Found this today, amusing, but can't say if real or not.
Seems there are several different being fired.

Yep it has been around for a number of years. I think they made it to tear hunters limbs off so you can't hunt anymore or to give you such a flinch that you could never hit anything again. Very Happy

I've had a few people shoot my 45-70 with full power loads and get the scope in the eye etc and swear they'll never shoot it again, what do you suppose would happen if they shot one of those......... scared

I'd have to run for my life, after they picked themselves up off the ground of course!!! Shocked

Watched a tall lanky friend get taken neatly out from under his hat one day by a .460. Reminded me of Elmer Fudd... just sittin' there spinnin' 'round and 'round... hat was pretty animated too..............

Yep a friend of mine got a broken collar bone after taking a shot with a .460. Surprised

Yep, one of the guys involved in the web site owns a gun/outfitting store here in town.
Nice guy, and his dad, who used to work "for the Government", has a real interesting yarn about how he got thrown into a thornbush by a rhino. Very Happy

They left out the one where the shooter lets go of the rifle, and it breaks the glass in one of the windows. Also "Klaus", I think it was , commenting on the parentage of the weapon..."Ach, Du Saue!" ROFL

I wouldn't shoot that thing, even for the bragging rights! Shocked
