Aye All,
Reminds me of a certain Highland 'gentleman' involved in the surreptitious removal of deer

Used to use a .308 Magnum rifle to remove Squire 'Battleship' locks from gates at a range of 10m max

Took between 3 and 5 rounds to acheive the desired effect, to gain entry or exit.
We had several interesting 'meetings'

and I'm pleased to say I'm still here!
My regards to you all, Bill.
