500 S&W in a lever action?
« on: August 06, 2007, 12:00:29 PM »
Will we ever get a lever action in 500 S&W?
Or is it to much pressure for a leveraction?
It think it would be the best woods gun for dangerous game made.

What about a 460 that can also shoot the 454 Catsul, and the .45 LC?

WWG makes a .50 Alaskan, but I didn't see the .500 S&W on their web site. I did find their model 04 on an internet search, but didn't see it on their regular web site.  ???
