Proper way to shoot your refridgerator
As cabin fever sets in the urge to shoot your fridge is overwhelming. The right and wrong way to do this has been documented over many long winters in even colder environments. The decision of gun type and caliber needs to be considered. For instance a 12 gauge with # 8 shot will just knock the paint off. A 22 long rifle will push thru the thin metal and perhaps embed in an old bluefish in the freezer. Or not.. A better choice would be 357 mag in a golden eagle.. full penetration and pass thru. But never shoot from front to back and break the coils..best to shoot from side to side.
Now consider a 12 gauge slug from side to side and some old ham or turkey in the freezer strike area. Now that is the way it is done.

Re: Proper way to shoot your refridgerator
Since I am now enjoying some hot humid weather while at my conference, my cabin fever has been cured....temporarily at least.
This is now the oddest post I have seen.
Time to go fishin' again!

Re: Proper way to shoot your refridgerator
I try very hard to post an odd one now and then. Think I have done it.
I heard it in a rock song one time about cabin fever and shooting your fridge full of holes to warm the house up.
It was heavy on my mind.

To me that was always the best part of the magazine. I let my subscription run out when he retired.
