Big guns

Fired a 600 Nitro Express ..ONE time..Didn't need to set her off again..and the ammo was like 80 bucks each round. It was, of course, a Holland and Holland and weighed about 15 lbs if I remember right. Think the bullets weighed on the order of 2 ounces..something like 900 gr. Impressive and pretty useful if shooting Tyranosaurus Rex.
