An older friend who has passed away now built me a 577 on a 10 gauge action. It’s ugly but it shoots good . It’s regulated with 90grs of varget and a 650gr bullet. He called a nitro for black load.

How do you add photos??
You can just drag and drop your images into your post and they should upload automatically.

Otherwise start watching this video at 13 minutes into it.

 
Looking forward to seeing your photos. The nice thing about the larger bore double rifles is that they don't seem too picky about what you feed them. I have had good luck with Varget and cast 650 grain bullets in mine for reduced loads, but the one that stands out is 75 grains of IMR-4198 and 590 grain cast bullets. It will shoot these to exactly the same POI as my full house loads and will put 4 into two inches at 35 yards.

Had an excellent classifieds transaction with JoninCO. A truly honest and standup member. I wouldn't hesitate at all to deal with him again. Thanks, J!

Hi Lance, Hope you well. I collect Mauser rifles and they are very much part of my cultural history in Africa. Would you consider selling the rifle now a year on ? I'd like to place it in my collection of Mauser rifles. Many thx

I saw where you hunted elephant with backcountry safaris in Zimbabwe.
Was looking to book an elephant hunt and wanted to know how your hunt went
and if you would recommend them.

Thanks
Mike
hi, do you know about lions hunters, leopard hunters, and crocodiles hunters of years 1930s-1950s
