Sorry. DF Brews nailed it.
510 Whisper.
338 Lapua case chopped off in half then a neck/shoulder is machined in.
Just so I don't sound like a lunatic, here is the joke. My first thought reading this thread was, "Whomever Hoser sends his brass to must be special." haha
Quote:
The Pope goes to New York. He is picked up at the airport by a limousine. He looks at the beautiful car and says to the driver, ''You know, I hardly ever get to drive. Would you please let me?''
The driver is understandably hesistant and says, ''I'm sorry, but I don't think I'm supposed to do that.''
But the pope persists, ''Please?''
The driver finally lets up. ''Oh, all right, I can't really say no to the pope.''
So the pope takes the wheel, and boy, is he a speed demon! He hits the gas and goes around 100 mph in a 45 zone. A policeman notices and pulls him over. The cop walks up and asks the pope to roll down the window. Startled and surprised, the young officer asks the pope to wait a minute. He goes back to his patrol car and radios the chief.
Cop: ''Chief, I have a problem.''
Chief: ''What sort of problem?''
Cop: ''Well, you see, I pulled over this guy for driving way over the speed limit but it's someone really important.''
Chief: ''Important like the mayor?''
Cop: ''No, no, much more important than that.''
Chief: ''Important like the governor?''
Cop: ''Wayyyyyy more important than that.''
Chief: ''Like the president?''
Cop: ''More.''
Chief: ''Who's more important than the president?''
Cop: ''I don't know, but he's got the pope DRIVING for him!''
So for the ignorant among us (raises hand) what's the name of the round you're building?

I will get some pics and videos if the rifle up soon. Uncle Sam has had me flying airplanes a bunch these past few weeks. I need some down time to load ammo.
Not my pic below. Stolen from somewhere.

How far can it reach before your muzzle begins to interfere with your FOV? [Coffee]
We loaded up a dummy that looked something like that a couple of years ago using a 750 gr A-max and a 50 cal pistol case. It wasn't nearly as well executed and certainly wasn't real. Called it 500 blackout. That looks like fun to shoot.
