Available in calibers:.300 Win Mag,9.3x64,.358 Norma,.375 H&H,.404 Jeffery,.416 Rem.,.458 Win.Mag.,.416 Rigby,.450 Rigby,.460 Short A-Square,.470 CAPSTICK,.495 A-Square and .500 Jeffery.4-Shot magazine capacity,6-Shot total capacity.Removable magazine.Double triggers.Express Sights. Does anyone here have any other knowledge of this product.I like the weapon except the removable mag.I thought it would be of interest to everyone here.  | ||

Quote: That has the be the most accurate and funiest description of that rifle as well as the most concise. The gun was an answer to a question that was never asked, and has the basically has the worst qualities of either weapon system. | |||

But if two negatives equal a positive... Then two push feeds equal...a CRF?? It's definitely the platypus of big game rifles. | |||

I was developed by Josef Szecsei in Windsor Ontario, Canada a few years back.And he at the time, when he sent me a brochure, was looking to find a company to make them, and that Company in the EU got into making them a while back. They are ok if caliber isn't too big. Had trouble with someone overdoing a 700 in one, with one of them coming apart.I think the company keeps calibers down to 50 cal now.Ed. | |||

They're at the SCI convention every year and every year a few guys with either: 1. More money than sense or 2. A strange sense of humor or 3. A fascination with magnificant but impractical workmanship put out major dough and buy a couple. They are amazing feats of engineering and machining but wholly without value in the bush. Heavy? Yeah! Clumsy? Hoo boy! Funny Looking? Snicker . . . Snarf . . . Boo Haw Haw Haw Haw!!! | |||

Looking at the size and weight of that monster, I guess you could beat your quarry to death with it if you've missed it after 6 rounds? Sheesh... | |||
