I Have Added Some Clips Of The 577 T.Rex
Ladies and Gentlemen,
I have added a few clips of people shooting the 577 T.Rex in my thread at the top of this forum.
Thought some of you might enjoy them.

fairgameSaeed,
Is the footage which well illustrates 'knockdown power'?
If so it is extremely entertaining.
Yes it is.
Which just goes to show that one does need this sort of monstrosity to kill the largest game in this world.
Walter loves to show them clips of my elephant hunts, where the elephat drops like a sack of potato.
"You see, that is where you need this gun. Smaller ones will not kill the elephant."
Conveniently forgetting to tell them that I use a 375, not a 577.

Not a "run of the mill" .375 though.

The first elephant I have ever shot was with a plain old 375H&H, in push feed Remington rifle.
It was a total anticlimax, as I had already practiced in my mind that I would fire the first shot, reload as fast as I could, and continue firing.
Instead, the poor elephant just dropped as if hit by lightning, without ever knowing what had happened.
