Definitely make a little difference, but knowing how to absorb it compensates. Heck, I'm 5'6'' and 165, and over 65 and I can handle a 50 BMG with no problem. My old Model 760 30-06 will leave a bruise with my long-range rounds but can be handled.

Energy isn't everything, ballistics are different with every projectile. I hunted with high powered rounds of many calibres for over 50 years, reloaded precision rounds and calculated ballistics for over 35. "Ball ammo" will just pass thru soft tissue. I've never seen a 30-06 "stay inside -have killed dozens of large critters.

I killed deer with a lighter 30-06 than that (kicks worse) when I was a pre-teen. Stature doesn't mean squat.

Depends entirely on the projectile. FMJ will punch a hole, gnarly hollow point or ballistic tip will make a mess. Standard NATO rounds are "ball' (FMJ) ammo..

Females asking for only female doctors/staff is not uncommon. A nurse in the family is one, my wife another. They have that right. I've heard "nowhere in the Bible does it state that it is not adultery if they have a medical degree". To each their own.

Last I heard, your chances of getting tetanus is around 1 in 11 MILLION. Tetanin is prevalent in certain lush grasses (mainly fescue) in early spring, which then has to be eaten by ruminants (ie, cattle), then crapped out, stepped in fresh along with a cut or puncture wound, then the wound has to not bleed enough to flush and oxygenate, AND the farmer not providing magnesium supplement (as I do). Simple...

Islamists will never stop. Any truce or 'deal' will be nothing but a lie to buy them time. They consider it honorable to deceive the infidel. The only thing that will ever stop them is death. The only death they fear is decapitation.

Developed diabetic habits early? Exactly what I do.

I'm running the other direction, just need to finish rewiring my '54 Hudson and get started on a '56 Caddy. Screw those busy-body arseholes.

The DOE had/has nothing to do with EDUCATION. It was the beginning of INDOCTRINATION.
