I think so but I wasn't sure enough to name it. I don't remember if that was the first name, the hunting round name, or the new name for the pistol ammo. Pretty sure it was the pistol ammo, I think the first name, seems like the second pistol name on reflection. All of this may be dead wrong though. It has been a long time ago.




I don't take any round lightly. A lot of people have been killed with BB guns and pellet guns. I know of two people shot in the head with a twenty-five. One was shot at about 75', killed him graveyard dead. Another one, was at contact range or close to it in a guy's forehead. Killed him graveyard dead too!

One of the most feared pistols in the old days, wild west days, was a .22. I think it was black powder and even more anemic than the modern .22 short. Somebody would often carry several of these little pistols and empty both in a person. This was before x-rays and all a doctor could do was probe, cut, and chase a bullet which might veer two or three times when it hit a bone or sometimes just heavy tissue. Before anesthesia for the most part too. The lead bullets coated with lard or grease had to come out. Often the patient didn't survive, even when they did it had to natural born suck!

watching pool in most cases is boring.

watching exciting players play pool is fun.

if you were ever around when guys like keith, ronnie, fats, red, beenie, crazy bruce, u.j. , earl, busti, mellon, nevel,miz, jersey red,scotty townsend,
mike seigal, etc, etc. were in a room or playing.

people would gather around the tables to watch and listen.

those kind of players made pool and brought new players in as it made pool something exciting to watch. and talk about
