12GA Rifle From HELL--

Visiting here to let folks know about our latest
big wildcat cartridge.First it was developed by Rob,John
and I over on AR big bore forum.It is a long brass case
made from bmg brass that we put a 12ga size rim on.Rob and
John used a Borchardt falling block action and I used a
Savage 210 bolt action shotgun that I put heavy barrel and
and stock on..In testing I got a 730 gr Dixie hard lead slug
out at 2700 fps.Got a 3/4 oz barnes sabot out at 3900.
Here is picture of our case next to a plastic 12ga shell,
which can also be fired in our chambers.Ed.

JShirley--Not that bad as gun is built heavy for testing,
25 lbs...It is really what is called a Bore Rifle.
Here is picture of gun.Ed.

Cordex--Haven't shot for groups yet, real bad weather.
Just chrono testing outside backdoor into a big bundle
of hardwood for backstop behind chrono.Gun has a scope
rail I can put on for accuracy testing.Warm weather project.Ed.

Preacherman--Good man-Thanks for combining threads,
and the better title..
Ryan--That is why Rob floated idea for this, being able to fire
shotgun rounds(plastic, paper, regular brass cases, our
long brass cases) thus not under ATF rules.They don't
even have to consider it or exempt it.. I have my 700HE, a
long belted 3.87 inch case, built from bmg brass,
that I put through the paperwork and got it registered as sporting case, which took 6 months.So I know the process.
bogie-- He has our number, but he'd want one like Rob
built on the Borchardt.
hksw--We should have ultimate magnum.Here is pic of the
Savage.Ed

Here is picture of Rob's Borchardt 12GA FH.
Nice looking work he did, the real classic
African style.Ed
