Hornady Critical Duty...



Tactical-Life posted this video on Hornady's new offerings for 2012.  What stands out on the video is the new Critical Duty line of ammo.  Supposedly it offers barrier penetration without over penetrating once it hits flesh.  I can't wait for someone to test it out.  Consider me intrigued.

One other thing has me miffed though.  In the comments section Mike wrote this...
I love my guns, but promoting the shooting of elephants. Fuck you Hornady!! I’ll never buy one of your products again, grow some balls!
I can't lie, I had to respond to it but my issue is that if you watch the video it was simply a vid of what appears to be a rampaging elephant.  Environmentalist have been so successful that they don't realize that many of the wildlife sanctuaries that have been set up are allowing some species, including elephants to grow to so many animals that they are heading into inhabited areas where they are a problem.  I just don't see that short scene as promoting the hunting of elephants. Mike and the other tree huggers that have never stepped into a wooded area outside of central park in New York need to get over it.

  1. LOL. People don't think, or think they are not part of nature but set apart. When I was CA, there was a time where the 'ghetto bird' was flying over the desert hilltop behind my subdivision almost every night for two weeks and the police were mum about why until a local paper dug up that there had been a mountain lion sighting above us. Most of us were really beaked that we weren't informed of the threat, but a neighbor was shocked when I mentioned that if I saw it - I'd shoot it. In the discussion I had to explain to him that even though I might be inside and the cat was outside, I didn't know how many people, including children, would be outside between my house and the open desert. The recognition that came over his face when he realized it could be him or his wife and kids at risk was priceless.
