.550 magnum caliber?

Still do. Planing on building 2 on cz 550, 416 Rigby action. Tried the ammo in the action. Functions perfectly. Now need to get them barreled as I already have stocks for them with recoil reducers.
Matter of time getting to it.

Good deal, how are you?
 
I’m not giving you a hard time, l just don’t think the 550 would be my first choice for deer. Just saying.
Me either. :). To quote Robin Williams character in Good Will Hunting, “I was being ironical.” Actually, just being a smart ass. . . no irony involved.
 
Why??? Belted, straighf wall case.....ammo???
Just buy a 500 Jeff or 505 Gibbs....
Hey IVW, when are you going to do another write up for us?
 
Getting better every day. Still have to wait for 4 more week before I come out of the cervical collar and 8lb limit for handling anything.

Good to hear.
 
Sinister Looking Cartridge, Interesting read.
 
Krish, I have more concerns with my R shoulder after multiple surgeries than my C3-C4 fusion; Take care, and follow the Doc's and Physio's instructions.

Hey Krish....glad to hear you are building a 550 Magnum. I am as well....using a Granite Mountain Arms African Magnum action and Pacnor 1-20" twist barrel. Already have the dies and projectiles from Hawk and Cutting Edge. Keep us updated on your build!

Nice to hear from you. Will contact you soon.

I guess one could build this rifle in a single shot as there aren't any videos of anyone in a hurry to shoot round two. Not even the few that manage it well.

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.
