Maybe just comes down to "wanting" a classic .50 for the sheer enjoyment of mastering the horsepower & having something few other shooters have? Not for everybody, but so what…..lots of good fun in a .500 Jeffery or .505 Gibbs

After all, by your logic why not just a .375 H&H…..it will kill everything a .416 (or ridiculously juiced up .405 Winchester) would be used on.

Mike you have hit the nail right on the head there mate. I have hit a problem though. The maker cant get a 500 j barrel in time for my hunt in April but has been offered a 505 gibbs actioned barrel. Just waiting for pics and details. I sure hope its a double square bridge. Failing everything I might just go with a 450 Rigby.
