Any .577 NE rifles in use out there?

Here is a couple pictures of my 577.

I believe Hamilton Bowen only made 2 3/4” rifles so that the recoil wouldn’t be so nasty. SSK have made a decent amount of full 3” Nitro Ruger #1’s and some 600JDJ’s, 577 opened up for .620 bullets. I have heard of receivers cracking but can’t confirm if it’s happened. If everything goes right, the middle of next month I’ll be using my Hollis 577-100-750 for Cape Buffalo, used to be owned and used by Tony Sanchez Arino for years. Using 750 Woodleigh Solids and RE 15 with Dacron.

Yes sir, we are out here but we are few. The 577 is mighty indeed.

I would love to see photos of Tony’s gun. What’s the story on acquiring it? That gun could tell some stories for sure!
