniv http://albroswift.websitetoolbox.com/post?id=3949707 <P>I was wondering if anyone cared to comment on whether or not keeping a blued steel gun in a holster for extended periods of time damaged the finish?

Then it was my turn, I though a minute and replied "my nephew Steven", I was thrown a few strange looks, Then I went on to say he didn`t serve in the military or cop or any Public Servant, What he did do is something that me or my brothers couldn`t do for our father, He gave a Kidney to my oldest brother his dad and saved his life. My brother had Diabetes in a bad way going to get "hooked up" every couple days and feeling generally poor all the time going on for a couple years and took a bad turn landing him in the hospital for an extended stay, wrong meds, bad communication,had alot of big bumps in his road he was placed on a donors list was there for awhile and his condition was going down something had to be done.I and my Nephew have the same blood type so we were elected took all the tests and it came down to a Kidney that was 22 years younger Steven was it. The operation went a little longer than they planed but came out well my brother is still with us and Steven is doing fine.<BR>So when anyone ever asks me who`s your Hero? you might see a tear in the corner of my eye when I say my nephew it might be pride to know him or the gift of life he so easily gave to his dad.<BR>Hero`s big and small we NEED them to show the rest of us how to live,God smiles on them forever. <p>Forum: <a href="http://albroswift.websitetoolbox.com/?forum=133972">Open Topic</a> http://albroswift.websitetoolbox.com/post?id=3873949 Mon, 23 Nov 2009 18:36:13 GMT marksman45b http://albroswift.websitetoolbox.com/post?id=3845905 Some people have it and some don`t.A friend of mine called a couple days back to tell me of an extraordinary story, it seems that in the wee hours of the morning there was crash in his family room, breaking glass, pounding on the walls, plants overturned, pictures off the walls, holes in the couch in the chairs generally trashed room, two windows broken one in one out, blood on the carpet and on the sill, he called the police they came to make the report, they found hove prints in the ground outside and a blood trail which they followed but they lost the blood and gave up, police losing a blood&nbsp;trail go figure.His insurance I hope will pay to get his family room back in shape.I suggested he run a guide service having his clients sit in the family room and wait.Luck some people have it and some don`t <p>Forum: <a href="http://albroswift.websitetoolbox.com/?forum=133972">Open Topic</a> http://albroswift.websitetoolbox.com/post?id=3845905 Fri, 20 Nov 2009 16:01:00 GMT marksman45b http://albroswift.websitetoolbox.com/post?id=3808373 At the 11th hour on the 11th day of the 11th month the great war has ended and peace reigns over the land.<BR><BR>Lest We Ever Forget<BR><BR>Why do you still march old man,with medals on your chest?<BR>Why do you still grieve old man,for those friends you laid to rest?<BR>Why do your eyes gleam old man,when you hear those bugles blow?<BR>Tell me why you cry old man, about those days so long ago.<BR><BR>I'll tell you why I march young man, with medals on my chest<BR>I'll tell you why I grieve young man, for those I laid to rest,<BR>Through misty fields of gossamer silk come visions of distant times,<BR>When boys of tender age lost lives, and all their mothers pined;<BR>We buried them in a blanket shroud, their young flesh scorched and blackened,<BR>A communal grave newly gouged in blood stained gorse and bracken,<BR>And you ask me why I march young man, I march to remind you all,<BR>That but for those apple-blossom youths, you'd never have known freedom at all.<BR><BR>author unknown<BR><BR>Thanks to all Veterans <BR> <p>Forum: <a href="http://albroswift.websitetoolbox.com/?forum=133972">Open Topic</a> http://albroswift.websitetoolbox.com/post?id=3808373 Wed, 11 Nov 2009 22:41:45 GMT Huck http://albroswift.websitetoolbox.com/post?id=3804636 I accidentally deleted the first posting of this topic...These are some photos of past boar hunts. The fat boar with the open sight handgun was a Redhawk using Winchester 44mag ammo loaded with a 250gr Partition.The other 2 boar were taken on the same day using my Freedom Arms 454 that was also loaded with Win. factory ammo using a 260gr Partition bullet.
