Finally got a small batch of cases in for the 600 OK I'm building here in OZ. Been thru hell in the last 3 weeks, I needed to seek Australian Attorney General Approval. Basically the Round and calibre needed to be accepted and approved in Australia, before I could bring the cases, the barrel into Australia and build the gun.

Hopefull I have now set up a template or precedent for other Aussies wanting to build the 600 OK

I'm going to load up 3 dummy rounds and give the action to my gunsmith this Wednesday, to start work on the inletting and feeding.

Barrel & stock are still a little way off, but worth waiting for

Here's a comparison of a few bigbore rounds I own or have collected, that 600 OverKill is one very impressive round



From the left
375H&H, 375 Ruger, 375 RUM, 416 Taylor, 416 Ruger, 416 Rigby, 458 WM, 458 AccRel, 500 Accrel, 530 Woodleigh, 600 OK

Well done Rob

regards
S&F

The 700 HE or the 12 GFH being the big boys on the block.
