Germans big bore..11.2* 60 and 11.2*72
      16/04/09 06:36 AM



Hi all

I am seeking some information on the medium big boreīs from Germany. The 11.2*60 and itīs more powerful brother, 11.2*72.

I know the more powerful was also named .444 Schueler.

But, are there some here who use them today? Or have done it?

How is it to find brass today and load for them? Kind of bringing them back to life.

I know that the 11.2*72 was/is the same as the .416 Rigby, but why is it not more used today? With good bulletīs, I am sure it is a great Buff caliber today to.

Not so sure about the 11.2*60 for Buff, but for smaller deer or plains game in Africa.

The idea of a mauser in one of these "lost" calibers, is something I find very interesting.


All help and information is good.

--------------------
Cheers all, Vegard_dino
