Other than being a curio, what good is it?  Too heavy.

What Is A Veteran?
A 'Veteran' -- whether active duty, discharged, retired, or reserve -- is someone who, at one point in his life, wrote a blank check made payable to 'The United States of America,' for an amount of 'up to, and including his life.' That is honor, and there are way too many people in this country today who no longer understand that fact.

With all due respect to guys who like their 500 smith and wessons, this rifle reminds me of that smith. Really big and heavy, and ostensibly useful for hunting, but mostly about being the most powerful in some way.


As always with these things, Im not against it. But Id like to hear why an owner likes his.

Given a choice between this and a grizzly bear...I might fight the bear with a knife.

If the environmentalists are able to restock some T-rex like they did the wolves, I might want one... but I like my cannons on a carriage and fired with a string.

You mean this wouldn't make a good squirrel gun?  Even for the monsters that GBO member Shaner hunts?  ;) (Apologies in advance to Shaner, I was commenting on his monster squirrel avatar, I tried to copy it and post it here but was unable to).
