can be obtained by shooting some of the larger caliber winchesters like the model 1886 45-90 or 45-70....another bend your nose over type rifle, is the 1873 springfield trap door rifle or carbine, also in 45-70......they kill on one end, cripple on the other! Never made it thru an afternoon of shooting with either of those beauties with out tears, or blood,....or both!! enjoy!! till...later...G.T.
