Bubba had a big bore
Take a look at this rifle coming up for auction. If the link doesn't take you directly to the rifle it's lot #141. I've seen this cartridge before known as the 510 Wells. Comes with a Bubba inspired scope as well.

I'm sure your PH would be impressed if you were to show up on a DG hunt with this rifle.

High bid of $180!

Affordable too! Never heard of a leupold mk 4 scope with 1-16 x magnification…

Now that's a coincidence. Since only three of these guns were made according to the ad, the odds are 1 in 3 that I may have met the owner of that gun. There was a guy in my gun club who owned one of those rifles. We gave him the nickname of Dangerous Dan given what he shot. He also had a 458 Win. mag handgun. Haven't seen or heard anything about him in years and he was in his mid 80's then. The last time we spoke I mentioned that I'd like to take one shot with that monster. I'm 6' 180 lbs and he looked me up and down and stated "you ain't big enough to shoot that gun."

And what is with all that yellow crap around the scope bases. Couldn’t clean it up for the pics?

Looks like Scott from Kentucky Ballistics bought the .950 JDJ from this auction.

How many toilets can you shoot through with one brass solid from .950 JDJ? Tune in and see!

Nope. I'll stick with my trusty .500 A-Square, a/k/a the .510 Weatherby Magnum.
