[JD338]

Fotis,

Do it. There is no replacement for displacement!

[BK]

Oh, like you think somebody in THIS group is gonna say no?

 

[FOTIS]

Oh, like you think somebody in THIS group is gonna say no?

You nailed it!!!!!!!

 

[TRIC]

FOTIS, OK, I'll say NO.... It's not a lefty, ya can't shoot two BEES at the same time if ya don't have one that fits each hand :lol:

 

[cloverleaf]

Fotis, can you do a "border shift" with them rifles? :shock: Then you can just keep shooting with your right hand . You like them big cannons. How often you gonna come across a 416 Bee

 

[Greg Nolan]

You'll hate yourself in the morning if you don't. You can always trade her off later if it doesn't work out.(unlike wives). :shock:

 

[375hh1973]

Of course you should! What happens if squirrels invade and you only have your .458 Lott handy?

 

[DrMike]

You can never tell when one of those mad, man-eating mice will challenge you and you'll wish you had this in your arsenal. That's my vote.

 

[sask boy]

Go for Fotis, there are so many calibers and so little time to try them all

Blessings,
Dan

 

[FOTIS]

Just trying to figure out how practical this is. Got a 257 270 30-378 378 416. All beez. Will I ever use it?

 

[rjm158]

Saber-toothed prairie dog rifle? :mrgreen:

 

[FOTIS]

pretty much yeah~ :twisted:


Sometimes my enthusiasm takes over my logic!!!!!!!! :roll:

...ya ever hear of anyone surviving a "PDawg Attack"???

...when you empty all the above, you'll be darn thankful you've still got 3 in the .460...

 

[DrMike]

...ya ever hear of anyone surviving a "PDawg Attack"???

...when you empty all the above, you'll be darn thankful you've still got 3 in the .460...

Wow! It's hard to argue with science when it is combined with experience! :shock:

 

[BK]

In all seriousness, I know you hate overlap, so how much overlap do you have here? 400gr .416 @2700+/- versus 500gr .458 @2700+/-? What will the first do that the second wont? OK, maybe shoot a little flatter... never mind, just do it!

 

[filmjunkie4ever]

Pop you are such an enabler that its only fair that I cast my vote that you do get this gun. Still, I wouldn't get it because I have entirely no use for such a rifle or cartridge. But it is one impressive cannon. You never know when the dinosaurs or super zombies may rise up there in Wyoming to cause all kinds of havoc. In such a case, a 460 Weatherby would not be a bad choice at all.

Just my $0.02...

 

[Ridge_Runner]

Go for it, and then tells us how it feels to shoot something that can kick the lard out of momma's bisquits!
