It can make a differnce in what you push down the pipe knowing how hard it hits the target for a clean knock down shot... I used to think the M1 carbine was all a redneck needed for brush hunting UNTILL,, seeing a wounded deer hit a creek an get away only to be shot later that season.. I traded the fella out of the carbine to keep him not to continue that every year. An no it wasnt down here in Fla.... Thanks much scubanfly.... olecarver
