Re: 505 GIBBS MAUSER - resizing .510 bullets & reduced loads

Well, I got the first of the "Magnum" magazine back issues that I have on order. Magnum is a magazine published in South Africa. This one is the July 1994 issue. There is a very interesting detailed article written by Carl Labuschagne entitled; "Make Mine a Turnbolt" where he discusses his Professional Hunter preference for a bolt action rifle, rather than a double rifle, for Dangerous Game.

I also found another reference to Carl Labuschagne in a book called; "The Greatest Quotes from Sporting Literature" by Chuck Wechsler & Jim Casada.

This book is full of famous quotes by famous men. Neatly tucked between the quotes from Henry David Thoreau, and Rudyard Kipling, was Carl Labuschagne's quote. .... {b}"Make Mine a Turnbolt"[/b} and the book references the July 1994 issue of Magnum Magazine as the source.

I have 5 other back-issues of this magazine coming. I'm hoping to get more insight into the man, and my rifle.
