Who's got the biggest?

would be nice if it would stick around, Mr. Hubel is having brass manufactured in bulk by Bertram. i already have more brass then i will use in my life time (200 pieces).

the 140gr load of IMR 4350 is a very low pressure load. the max load for the 577 NE 3" is 135gr of IMR 4350.

i made a typo here, the correct max for the 577 NE 3" is 135gr of H4350 NOT IMR 4350.

meh im pretty a sure a 750gr bullet at 2100fps would take down just about any animal that has ever lived. i would feel pretty comfortable hunting Jurassic Park with this cartridge.

My 1890s vintage 4-bore shoots a 1400-grain ball at 1750 fps with 120 grains of Blue Dot for 9300 ft lbs of energy. Do I get a prize?

Rumor has it first prize is a replacement rotator cuff :D
 
Hey Cal. I actually regularly check out your blog t get me big bore fix.

You sir win a reprieve from all that power, just message me and I'll take that 4-bore off you on a permanent basis ;) I'm happy to make that sacrifice!
 
Idaram: Rotator cuff has been done!
Jimbob: Thanks for the offer--made out of true unselfishness. On my blog you will see a Jeffery 8-bore box lock for sale. I will put it and lots of other stuff on the double rifle section here when I get motivated to sit in front of the screen for a long period of time.
Cheers, gents.

Dixie Gun Works 1861 7 lb cannon.

I win. ;)


And no, not mine, but it is my sister's father in law's.
 
Well this is a old thread revived so here goes, 505 Gibbs, Barret 99 in 50 BMG and soon a 585 HE. You can blame Matt for the 585 after talking to him at SCI in 2015
 
Best I can do is a .512 caliber revolver.
 
Royal27 I like the cannon, might be a tough go carrying it through the dense bush 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 .
