I have a second auction catalog from Poulin that lists a number of Keiths rifles but they are scattered throughout. #3286 is a Sako L461 Vixen Mannlicher carbine in .222. It appears you may be right about his son selling the rifles private cause I can`t find his big bores like the 400 Whelen...
I have one for sale... Its new/old stock... let me know if interested and I`ll post photos. Interarms sold off their parts to Sarco. I had a Whitworth 375 H&H and bought the extra wood stock in case I messed up the wood while hunting. Traded the Whitworth 375...... For all intents and purpose...
Monish, Sorry to tell you but the Elmer Keith display in Cabela`s is no longer there.... All of his guns were auctioned off... Below are a few pictures of some of his guns I was lucky enough to take when I was there. James
I believe Edward finished his elephant with a Punch bullet, from his 454, that was through the head and never recovered..... About the best bullet for penetration from a handgun that was ever made.......
The loaded cartridge is the 500WE w/420gr Punch as made by Grizzly Ammo while below are the two Freedom Arm`s model 83`s I carried. The scoped 10" barreled 475 Linebaugh carried a handload using 390gr Punch bullets over 296 for anything over 50yds while the 6" open sight 500 Wyoming Express used...
I am good friends Edward, who posted above, and just wanted to show what the Punch bullet can do. Took this buff in 2014 using 420gr Punch bullets as loaded by Grizzly Ammo from a 6" FA`s 500WE.... Distance 40 or so yards. No bullets recovered.....
As Edward said above "shot placement is most important" and a scope will help to place those handgun bullets where they have to go. More so if there is any cover involved....Besides, you will have to scope your handguns to get them into South Africa... As for your caliber choice, I know a...
Spike, The 500 Wyoming Express is a round made by Freedom Arms for their model 83 frame.... The m-83 cylinder was to small for any of the other 500 cartridges because of the rim sizes. The FA`s designers decided to add a belt, just like a 458WM, to their 50 caliber round so it would fit their...
For penetration a good hard cast bullet, Barnes Buster or Punch as loaded by Grizzly ammo will get that handgun bullet where you want it to go... Never recovered any of the 50 cal. 420gr Punch bullets from my buff... A friend from Texas used a 325gr Swift A-frame on a broadside shot on a Cape...
