Components are easy---dies from RCBS/Huntington 577/600's. Brass is ordinary 577 Nitro just blown out to .620 by fireforming. Bullets are easy to cast or find from many sources. It's just a plain fun gun. Recoil---well, like always it's what you make of it. My tough-guy police freind cry's like a little girl while my wife shoots it all the time. 1500fps cast loads feel to me like a heavy-light gun weight 45-70. Crank up the 900's plus and it'll wake you up but I don't think its severe.

He stated that he shot a bear at 300 yards a sheep at 600 yards and several elk at 450 yards with this gun the loads listed was 300 gr at 2552, 275 gr at 2580 and 250 gr at 2711 The reason I know this is I am having a rifle being built in this caliber as we speak.
