My uncle made big bore rifles up to .700 Nitro Express. One of his clients used a .460 to bag his polar bear.

I shot a .585 when I was younger. Would probably break something if I tried it now.

wow,the .700 is a rare and expensive rifle.1000 grain bullet at 2000fps,the recoil must have been brutal.
