If it is alll the same to you, I'll defer shooting that "Big Boy" to someone else. I have absolutely NO interest in shooting that sucker! Lips Sealed

I'd say "more power to you" but that would be inappropriate in this case Grin

I'm in for one, just wish I had an action for it. I wonder if an old Vary pistol action would work. I feel this is "the" needed round to finish up a fine collection of rifles? Thanks for the heads-up. Wonder what it like off the bench?  Grin

wear a helmet with a good wide chinstrap and fasten it.  the recoil might dislocate your jaw.  might want to cinch up all your other straps too! Wink doubt it'll make big inroads in the benchrest community but it might solve the cross wind issues on some ranges


what guns were thye gonna put it in?

I had to ask about an action. The reply was they had one. I'm thinking PAIR in cross draw shoulder holsters. The real killer with the duce is at a two bore that means a ball of 3500 grains, for the unwary out there that is one half pound.

So what we have here is the duce and a half.

This should be the end of projectile disfuntion! Tongue

Somewhere I have an article I saved from an Outdoor Life mag. It is about a gent in Uk who at that time was building 2 bore shotguns. He used a break-action single shot with a barrel that must have been 40" - 48" long. I believe the thing would dwarf a .50 BMG. The weight was, I believe, above 20 pounds and would diminish the recoil considerably. At least I'm hoping. Were it available, I'll try anything once shooting that is!

Can we neck it down to take phonograph needles and fit it up to the world famous Crumbling Block pistol action?   Grin  How about an Ackley Improved version?   Wink
