...I was looking for something a bit more high-end; I know that one is pretty affordable but it's just not in my league.

When I worked for Westley Richards there was a bolt action rifle unfinished and in the white gathering dust in a corner, it was a .600 nitro express that someone had ordered and apparently found the recoil unacceptable. I can't remember what it weighed or what happened to it.

I saw a utube of some guy that put a 600 on a Contender frame. Being a pistol there was no way you could hold on to it!
Saw another video of what I believe was a 700 and a bunch of middle eastern guys couldn't hang onto in a rifle.
12ga slugs are more than enough for me ! I had a Marlin bolt gun, rifled barrel that I ported to reduce recoil, I called it The 729 Pachyderm Pounder!

That was Kentucky Ballistics and it was a 500NE. And you're right, it broke 🤣

We had a J Manton double 8 bore hammer rifle at the shop recently for sale . It was a consignment the owner wanted to clear 25K . I’d loved to have bought it but it was about 8k overpriced . An 8 or 10 bore paradox or fully rifled gun would be awesome .

It might be fun for a while, but PillHer would hurt me more for spending that much than the gun ever could.
