[QUOTE="James Jones, post: 111644, member: 8843"] I gave the same type thought to a 50 cal made on the RUM brass that would be cut down so the whole loaded round would feed from a Rem Long action. I figured that at around 90grs of powder that if the pressure was raised that one could get a modest velocity I was thinking around 2200fps and with such a great bore to powder volume ratio that maybe some of the faster powders could be used. Hell a 750gr bullet launched at even 2000fps would produce more energy than any 7mm-33 cal in a conventional action. Sounds like a hell of an idea Kirby but would it be legal in "Kalifornia" [/QUOTE]
