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!

I have 100 new PPU .375 H&H brass in my stash that is reserved for future hunting loads. In my experience with other calibers like .308 it beats the common USA made Rem / Win / Fed brass for uniformity, brass quality and durability. I just opened a new bag of Remington .375 brass this morning. And was disappointed once again. Banged up necks, uneven mouth, and two pieces had wrinkles in the neck.

Another fellow here, I think @Excessexpress has a .577 nitro Ruger No1.
Good way to get one imo

‘Tis not I who possesses such a beast, though I have missed out on a couple of doubles in auctions. One very nice St Etienne built underlever hammer gun in .577 2 3/4 in particular….. but I digress, I own no 577. For now….

Yes, now I realise it’s AussieSteve on a different forum. My mistake.
