CZ550 .505 Gibbs

[boomer68]

I just placed an order for one. It should take about 4-6 weeks. I may regret this come range day...lol

They have one at the Cabelas near me. Massive rifle. Can't wait to hear how it shoots for you!

 

[boomer68]

Yes, I will have to practice with my .460 to build up recoil tolerance..lol

That should leave a mark !

Definitely the "go to" cartridge for all those prairie dogs over your way. :shock: Should be fun. :grin:

 

[NWBlacktail]

Wow. You'll definitely be the first guy on your block to have a 505 Gibbs. You don't see too many of those around.

Should stop an elk, or 16 liter diesel engines… :mrgreen:

Somehow my .375 now seems like a small bore...

I don't think I'd shoot it from the bench or prone! :shock: Standing or kneeling with a sling sounds a lot less painful. I can shoot a 375 all day from a standing position.

Nice! There is no replacement for displacement.

The mercury recoil option sounds really nice but I would have to brake it as well as they always come with a take off brake but i could be wrong! It would have to have a thread protector and a brake and 2400 fps does not sound that bad but with that size a bullet that reducer will probably help the fillings from flying too far ! You get the Safari ?

 

[boomer68]

I am thinking of using 600gr Woodleigh around 2150fps for a nice gentle shove....lol

:lol: if you can handle the 460 you are GTG :mrgreen: they had a Deluxe here in ABQ forever for 2400.00 bucks and even had to send it back to Weatherby as it had some handling marks as it sat around for a while!
