Don't know if this has been posted before, but wow. Definitely falls into I have a bigger #### than yours syndrome. Check out the size compared to the Barret. Man, where is the winning numbers in the 649 when you need them

Hmmm nice toy if you're in the States, there's a bunch of guys in Canada with PTRD's that look pretty nice in their gunrooms too.

 

[CanAm]

We may have some rifles arriving soon in 20x110HS. It hurts my shoulder just thinking about it.

---FAR easier to own up here, than down there. Up here, small is scary, down there, big is scary. Anything over 50 cal is a Destructive Device, has to federally registered, pay a $200 transfer tax when bought/sold, you have to be fingerprinted, and no new ones can be imported since 1968, although new ones can be built in the US. A PTRD sells for $1500 to $1800 here, down there, I have heard $10,000 !!!!!

You are right on the second point. Mine is looking nice, collecting dust for the 2 years I have had it.

The croatian beast? If ammo wasn't a concern it'd be a hell of a rifle to have.

 

[Hi-Standard]

How much penetration would you get on a yote with that? Damn I forgot we're limited to .22 centrefire for yotes

 

[Terry Perkins]

Very impressive! How is the accuracy at 1K? Or is it for making big holes in the countryside?

Fair enough, but how fast do you think the state dept is going to get involved with regards to prohibiting exports of ammo and reloading supplies to Kanada?

 

[tootall]

Thats what the other ~190 countires are for!
If the US will not export stuff, then we get CanAm and others to sniff around elsewhere for ammo and guns.

Hey Terry,

Do you think it would conform to the saftey template at Cedar Springs? It would take a very brave butt marker to pull for that beast.

Bob,

We would have to put buoys out to the middle of the lake to define the overshoot area. Passing feighters take cover.

I wonder if A-Zoom makes a snap cap for it yet...

 

[Pure Energy]

I think this was brought up before and the guys in the know said the .50 cal has much better ballistics and accuracy.

"5th wheel/gooseneck pickup truck mounts available!"

...... I'm moving ......

 

[X-fan]

Bullet energy doesn't mean much but 38,700 Lbs/ft has got to be something serious!

20 mm (.787"??) and 1600 grains????!! I think I'm in love!

 

[jdman]

that is some crazy ####!!! talk about torture on the body though.
