Geeziz! That entry wound is huge!

Something looks weird about it, though.

Probably due to the angle and the fact the entry point was so close to the muzzle.

A perfect example of why shot placement is important. Guy shot hisself point blank with a 45-70 and lived to tell the tale.

Think your widdle pistol can match that power? :D

That's because the doc cut off the chunks of skin and whatnot that were hanging off.  Cleaned up the edges too.

What's the Marhsall/Sanow "one shot stop" rating for a .45-70 again?

I'm pretty sure he ceased anything resembling "aggressive behavior" after that hit.
