bigdoggy700J d Jones had several of these made about 10 years ago. McMillan does not make the action to handle this cartridge anymore. only 7 or 8 were made years ago. Kid this gun gave off about38,600 ft.lbs of energy and fired a 3600 grain bullet at almost 2200 ft/sec. The reason you would never have one is that they weighed between 85 and 110 lbs. WAY TOO HEAVY for your tastes!!

CardinalSafarikid, just get Anzio to build you a 10lbs version of this
http://www.anzioironworks.com/20MM-TAKE-DOWN-RIFLE.htm1600gr bullet at 3300fps, approx 600gr powder.
A light gun should have enough recoil, even for you!

GeorgeSYes, I fired that behemoth back in 1997. It is one impressive sumbitch!
There is also a .750JDJ, built for the same customer.

RobgunbuilderYes, I've known about it and a few other 20mm varients made by a bunch of guys for a long Time. I deceided my niche was to stick to the max that could be shoulder fired and luged around . I have a shell holder action I made that will hold a 20mm. Probably the borchardt will also.-Rob
