4 Bore for Sale
I was in the Cabelas in Post Falls, Idaho a few days ago and they were selling a 4 Bore, I don't know if anyone was interested or not, but I thought I would post a heads up.

I am pretty sure its this rifle.

I think they wanted $109,990 for it. Plus Tax I am sure. Wink

Cabelas must not have it listed on their site yet. I can't find it in their gun library yet. That 4 bore is so KOOL!

That is an Awsome looking beast.
The video of you shooting it looks like it's controllable, especially if you can get both barrels touching at 60 yards!

How long are the barrels, 20"?
Are you loading your own? I made some 4 bore cases awhile back from 20mm Vulcan brass.

I read a story on the web sometime ago about a guy in Canada that built a 4 bore and took it to Africa for Cape Buff. He either made or had made a leather harness that would hold the gun and allow him to shoulder and fire it quickly.

I think this is the story:

It has 22" barrels. Those barrels are so huge that they look a lot shorter.
