Good article
Did not know Barns was making 550 bullets.

They did a custom run for me.

How many 550 rifles are out there now?
I always admired your pioneering.

I really don't know how many. I know that there are two being built right now and I am talking to another hunter about building one who I have shippped brass and bullets to.

Well done buddy.

Great read!

Let's see; there were ten on the original group buy and Neal's original, that's 11. I can think of at least five builds mentioned here since then (including Brockman's) and the law of probabilities says that this may be 10%-20% of what's really out there. Then Michael Sherz may have built several more. So probably close to 50 or more.

Add to that several 550 Express rifles and at least one 550 Flanged, both by Jeffeosso. You guys and RIP have been prolific and we all owe you for a lot of entertainment. I know I get the giggles when I let someone shoot mine...

We've built three and have another one on the bench now. Great cartridge!!! Functions well through the CZ action with a staggered mag box set-up. Plenty of power.

I just found out that there are 2 complete rifles and 1 being built in SA

Hi Neal
That is a pretty good number of rifles for your 550 Magnum. How are things going? Wishing the best for you.

I got to hunt with the gent named Danie that was mentioned in the artical this year. Hell of a nice young man...and he said the 550 mag was kick ass!!!

Great write up!!!
