The "GREY GHOST" bigdoggy700's 700 AHR with photos
45 Chapstick? rotflmo I have not heard that one!
That rifle is the ball$!!! A little light colored for me, but absolutely incredible. Makes my 375 Ruger Alaskan look like a 22. That thing is just awesome!

700 AHR is a proprietary case of new manufacture. You could drop one inside a 20mm M103 case and shake it like morracas.

Wow. I'm speechless. Are you going to use it for any hunting? Do you have any pictures of your Owen 4 bores to share?

Thanks for sharing.

StormsGSP,
There are a few pictures of one of my Ken Owen 4 bores posted under the double rifle section of Nitro express .com forums. go to the 3rd page of double rifles and scroll down, you will see the Ken Owen 4 bore post with pictures added. If someone knows how to copy them and put them on this sight, they are welcome to.

Carumba and shazam. That's a lot of horsepower. Do you mind taking a group photo of your big bores? I would like to see that.

530 --
the 700ahr is a custom case for AHR
the 600 Overkill has designed b Robgunbuilder here, and is a custom case
the 585 ahr is a 600 OK necked to .585

the 550 magnum/express were designed by RNS here
the 550 flanged by me
the 550 gibbs variously by idahosharpershooter, and rns.. both are basically a 550flanged without a rim ... which is funny.. the 577 case is the parent of the 577/500 case, which when derimmed and necked to .505 became the 505 gibbs, which is the same with the 550 flanged, as it is an improved 577/550 ...

and your handles namesake round is why woodleigh wouldn't make 550 bullets, just due to the very limited number of .530s actually made .... which, i am happy to report, there's far more .550s out there now than .530s
