While I have a Marlin GG in .45-70 and a Blaser R93 Safari in .375, this is my "big" bore, a Roger Ferrell .458 Lott on an MRC action and a Micky Supreme. Gdv

My largest big bore is this Ugartechea 12 gauge slug gun. Then the 416 Rigby, and the 9.3x62's, and though a bit under .35, my recently acquired Walther 8x57 Mauser.

Evil, I like the sharps, I would give my enemies right eye for one but just cant justify it.
With one of those I might have to put in for a buffalo hunt to use it on.

Tony,
I really like that 8x57!!!!! Thanks. I snagged it a couple of weeks ago. It is in near new condition. And it is a fine match to its little brother, the 7x57 on the left.

I do not believe that they do. I have only seen one other like it a few months after I bought this one.

Thanks for the info. I bet that big 12 bore is a hoot to shoot.

Depends on what you consider a BIG bore. I think it starts at about 25 MM.

Well, it's a very well made rifle and I like it but I'd sell it if you're serious.
