Anybody heard or seen anything about this one? It's a short .50 caliber, about the same length as .45 ACP. Been around several years but, never heard of it till Today.

It's been around for awhile, more of a novelty item. Seems like a fun caliber to play with, it even comes with a conversion kit.

I have only seen a couple actual guns in the wild, and both were owned by guys who always had to own something that was biggest/coolest. Coincidentally both owned .338 Lapuas when they first came out many years ago and neither shot them much (one guy might not have ever shot the rifle he had built by our mutual rifle builder) that I knew of but they talked about them a lot.

The Tikka T3 in .308 Winchester is the Glock 19 of the rifle world.

Made for the "I carry a 45, because they don't make a 50 crowd".


Not the ones looking for a superior tool.


But, the ones compensating, or looking for a "look at me" option.

You nailed it right there. That's what it's for.
