I am not sure I would want to shoot it, but would love to see it!!

I would imagine the recoil would get your attention.

Are you building it for a.specific hunt , or just for fun?
 
What weight projectile you shooting thru that and what velocity do you expect? Intense looking rig.
 
I have to ask - has anybody hunted with this cartridge?
How is recoil?

I had to look on internet, to get idea, and if online sources are correct it goes up to from 14 to 19.000 foot pounds. This is comparable to 50 BMG.

375 HH is up to 4.400 foot pounds for comparison. Just a baby compared to this.
 
Neat rifle!

I shot a 600 NE some years ago and the recoil certainly woke you up. I think Id pass on a gun this light though...

thanks for your reply bob , is it feasible to build a 444 on a P14/M17 , or is the no4 enfield easier to build? i know where i can buy a lothar walther barrel in 44, 1-38 twist , but i think with a barrel crown of .650" the profile is too light .
