    Thanks T-Bone
    Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.

    It cost s me $3.00 a round to shoot my 50 cal desert eagle so i can't even afford to practice much lest carry it.
    Remember when you do carry one that theer is a great responsibilty that goes with it and do not ever pull it lest you are ready to use it.

    My motto always was; I'd rather have 12 try me than 6 carry me but knowing that makes it easier for me to walk away from crazy people and not engage in confrontations that could lead to something serious .
    As I get older and closer to my journey into eternity that some how does not matter at all..But preparing for the journey does!!

    I saw the same rounds in a Cabela's catalog. They were advertised for $1 per round. If I am not mistaked they were WOLF brand.

    I used to own/run an indoor pistol range, and we rented out our .50 Cal Desert Eagle for $10 plus $1.50 a round. I would buy the ammo wholesale and got the .50 cal for $0.75 a round. Those were the good old days. Let's just say.... "I ain't shot since then."

    What happen to the days when the bigger the caliber the better? Is this what I have to look forward to? LOL

    Yeap Luke, when you get ole and feebly and your pilot light goes out everything gets smaller, i used to get pounded by a 12 guage shotgun now if i shoot one it's a 16 guage my deer rifle was a 30-026 wit h180 gr bullets now it's a 220-250 with 40 grain and my pistol is a 22 caliber sometimes a pellet pistol.
    John wayen once said power is the size of the bore but if you can 't hit with that 50 caliber better leave it at home, Kojak-o-lantern!!!bwahahhhhhhhhhhaa

    Heads up on the Wolf brand ammo (Since you mentioned it):

    I have literally burnt through THOUSANDS OF wolf brand cartridges, in just about every caliber they make. It is a VERRRRRRRY dirty ammo. The only reason I shot it was because it was cheap, and I knew that EVERY time a shot my handguns/rifles, I would clean the living poop out of them.

    I have cleaned dozens of guns, and you should see the amount of black, nasty, tar like resin wolf will leave on your firearms. If you use Wolf, do yourself a favor and clean your firearms everytime.... which you should anyways....
