It's fairly energetic, though not ridiculous. Kicks way less than Gunner's .577 It also weighs 9lbs 2 oz as shown, with scope & mounts. The .475 Turnbull is a the .50-110 necked to .475. Case capacity is about 5% less than a .458 mag. So basically it's a 9 lb .470 Nitro

Tex, you can make and honest cartridge out of that with Lord Black. Ranch, I dunno. I'm not into genealogy and stuff like that. Loaded some rounds yesterday and day before. Emptied a bottle of Swiss 1.5 in the process. I know why the old mountain men were so tuff. I can put 50 rounds of Hornet in my pocket and not hardly know it's there. 50 rounds of BPCR ammo...it's a different story. Need a belt AND suspenders to keep my pants up. 100 rounds loaded...I need a farkin' horse. Or a mule.
I am..........disturbed.

Oh, you're talking about direct fire targets. Was wondering which zip code actually.
