    Scott, I noticed in the first slo-mo that the bolt handle lifted and then went back down during the recoil! Probably due to the torsion recoil. If that opens too far, you might get an unpleasant surprise. I would submit this footage to the manufacturer! Kind regards from New Zealand.

    Hey Scott when you did the side by side on the cz 550 it might be me but at 3:37 I believe there to be a decent crack starting just behind the bolt. Not sure if it's just a groove in the wood or something more serious, hope you're doing well.

    I've never seen you get tossed around before so I KNOW that thing has some recoil. the .577 was literally made to be the most powerful shoulder fired "portable" rifle ever built. They just grabbed a 577 nitro cartridge and said "why is this so small?". They then proceeded to add powder behind it until it was barely fire-able. and you still handled it like a champ!

      There was one guy in the video Scott refers to who was definitely a professional, because he handled with ease the same rifle that had been knocking the crap out of all the other guys.
      He just stood there with a wide stance and allowed his entire body to rock backward to better spread the punch over a wider surface area.
      People who know how to handle heavy caliber dangerous game rifles stand with one foot well forward of the other and basically turn their entire bodies into a big rocking chair to absorb the recoil.

I'm sure the gunpowder, primer and cast your own projectile has to be a lot cheaper than actually buying the cartridge? It's not like it's rocket science since you know exactly what type of gunpowder and how much you need. Reminds me older muzzleloaders, but there might be quite a bit of regulations against that I'm guessing?

If a bull had body armor on and you used a 50 BMG the 50 would just tear through the armor and hit the target whereas if you used a hunting round, when the bullet comes in contact with the armor it doesn't go through the armor but rather punches the armor into the target.

    That old T-Rex video is like 25 years old, that round has been wrecking people for a LONG time. Your handling of the recoil was just as impressive as the targets exploding. Would love to see if any ballistic armor could stop that bus.

      Idk. This is probably the hardest kick you'll get unless you make a light 50bmg bolt action or go really big like 20mm

      @@joshlower1 I could be wrong, but I believe once the bore size reaches 20mm, that weapon is now considered a cannon. .950 in metric is 24.13mm. The page I found with some info on that firearm said that the manufacturer had to get an exemption from ATF to have it not be labelled as a destructive device, in order to be able to sell it normally on the reatil market.
