Giles Whittome was commissioning some large-bore single-shot rifles on a falling-block action by John Shirley. Initially, the .577 NE version was called the "Elephant" and the .700 NE version was called the "Mammoth".

Don't know the Monica for the .600 NE.

There was a comprehensive article on these rifles in the very first issue of the British Rifleman magazine in 1995.

Ross Seyfried would simply HAVE to have one of these!!

Thanks Marrakai ,i think thats the same person who made the single shots i was thinking about .Its a pity in this day and age, the same CAN DO !!!!!!!! attitude does not exist anymore ,like in WW11..When it only took 38 days to engineer the DUKW ,or, put five, 6 cylinder engines into a sherman tank.What has happened to the American ''WE CAN DO IT ''!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! DO ANYTHING MENTALITY ????? pity really !
