500 Jeffery Club

I gotta get off this forum you boys are killin me. I JUST got my first "big bore" a little 416 and after reading this thread yall have me ready to skip the measly 458's altogether and go straight to a 500+. The bad part is I don't even need the 375 or 416 I anyway have I sure don't need a 50 lol
But you absolutely must have a 600 nitro express ! 900 grain bullet rocking along at 2050 fps out of 26 inch barrels. You will learn to love it . After you get hooked on a 600 a 416 anything will feel like shooting a 22 .

I think a 600 may always be out of my willing price range, though I'd love to have a double some day, but the 500, 505, 585, 577's are at least a possibility.
 
I joined the club yesterday. I have not fired mine but I have shot a couple of her sisters over the years.

Finally got a chance to try out the 500J. Not much of a run….just 6 shots offhand. 3 x 25 meters and 3 x 50 meters. She’s near enough for what I need.

I'm unfortunately on a diet. Presently in VA hospital as Agent Orange finally caught up with me. Cancer and I no longer can speak. If all goes well I'll be out of here and back home in Thailand by end of July. Tough road but I'm a tough old guy. I'll make it that hunt.

Nice one there. I guided for mulies and elk for about 10 or so years in northern New Mexico.
