Great pics guys! :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :vcool:

Cool pics. Makes me want a m38 or 44 even more! I was getting some pretty decent fireballs out of my 91/30 off and on tonight at the indoor range but nothing like that. Maybe 8" in diameter?

I have seen a few my rifles made when I was shooting at dusk, never got any pics of them as it's hard to hold a camera and shoot at the same time .

I clipped that from a video that shows the grass flattening with each shot and after about half a second you can hear the round punching through a half inch plate, but the site won't upload the MP4 format. Apparently I'm technologically challenged.

MP4 is a continual pain in the ass, however you tube will upload it, and you can link to the forum from there.

This was video shot to show the sticky bolt I was getting. Long since fixed. I like it because you can hear the round punching through the plate.
