Me too. I have no problems about a possibly wrong animation, but I hoped that EW would rework the damage for the permitted species. Actual I don't use it anymore. Unfortunately.

Shot at a distance of 19.9 meters - RIGHT between the eyes with the 45 Long Colt.
It ran for about a half mile.
I tracked it down and stood there WAITING for it to die.
ZERO HV.

I have shot alot of Cowboy Action Shooting - even with light black powder loads/lead wad cutter slugs...

It should have dropped in it's trax.
The back of its head blown out or the neck roast shredded.

Just sayin...
It ain't right.
I may be a noob... but I still have fun!
Trigger time = FUN!

In this game, bones are made of steel, and the .45 is about the worst handgun. Thus follows that shooting bones with a .45 is about the worst you can do. ;)

It really is a shame the way this iconic classic which reigned supreme during the period of the American Old West Cowboy has been represented in this game. The 45 long Colt is really a great round and very powerful but you wouldn't know it by this game which is why I've dubbed it the Champion of the ill fated award of "Master Dust Collector of the EHR"
An old saying about this Old West era goes like this "God created man, Samuel Colt made them equal"

What a horrible disappointment this weapon is. It was the absolute worst representation in the entire arsenal until they introduced the 'candy cane' 8x57 IS, but the difference there is at least it is "only" the putrid reskin of a great firearm. This monstrosity is wrong in nearly every single important aspect, especially on the range. How could they be so disrespectful to the actual models with these horrible representations, while in others they are so attentive to detail and true to the originals?

Honestly, I took it on 1 hunt, maybe 2 short ones and instantly regretted it- the 17HMR and especially with the new high power rounds os more powerful than this thing.
Until this comp of BC's, i've never once thought about using it - but I had to open my mouth and bring it up :lol: ~
There was one weapon though that was much worse or at least as bad and that was the Python bow before they came out with that new sight and increased it's power. Before that happened I wanted to throw it in a trash can it was so weak and worthless - but when they made those changes? holy cow man, she became my favorite weapon of the whole list. That was the best weapon upgrade of all time for me - but I don't see that these types of things are up for discussion like they once were. It seems they've settled into a mode that's Well we will certainly mention your comments and suggestions but most likely this is how it's going to be for the time being, thank you for your patronage - have a nice day. ~ and it's off to file 13
