mag-man Posted June 7, 2006 Report Share Posted June 7, 2006 barrell aint thick enough to be a 600!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baldrick Posted June 7, 2006 Report Share Posted June 7, 2006 Seen that vid before. I would say it's a .454 Casull or another heavy calibre handgun round, possibly the .500 S&W or a .50 AE? A .600NE would seriously damage every joint in your arm/shoulder if you tried a handgun loaded in that calibre, even if you overcame the engineering aspects of getting a 3"+ cartridge case into a handgun action . In a 17lb double rifle the recoil from a 600 is enough to really shake you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deako Posted June 7, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 7, 2006 The biggest 'sporting' rifle I have used on a reasonably regular basis was a BRNO in .458wm. I really didn't like shooting that thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wookie Posted June 7, 2006 Report Share Posted June 7, 2006 At least the guy was big enough to stand a chance of stopping the recoil! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baldrick Posted June 7, 2006 Report Share Posted June 7, 2006 The large (.300-400"-ish) Weatherby Magnum calibres are meant to give the most punishing recoil, rather than the NE loads. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Claytons Guns Posted June 11, 2006 Report Share Posted June 11, 2006 If you read the thread under the vid, the guy who own's the pistol says it is a 600NE. I'd like to have a go at one of thoses Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baldrick Posted June 11, 2006 Report Share Posted June 11, 2006 I stand corrected. A link for the photo of the pistol in that movie attached, from the owner's posts on www.nitroexpress.com: http://forums.nitroexpress.com/showflat.ph...=true#Post33850 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dunkield Posted August 17, 2006 Report Share Posted August 17, 2006 Not so. (I think that's how wars start isn't it?) The T Rex vids have been doing the rounds for years, and are taken from here: Accurate reloding videos Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evilv Posted August 22, 2006 Report Share Posted August 22, 2006 That was a bizzare video... What would anyone need a gun like that for? As for recoil, I once hired a reproduction post American Civil War trapdoor Springfield chambered for the .45/70 cartridge. It was a very lightweight carbine, maybe about six pounds. First I used a few black powder reloads that were nice and light, about 50 gains of ffg b powder, and then I bought a box of 25 .45/70 nitro factory loads..... What HORRIBLE experience with such a lightweight rifle. I fired six and had a headache for two days. It was like getting punched in the face. I gave free shots to other people and none would fire mor than two or three, even the headbangers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wookie Posted August 22, 2006 Report Share Posted August 22, 2006 Reminds me of the first time I shot a .357 Magnum in Florida... Standing next to it when someone shot was like being slapped in the face, but it was a baby to shoot. Didn't Webley used to make a .455 revolver for naval issue during the inter-war period?
