You were pushing the .458 SOCOM hard back then (2013).

It WAS BASED ON A REVERSE ENGINEERED REAMER that you had PTG make.

That model is long gone from WC now... with the .458 HAM'R replacing it (which I am totally OK with BTW (JUST DON'T STEAL MARTY's 458S DESIGN!!!)), but to claim you had any positive influence in the development of the cartridge is horse chit.

I will not argue with you Bill... I bought two of your TR-458K-SR16S-14 .458 SOCOM Build Kit, 14.7" Recon SRs back in 2013.

After learning the TRUTH about of the reverse engineering... AND having major drama with your chamberings I disposed of them.

You were lambasted on 458socomforums.com for this crap... as well as you AR-15 Africa Safari nonsense... LOL.

NON LEGIT .458 SOCOM reamers

Build guns... build great guns... but don't steal valor!

No reverse engineering went on, we only changed a diameter dimension (.533" to .537" below the neck) so factory new unsized Starline .536" cases would fit the chamber!!!

There is NO bad blood between Marty, Tony or I, ask them

What's this crap about .458 and Africa??? My grandson and I both shot Cape Buff and other game with SOCOMS.
