If I had to pick a conventional firearm for that job (not a RR or AT weapon,) I think I'd go with the Steyr 15.2mm APFSDS rifle.

Yeah, I could see that. I just like the idea of saying "15.2mm APFSDS rifle."

You know they have a round like this for the .50 eh? Its called SLAP=Saboted Light Armour Piercing.Mikey wrote:Yeah, I could see that. I just like the idea of saying "15.2mm APFSDS rifle."
Re: Government Stupidity
A Winchester in 45-70 with solid copper bullets should do the job......eventually. Although I am just a bit biased, I am a fan of the 45-70.
