    I don't know what the death penalty procedure is in Utah, but I suspect there's a way for him to avoid it.

    I suspect you are right about the head shot. You would not want the body shot as the victim could survive that or may be wearing a vest. At 150-200 yards to make an intentional neck shot, you would be a skilled shooter.

    home libraries, please show

    I don't have much of a library. My wife does not want to spend money on housing books that are no longer read or used. When my father died, most of his book were sold at an estate sale, I kept some. My grandfather did have a large libary of over 2700 volumes which now resides at UT Austin.

    If that is the case, I suspect they will be talking extensively to the questioner when Mr. Kirk was shot. Not an expert on police investigations, but have seen quite a few. I've seen the "hand signal" video, the guy in black sure looks like some signaling, but he could have been private security.

    What are folks' thoughts on Norma ammo for both PG and DG?

    I have all three for for different reasons for each. The solids were super cheap and used them to sight-in my scope. I use the 300g Oryx for almost everything. I have the 350g in both FMJ and Weldcore. The African PH line is now extremely hard to find. I suspect because of the Woodleigh...

    Anyone else shooting doves today?

    Sad to report, Shot a whopping two in Pearsall yesterday, same spot as last year, but with much different results. Next hunt is In Devine, getting a little concerned. This was supposed to be a banner year.

    Qatar will not carry the gun if there’s a codeshare flight. Gracy can get an exception.

    Depends on where in RSA. I took hiking boots and need Teva's or flip flops instead. All sand. One PH in Zimbabwe wears Crocs. Don't over think what you need to buy.
