Is it true that Armadillos are good eating?  Saw the bald guy (Andrew Zimmern) from the Food Network eating one down Mexico way.  Guy I knew from Texas when I was in the Navy said they would kill your dog if you let it chained up outside at night and could tear a man's arm off when they were po'd.  Any truth to that or was it a big fat Texas
fib?

We call em possum on the half shell.  I don't eat possum either, seen too many crawling out of carcarasses.

My actual plinking load is now a full power loading of IMR 4227 and the 200 gr. Hornady XTP. I have enough room and several good places to shoot. I have gotten a bit lazy for casting bullets and the expense of jacketed is worth it. In fact I am more likely to plink with jacketed bullets because I didn't have to cast them. I hunt with a full powered 250 gr. Kieth semi wadcutter bullet and can't say enough good about the flat nosed cast bullet. My rifle does have the 1 in 38 twist and with the top loads it is very accurate. I can shoot a 22 for quiet plinking if I just have to.
