30-500?
While watching a hunting show on the tube I heard reference made about a 30 cal built using 500 J brass. Has anyone else heard about this and can you send me in the direction of more info?
Thanks,
Frank

If it’s just a necked down 500 Rimless Jeffery, maintaining its body length, it would be one “BIG SUCKER” at 146 grains H2O. Wink

I can't see it gaining much over the 30-378 weatherby, other than doubling the price of brass and buring your barrel out even sooner.

Unfortunately there wasn't much or any info made. I thought it to be a rather unique combo.
