Hey Guys - just back from the range - had pleasure to welcome a friend with his K-gun in .450/.400 NE...

Got a call by a friend of mine that is a regular client at Brooklands in Save - after a decade of hunting Buffalo with a single shot 9,3x74R he pulled one off and got a said weapon. Anyway - lacking a range he asked me if I could accommodate him for a shot or two.

Plain Jane - clear and simple with a niice wood - the first impression was - Man She is heavy!!!

No wonder - look at them barrels

Still - the balance was nice, rifle felt compact. Regardless I am lefty - rifle fitted me great - sights (gold bead and a single fixed leaf) aligned asap...

We burned some 400 gr. Labor für Ballistik softs

Now bare with me guys please - the biggest I ever shot was a .458 Win in M70 back in 2006...

Followed with acouple of 286gr with my Merkel 140 in 9,3x74R:

Regardles the spooky weird stream of smoke going over my head at 2nd shot with a .400 (gas leak?) and a noticable difference before fly...

...one can't tell them apart at business end (wonder if Buff can)

Now the dust has settled - I can't believe what I am about to say - being a true Medium Bore Guy - I am sick, sick of feeling great about the kind recoil .400 gives...and all I know is that I want SOME MORE!
