This was a fun thread to read through.

The .495 A-Square seems to me better than the rest for .510’s. Not as much capacity but easily matches a .500 nitro and shouldn’t have any feeding issues. Shame it didn’t take off.
This guys ruler has 3” twice lol.

Neat, I was just thinking about that the other day wondering why none of the 50cals replicated the 500NE ballistics of 570gr @ 2150 fps without bumping it up a notch or two like many do with 2300 fps+.

Dan,
The P-38, P-40, and early P-51's ran the Allison V12 - 1710. There were different model variants, the most notable was in the -38, one engine rotated clockwise - the other counter-clockwise. On the 38 the exhaust was ducted through the turbo which contributed to its' unique sound.

I just purely love this forum: shooting and hunting and Africa with glorious old warbirds thrown in for free!

The P-38 is a beautiful ship. idk where the obsession came from the sound .. of the Allison V12? it's distinct.
