Gary does amazing work. I love big bore handguns. That being said, I ain’t pulling the trigger on that one (literally or financially)!
 
Ooof I wonder if that will hold up for any length of use. Seems awfully optimistic with the sights.
 
Not a chance in hell. At only 52 I have more arthritis than I’d like…which I attribute to at least some degree of shooting big bore handguns, with way too hot of loads, way too much. Just parted with my last few Linebaugh built guns as I’ve decided abusive recoil from big bore rifles is better at this station of life. lol.

I’ve had a couple 500 Linebaugh Long (aka 500 max if built by Bowen or Huntington) and that was my threshold. Hamilton Bowen quit agreeing to make guns in the chambering since he personally confirmed accuracy of every gun he built, and he had no desire to shoot the cartridge any longer.

This gun, just seems like a bad idea waiting to happen…in a hey hold my beer and watch this kind of way. That said, if I saw it reemerge in a YouTube title, I’d likely watch it. lol.
 
Woah, now! I believe that this was a product of a "double dog dare!"

I will be looking for a set of these when my .505 is done... sadly not cashed up right now for these. :(
Need anything in trade?
Cheers,

what kind of velocity does the 140 grains list, curious how they would fit in with my current 130 gr, supply of 270s. maybe a pic of the box data listing vel. and drop. Oh and complements on that ammo belt, nice.
