This is what you call a big rifle

Wow, what in the world could that be used for? I mean, aside from Rkunsaw's squirrels ... too small to take out a vehicle, too big for sniping ...

I suppose it might be a case of "we made it because we could".
 

I need one of those .... and someone to pull the trigger for me.

I still have bruises from 7X57 falling block Ruger fired at a range in 1992.

... and I once briefly owned one of these ...

..... a Marlin 45/70 until I got tired from carrying the ammo. ;)
 
Members who served in the forces will know the recoil problems from weapons which have to be held against the shoulder.

I would not like to be holding it without the support visible in that clip.

It looks far too cumbersome to have any practical use.
 
$40 a bullet? back in my day you could knock off a nagging bitchin' missus and a dozen wet backs for 50 cents and still have change for the drive in movie. :lofl:
