Been thinking (dangerous) about "improving" the 577/450 case and necking to .500" to have a near 500NE capacity for a 500 SW NEF single shot conversion. Thinking cal neck, 20 thou taper, 35 degree shoulders. A rimless version would be a helova cool short action round. 600 grains@ 2150 at moderate pressure. Any thought besides expelatives? 577 BME 3"500 KILL ALL 358 GREMLIN 404-375 *we band of 45-70ers* (Founder) Single Shot Shooters Society S.S.S.S. (Founder) | ||

ummm... why not just chamber for the 500NE 3" and load it to whatever pressure you can handle? Rich Buff Killer | |||

Have you ever shot a 500 S&W Handi there Boomy? LoL 6lbs rifle with lots of comb drop does not equal a good time, I can only put about 6 rounds through mine before I call it good. If you think every possible niche has been filled already, thank a wildcatter! | |||

Milehigh I have a friend that has one of those handi things. Of course it was left to me to set up for him, load, scope, what have you. I might catch hell over this, but what a POS. I could barely keep any load inside a foot tub at 50 yds. Not much recoil, but I just got a bad taste in my mouth with that thing. Might have been only that one, I don't know as I will most likely never monkey with one again.

Jeffe Yeah, maybe I just got a bad one. I don't know. But you say they are now Remingtons??? That is enough to turn me way off of them now! So guess I am out on them, not that I was in. I will stick with the 1885s. Michael http://www.b-mriflesandcartridges.com/default.html The New Word is "Non-Conventional", add "Conventional" to the Endangered Species List!

I thought the NEF WAS available in 7.62x39...or maybe thats the Rossi...hmm. Boomy - the NEF 500 is a straight beast, but I'm sure it'll be right at home in your gun safe haha. Remember this though...the S&W has a comped barrel, and actually weighs like 2lbs MORE then the NEF. It will get your attention If you think every possible niche has been filled already, thank a wildcatter! | |||
