    Nothing elaborate. Our range is in a tourist area so tourists will come by and try shooting. The 50 is one option for them.

    Rifles chambered in The 378 WBY have never been popular. Unlike the Ruger. The Ruger is the perfect balance of power, velocity and rifle options.

    If rifles in 375 Ruger were available like 300WM it would sell great. The corporate stores don't carry them, the Savage/Mossberg/Howa chambered ones are rarely in stock anywhere in Canada. It's a very flexible cartridge like the H&H, but shorter (fits in more actions). I have both. I will probably keep the nicest rifle. That means the CZ in 375H&H, rather than the Mossberg. 2X the purchase cost though. The Mossberg is light; without a scope top loads would be lively.

    That is some genuine badassery right there. I doubt I'll ever be able to afford one of those babies. RESPECT.

    If you have a job, you can afford anything- if you want to. Put a bit aside every payday.

    And, while I am not normally an advocate of sharing anything, a 50BMG rifle would be a great opportunity for a few buddies to go in on to purchase.

    Would you go 26 if given the choice?
