COINSHOOTING..really.. from a 12 GAUGE!!

blkcloud · Apr 15, 2011

Back in the 70's a policeman was killed here in our little town from a blast of a 12 gauge loaded with dimes.. I had forgot all about it until someone on here asked what was coinshooting.. did a little googling and came up with this.. pretty interesting..

If I remember right, Billy the Kid broke jail and killed a law officer with a shotgun loaded with dimes.

figuring a range of about 40 yards, that would be one way to 'salt' a field for a club hunt!

LOL!
