Project Description
!!!!!SOLD!!!!! Now for something totally different! This is a full size .750 Nitro Express cartridge. 3 7/16″ long overall, 3 17/32″ case length, .745 diameter projectile that weighs 2.6 ounces! No primer or powder, but it takes a Browning .50 caliber machine gun cartridge primer. Laser headstamped by me when I worked for Imperial Miniature Armory with a YAG laser. My boss back then, Joel Morrow, had a double rifle made in this caliber, and as far as I know it is the only rifle ever made in this caliber. He was going to use it on elephants. Never happened. The cartridge case & projectile were made by Barnes Bullets in Utah. Initial test loads in a test barrel showed recoil to be eight times a .460 Weatherby Magnum! It was then worked down with a lighter projectile & powder charge, but I don’t know what the final results were. Only a small handful of cases & projectiles were made. !!!!!SOLD!!!!!
I have another, unheadstamped with a dummy primer & loose projectile. !!!!!SOLD!!!!!
