Just for fun, enjoy! It's a lot more than just gel

 
The flash is certainly curious. I wonder what would cause that.

It’s air compression. If it compresses fast enough you reach the flash point of the atmosphere. The leading shock sits just off the nose of a flat nosed bullet and creates a pocket that compresses and then ignites as it approaches a barrier. Same thing occurs when the wound channel compresses after the initial shock. This is what happens in a diesel motor but with diesel fuel mixed into the “atmosphere.”
 
There is some chat on this forum about the old style 4 bore etc. Well, for some context....


Enjoy
 
I’m actually surprised he didn’t break his finger on the trigger guard if the explanation they gave for floor plate release is actually what happened.

Have a look af our latest post on the biggest roan i ever guided on!


I realize how hard the bug has bit. I’m on the cusp of safari #2 and I’m looking to plan #3 with my 11 year old a year from now while looking at my work schedule for overtime and computing the math of how many shifts are needed….

I'd like to get some too.

My wife (a biologist, like me) had to have a melanoma removed from her arm last fall.

Hallo Marius- do you have possibilities for stags in September during the roar? Where are your hunting areas in Romania?
