    500 Weatherby

    Does anyone know anything about the 500 Weatherby? I assume it is just a 460 Weatherby necked up to .510 caliber, just like the 500 A-Square and 510 Wells. I couldn’t find anything online about it. Thanks.

    Short Barreled 450 Rigby Question

    What would be the velocity of a 500 gr bullet coming out of a 20” 450 Rigby? Do you think it would be roughly the same as a 23” 458 Lott? (I realize firing a 20” 450 Rigby would be quite exhilarating!)

    Could you neck up 416 Weatherby brass to 500 A Square? It would have to be done in several steps, but could it be done/would it work? Thanks

    Bauska (BBK-02) magazine extension

    Does anyone know who could extend the magazine capacity of a Bauska BBK-02 action (or if it is possible). I have found a 505 Gibbs with a BBK-02 action, but it only holds 2 rounds. I would like to see if it would be feasible for that action to hold 3, similar to the CZ and MRC actions. Thanks.

    500 A Square from 450 Dakota?

    Hey all! Could a 450 Dakota be rechambered to a 500 A Square? Since the Dakota is based on the 416 Rigby, and the 460 weatherby (parent case for the 500 A2) is also based on the Rigby, would this conversion be possible? Thanks for any and all insight/advice.
