The Virginian Quote

[Ryker, Trampas and Randy are telling tall tales in the hotel's saloon.]
Trampas: That ain't nothing. Why I had a rifle one time that could knock down a prarie dog two miles away.
Ryker: That so?
Trampas: Why I had the range measured by a licensed surveyor. Two miles even. That was his sworn testimony.
Randy: I had a long rifle like that one time. Carried quite a bit further though.
Trampas: Furthur?
Ryker: Three miles.
Randy: Carried so far I had to use smoked and salted bullets.
Trampas: Smoked and salted bullets?
Randy: Well like I said, it killed at such a distance, if I didn't use them smoked and salted bullets, the game would spoil before I could get to it.
