Not game, but big bores.In calibre/catridge designation,say 9.3 and above.(No military stuff for any of the tank commanders etc.out there [Wink] Okay maybe the 50BMG..)

Includes anything you have owned, borrowed or had a shot of at the range one time.

If this is too extensive for some of the members it may be easier to put down what you haven't shot yet [Big Grin]

My list is limited pretty much what I have owned, since I haven't shot with other people much.The 50BMG belonged to the army [Smile] and the 416rem loaned from a friend.

375H&H
416Rem
458Win
416Rigby
460Wby
50BMG
585Geh

Jump in all!

Karl,

Ok, I'll Play:

9.3x62 = Sako
375 H&H = Mauser, Ruger RSM, Winchester, Sako
405 Winchester = Ruger #1
416 Remington = Sako
425 Express = Remington Model 30
45-70 = Ruger #1
458 Winchester = Winchester, Ruger 77, Ruger #1, and Whitworth
458 Lott = Ruger #1, Sako
50 BMG = Ma Deuce

I'll owned them all, except the last, which belonged to a rich uncle. [Wink]

At this point my list is short, with only the .375 RUM and a 45/70 Guide gun on it.

Soon my list will be longer. I barreled a .35 Whelen for my father. And classmates have barreled up a .416 Taylor, a .458 Win, and a .510 Wells. The .510 should be fun, its weighing about 15lbs and has an integerally machined brake.

Yippee, big BOOM.

458WinMag in a #1. So far only a 350gr Federal load but also have some Hornady Heavy Magnum coming.

416 Rigby with a standard 400gr load, don't know rifle.

50-140 3-1/4 with 600gr cast loaded all the way up, 5 shots seated at a bench. That was serious business.

50BMG once. Recoil not nearly as bad as the 50-140.

Also a bunch of blackpowder 40s, 45s and 50s of varying degrees of viciousness. Cool just to obscure the range with smoke...

Well the smallest sporting chamberings are a 17 Hornet, and the largest is a 600NE, and almost everything in between! Most I owned, some were borrowed, like the 600NE hammer double!

The things that belonged to the US Army were the smallest being a 30 Carbine, and the largest being a 155mm howitzer, and everything they had in between! [Cool]
