Missed your post earlier today Dogfish... sounds like you have the fever also. The Patriot is a less expensive version of the Crow Magnum and given the price is probably the wiser purchase. At 62lbs. cocking effort I am guessing you are helping the boys in their plinking. smile

I have two cannons also and have shot plenty of projectiles but never a gong at three hundred yards. How big is this gong and how many shots do I get?

Way in highjacked territory now. smile
