Want To Buy 550 Magnum Brass/Projectiles

[whisk(e)y hunter]

Anyone have any brass, projectiles, or loaded ammo for the 550 Magnum (based off 460 WBY)?

@krish , I think I remember you have a 550 magnum or 3. Do you have any leads on the above?

Man, I think I cornered the market on the stuff when I panicked after buying mine. Where are you located? I may be able to spare some.

Quite gentlemanly Krish, I’m tapped out on it and going to make one separately from a CZ 550 action, but really appreciate the offer.

Now you need to buy it!

Here’s a post from one of our members @JD Noblin on his rifle, an incredible build. Essentially a straightwalled 460 WBY that shoots a 700 grain .550 monster projectile

Thread 'New Granite Mountain Arms 550 Magnum Left-hand Now Completed'

Mar 18, 2025

For your viewing pleasure, my gunsmith just completed this full custom left-hand rifle for a client of mine. It's chambered in the massive 550 Magnum and utilizes a Granite Mountain Arms African Magnum action. In addition to the two heavy cross bolts and recoil lug under the front bridge, a custom third recoil lug is attached to the barrel and secured through the stock forearm with an escutcheon and screw. The barrel is Pac-Nor, 30mm QD rings by Smithson, and Turnbull completed the color case work. Solids and softs for this rifle are from Cutting Edge Bullets. For comparison, the last...

I had intended to do a 505 Gibbs conversion, but through a lot of research and thought, and guidance from minds much more experienced than me, the 550 Mag looked be a much more straightforward process to still achieve 5-bore status from the venerable CZ 550.

I emailed the seller. @krish , etc.

"Does anyone know if this was done by 'Tripple River"? .. And Barrel length?

Thank you, Dan.

For what it is worth, I have one from AHR that is awesome. However, I likely wont use it as I have a superior .450 Rigby I have fallen in lust with. .550 with a lifetime of loaded ammo and components. Not for sale, but can be purchased.

I find it interesting how some wildcat a cartridge to greater than .500 Jeffery ( I really liked the cartridge, it didn’t like me) recoil was a bit much for me to be consistently accurate after 3 rounds.
Is the development of +.500 bore rifles from unfortunate experiences in the jess on elephant, or just because a better idea?
I never discount a better idea.
