Just got off the phone with my dog man.
They killed another today.
About a 75 pound female. Same dogs, a bit over a mile chase.
Glad I got mine yesterday!

Good work "Old Fat Guy" (remember you said it first)!!!
I'm sad that Spud and Purdy weren't in the hero shots. I hope you let them sniff the hide.

Purdy "claimed" it and ran Spud off of it.
I'll show you pictures when I see you next week

"Is it a bullet failure if the gas check comes off?
Big Ol' Punkin-Head!"
No, it's not a bullet failure. The job of the gas check ends at the muzzle.
I have recently acquired a Ruger Super Redhawk in .480 Ruger.
I too like those "Big Ol' Punkin-Heads!" ......... LOL!
Congrats on a FINE cat!!!
Three 44s

Three .44s,
Thanks for the compliment.
The gas-check comment was tongue-in-cheek.
I figured some guys, somewhere, would argue ad nauseum about it, forgetting the critter was dead.
And this is what happens when the Ol' Purdy dog gets her sniffer onto a lion!
It becomes hers! Spud never had a chance.

I would guess that he did the wooping up on the other cat. Maybe even killing it?

Okay, you guys.
Father Airedale56 is taking confessions this evening.
I spoke to John Linebaugh a couple of weeks ago. He's blaming ME for a sudden demand on .500 Linebaugh conversions flowing into the shop. He says we're killing him!
He says his phone rings and it's the same story:
"I saw where a guy in Wyoming killed a big lion with one of your guns and I want one."
Any of you guys ordered one? C'mon, confession is good for your soul.
