Topic: .700 Dinosaur Killing Rifle Posted: 30-Dec-2011 at 19:56 |
Want to See a Customized .700 Caliber ‘Dinosaur Hunting’ Rifle in Action?
Elephant guns have been around since the 19th century, but this hand-held Howitzer takes high caliber rifles to another level.
Introducing the .700 Caliber, “Dinosaur Hunting WTF” rifle.
A member of the Cast Boolits firearms forums posted photos and video of this weapon and cartridges he built from scratch.
Everything you see below is customized craftsmanship, except the barrel. |

There are some squirrels around my house I would love to remove with this.

Would be much less cowardly to join the amry and hunt something that shoots back.

I once owned a Browning .406 lever action rifle. If you weren't standing just right, the recoil would screw you into the ground. What possible purpose would a .700 serve? The kick would make it very inaccurate.
There is nothing cowardly about hunting. I take it your a vegetarian. Which is an old Indian word for lousy hunter.
I do not hunt. I have the skills and the knowledge, I just choose not to. It has nothing to do with concience or conservation. If I could be certain that I was the only person out there carrying a rifle it might be different. No the animals don't shoot back, it's the hunters with no skills that I worry about.

If you have the skills, you don't need a cannon. This 12 year old boy used a pistol for this wild hog, which weighed in at just over a thousand lbs.
The animal was shot in Alabama.

You've got to be joking. I'm (mostly) a pacifist (but would enlist if my country is invaded). There's no fun in murdering people in wars of aggression for the benefit of big business, and even if i wanted to, i can't display the skins or heads of dead enemies on my wall
