Hi Guys,
Just wanted to post alittle info on Mr. Giles H. Whittome's (Mastodon) .2 Bore.
I've been calling him at least once a year to hear the progress on this rifle, only because I'm very interested in it, can't afford one yet !. I was told by Mr. Whittome the rifle was scheduled to be completed sometime in 2007. I also have bought a dummy .2 bore round off Him back around 2002 / 2003, I can't remember the exact year but its a beast ! The shell is 4 1/2" long, the lead flat nosed bullet weighs 2500 grs. with a diamiter of 1.052". The balistics that He gave me were 1250 f.p.s. at 8,675 ft. lbs at the muzzle for a Taylor K.O. value of 469 ! The head-stamp is simple ( G.H.W. 2 ). I have a polaroid picture of the barreled action and it looks truly massive. I'm sure that when completed, this rifle will be like no other !!!!!
I hope you all find this as fascinating as I do !
Take Care,
Chris Openbrier.
