Now anybody on this forum have any of those Weatherby Big Bore Rifles? I am seriously contemplating using a Wby rifle to make myself a .500 A-Square out of, using a 600 grain bullet. I will change out the stock and go with a good laminated stock reinforced, keep the Weatherby stock for looks only. The gunsmith will also ream out that barrel and rechamber for the .500 A2 caliber. Also install express sights, cut barrel to 24 inches and port barrel.
I still must air some things out, like a big claw extractor and if one can put a 3 position safety on this rifle. Now the big problem may be the "Control Round Fed" action and putting a drop box in the stock and look proper.
