Who's got the biggest?

would be nice if it would stick around, Mr. Hubel is having brass manufactured in bulk by Bertram. i already have more brass then i will use in my life time (200 pieces).

the 140gr load of IMR 4350 is a very low pressure load. the max load for the 577 NE 3" is 135gr of IMR 4350.

i made a typo here, the correct max for the 577 NE 3" is 135gr of H4350 NOT IMR 4350.

meh im pretty a sure a 750gr bullet at 2100fps would take down just about any animal that has ever lived. i would feel pretty comfortable hunting Jurassic Park with this cartridge.

My 1890s vintage 4-bore shoots a 1400-grain ball at 1750 fps with 120 grains of Blue Dot for 9300 ft lbs of energy. Do I get a prize?

Rumor has it first prize is a replacement rotator cuff :D
 
Hey Cal. I actually regularly check out your blog t get me big bore fix.

You sir win a reprieve from all that power, just message me and I'll take that 4-bore off you on a permanent basis ;) I'm happy to make that sacrifice!
 
Idaram: Rotator cuff has been done!
Jimbob: Thanks for the offer--made out of true unselfishness. On my blog you will see a Jeffery 8-bore box lock for sale. I will put it and lots of other stuff on the double rifle section here when I get motivated to sit in front of the screen for a long period of time.
Cheers, gents.

Dixie Gun Works 1861 7 lb cannon.

I win. ;)


And no, not mine, but it is my sister's father in law's.
 
Well this is a old thread revived so here goes, 505 Gibbs, Barret 99 in 50 BMG and soon a 585 HE. You can blame Matt for the 585 after talking to him at SCI in 2015
 
Best I can do is a .512 caliber revolver.
 
Royal27 I like the cannon, might be a tough go carrying it through the dense bush though.

Currently doing a load development on a .404 Jeffrey... it's always surprising to load .423 caliber bullets into a .404 caliber rifle. But we love it when we get 400 Gr North Fork SS bullets to 2300 FPS, those should hammer down on buffalo. Next up are the Cutting Edge solids and then Raptors... load 200 rounds of ammo for the customer and on to the next gun!
To much to political shit, to little Africa :-)
Spending a few years hunting out west then back to Africa!

Hello. If you haven't already sold this rifle then I will purchase. Please advise. Thank you.

I doubt you are interested in any trades but I was getting ready to list a Sauer 404 3 barrel set in the 10-12 price range if your interested. It has the 404J, 30-06 and 6.5 Creedmoor barrel. Only the 30-06 had been shot and it has 7 rounds through it as I was working on breaking the barrel in. It also has both the synthetic thumbhole stock and somewhere between grade 3-5 non thumbhole stock
