55 gr bullet, and BAD to get frags with 90 gr 9mm jhp, at 1800 fps, hmm?

 

[John in AR]

As long as the fragmenation doesn't come at the cost of unacceptably low penetration (not likely an issue, I wouldn't think), I don't see why it would be a bad thing.

Was there an earlier discussion on this that I missed...?

not right here, John, but many "think' that 90 gr 9mm jhp's don't "penetrate" enough. I've never seen one yet FAIL to exit an 8" thick or thicker dog's ribcage, tho. Shoving an EXPANDED jhp thru the far side rib and out thru the elastic skin is about like penetrating another 3" of chest vitals.

Are there any dogs left where you live, You kill more then a family of boat people do. I dont trust all dogs, but have not had enough trouble to kill many of them. I usually dont have any problems on foot its when I ride my Mt. bike that U graduate to target, and I carry a squirt gun full of homemade, pepper spray.

I've shot many a dog that I had no problem with, and had to let go many a dog that NEEDED shooting (along WITH its owner, in some cases) So I figure it about evened-out.

If you had no problem with it, why would you shoot it? There is something about dog's that terrify's you. You hate them like some people hate snakes. Weird, weird,weird. My notice to visitors that don't like dog's: The dog's live here YOU don't.

Good comment. When I get moved, that comment will be mounted to a board, and affixed to my gate, right next to the no trespassing sign.

I don't know what it is like in your neck of the woods, but around here if you get caught shooting cats or dogs you would likely wind up in deeper trouble than if you robbed the local bank. And God forbid you would shoot someone's hunting dog. You would just be another unmarked soggy grave out in Tate's Hell Swamp!

I can't shrink this, because I'm too computer illiterate, but here's the whole saying: The dog lives here, you don't. If you don't want dog hair on you clothes, stay off the furniture. I like my dog a lot better than I like most people. To you, she's a dog. To me she's an adopted daughter who is short, Hairy, walk's on all fours and doesn't speak clearly. Dogs are better than kids. They eat less, don't ask for money all the time, are easier to train: usually come when called, never drive your car, don't hang out with drug using friends, don't smoke or drink, don't worry about the latest fashions,don't wear your clothes, don't need a gazillion dollars for college, and if they get pregnant, you can sell the pups.

TG:
I like that whole paragraph. I am going to figure out how to doll that up a little bit and frame it. That will go good on the Den wall.

Thank you very much for it.

Terry, that's just priceless.

Like I told one ex-girlfriend who didn't like my dog. I said: "The dog was here before you, and it'll be here after you."

To most dog owners, dogs aren't pets, they're family, and they react to you killing them about the same.
