Now that’s an interesting idea. Sort of like a .470 Capstick Ultra Mag. Lol

heh -- yeah .. i've done the most pragmatic versions of these.. the 470 accrel (shortened RUM) and 476 AccRel, shortened Rigby .. both fit in standard length actions - and 2350 (470) and 2500 (476) are easily done in them

Didn't a couple of Australian blokes get them and also the name changed from AR to AccRel

yes on the lads, no on the name.. i was asked, during the design process, to not name them AR for political reasons around not allowing AR anything
