Now the brand new ones are the Ranger-T Series. T meaning Talon.
Once I find some land I can shoot water jugs on, I want to test both the Black Talon and the T-Series. I wish to see them expanded side by side. I will post pics of the test if I ever find a place to do it. . . .

I remember very well when they were pulled by Winchester; my partner (while I was working as an Armed Courier) and I discussed the bizarre humor of Janet Reno's speech about how we needed "safer bullets" at great length. ...And then there was the 'faked' news story (I think it was from NBC) about the new "Black Rhino" ammunition...

Anyway... None of this explains exactly what "BS" you seemed to imply you'd have to put up with if you had to shoot someone with Black Talons.

Besides firearms enthusiasts, no one gives a flip-flyin' hoot what type of bullets are shot through a gun.

They might be interested in the caliber or the action (I heard a news report on WABC once about the fact that a "three hundred and eighty caliber automatic handgun was used") but (except for us) no one (else - lawyers, judges, juries, news/media, et cetera) cares about "ammo".

You never know what some left wing air head of a DA might try to spin to a jury.

These are Black Talons!! They were taken off the shelves because there so deadly, ect. . . . And the jury knowing nothing about ammo may be lead to believe the nonsense.

I would carry em if thats all I had. But there such a nice collectors piece, So insted of useing them, sell em to meeee!!

Thats a loaded question it depends on what I'm carrying. I usually carry a .45acp so I went with Remington (Golden Sabers)
