I have my entire "library" 1984-1999 out searching for THE G&A Issue in which Ross Seyfried first premiered the .585 Nyati---I KNOW that I have it, because I have read it several times. Roll Eyes Does anyone know which MONTH/YEAR G&A issue I need to find to read the article again?!?!?!? Frowner

December, 1991.

I just had my issue out because I found some Bell brass in 577 Nitro basic and wanted to be sure it would work.

I have a Frank Wells built Nyati. I have found Huntington's the cheapest for Bertram brass and NEI makes some nice moulds.

Whats yours?

I'm afraid not. I believe he passed away a few weeks ago.

Last I heard, Frank Wells was still building guns in Tuscon.

Oops. Sorry...

I guess I'm proof that you shouldn't believe everything you read. Cool

I don't think you ever answered 338guy's question, Woodsracer.

I did originally in my second post, but unfortunately, I "Edited" it instead of "Quoting" it. Frowner

I don't have a Nyati. Frowner I have the BUG; BADLY, and am seriously wanting something bigger than my two .416 Rigbys (one CZ and one RSM).

Do I need something bigger......NO, but I still want more "shove." animal

Currently, I'm comparing the .470 Mbogo, the venerable .505 Gibbs, the .550 Mag., the .585 Nyati, and the new .585 AHR. I was looking at the .470 Mbogo, but now it seems that I'm leaning towards the .505 Gibbs for bullet selection and popularity. bewildered

Tex 21,

It was Fred Wells who passed away. No relation of Frank Wells. You did read right but it was a different gunmaker. Smiler

Cheers!
