Are they legal to own?

Yes

Sourcing/making ammo is the hard part.

 

[mebiuspower]

Yeah where can one purchase the ammo?

 

[mebiuspower]

Double the energy of a 50BMG... I do want to know more... LOL.

Nowhere. But if someone had some brass, and a firearm for it... you could legally load some up and shoot it lol.

Darn it lol

Ammo is so scarce and expensive that machining brass and bullets is a fairly common route to feed them.

Any rounds that do turn up tend to have multicoloured tips, and qualify as prohibited ammunition, being APIT.

Wonder how a reloaded brass projectile compares for energy.

I would have thought they are limited edition rounds made for LGBT gun people.

Put an ad 'want to buy 14.5x114mm brass' Craigslist Moscow.

 

[sillymike]

At that point, might just as well get a 20mm

 

[mebiuspower]

14.5mm travels much further.

Those pesky dinos are running rampant around our country these days... Definitely gotta do something about that!

Imagine the looks you'd get if you brought one of these monster guns to your local range!

you might find a bit of brass laying around Syria at the moment. both sides have been using lots of big guns and ammo trying to take ground. it may be a bit tricky getting in and out of the country.

I've shot thousands of such rounds in a Romanian APC heavy machine gun.
The things can take down an A1 tank when fired at the tracks.
