I could probably handle the Rafiki but I doubt I'd want anything to do with firing Sahar. I'm just to big a wimp.

A posting I found: Westley Richards 700/577 Nitro Express Double Rifle Posted on July 11, 2013 by Rachel-Elizabeth Many years ago whilst exhibiting at the Paris Auteuils country fair, I was approached by a gentleman who had spotted an old Kynoch catalogue on my stand. It contained an article...

Found the Municion reference to it. Impressive Ballistics. Wonder what the recoil figures are on a DR.

I would like to find something on the order of 40 cases, preferably new and all the same brand. Please PM me if you have some for sale. I guess this pretty much only applies to those of you residing in the United States. Don't think I can import. Don't know though for sure. I had a box of 100...

I didn't know they were all WR. I'll add that to my base.

The one with the long neck is a .577/700 Westley Richards or it might be .700/.577 WR. Always confused me. The one on the far right is probably near .700 and beats me about the one on the left. Probably a something .700 as all the basic case look the same to me.

Hard to tell without scale. I'm going to guess it is some sort of wildcat pistol cartridge but beyond that???

I would imagine it would be fairly flat shooting as well. Good bean field gun. I believe one of the other experiments involved a squeeze bore arrangement of some kind.

Is that the goofy thing based on the shortened 20mm case? IIRC I read about it some years ago and threw up my hands. Have no idea what it's called. Sorry, hit the enter button a little late.

Going to keep the stock on it. Actually easier to handle. Time for a sling.

I believe it is German. IIRC they played with some "Hyper-velocity" stuff before they developed the 13mm AT rifle.

I have a .72 DR and it is about all I can take with heavy loads. Playing with conicals in the 780 to 1050gr range when I get my molds. Hopefully next month.

.30 WCF is good. Killed a lot of deer. If you want to be different go with a .32 Winchester Special. Nothing more than a .30 WCF necked up for a .32 bullet. The 7-30 Waters is very close pressure wise to the .30WCF. .32-40 WCF if you want something kind of old school. .338 Marlin Express is...
