Thank you for the welcome.

The doubling of 500/465 had to hurt! I am partial from my limited firing of the medium-big bores (Discounting .375 Belted... I shoot my Win 70 like most people shoot .22LR) to the .500 myself. The round has history and the stopping power of a frieght train on nitromethane.

My personal preference lies in the guns of 1900-1940 (as guns in a whole, from the N framed S&W's, to bolt actions, to what not). The doubles of the period have a stigma that a modern rifle just lacks. Their engraving (and as a rule I am not fond of embellishment at all) is beautiful and real.

--------------------
500 is a nice round number, either followed by "Nitro Express" or by "cubic inch displacement".
