While trying to decide on what to post about on Numismatic Monday I thought, “Why not post about my two favorite pastimes in one article?”

After congratulating myself on such an excellent idea I was left with the dilemma of what exactly to write about. I did not do any shooting this weekend (I went to a Bible Teaching conference near Hagerstown, MD). I certainly don’t want to complain about the price of 7.62 ammo, that is like shooting fish in a barrel, everyone is complaining about the lack of availability and ever increasing price of 7.62×39 ammo.

Just then old_painless and his website The Box ‘O Truth came to mind and remembered that he tested an age old tale of shooting dimes from a 12 gauge shotgun as a self defense load. Well, old_painless just can’t resist shooting things out of a 12 gauge that aren’t really supposed to be shot, so away he went. And his buddy, Tman, took pictures for all of us to see.

16 dimes on the paper

You can see the entire day’s shooting at old_painless’s website, the boxotruth.com or you can follow this link to see the dime question answered.
