No shadows in my neck of the woods today! I suppose he could get a shower if he wanted...and maybe a bullet.

I don't think it's a good idea to put that online. WHO KNOWS who's checking? I love big-caliber and longe-range rifles and 1911 pistols, and I've got a few.

Next Firearm:
I can always use another 1911.

Would a 22-250 or 220 Swift be best?

Never initiate force against another. But should someone do violence to you, retaliate without hesitation, without reservation, without quarter, until you are sure that he will never wish to harm - or never be capable of harming - you or yours again.KYFHO

Depends. You could also use a .308 or even a .50BMG. You want to see a brown flutter, a red splash, or a cloud of pink mist?

With a 22-250 cranked up you see them blow before the crosshairs move from recoil... I've never shot a 220 Swift.
Now is the time for all good men to get off their rusty dustys...
