Yeah, Puff the Magic Dragon would be Sucking Chest Wound the Dying Dragon after he runs into you with that one. I still think a 20 or 28 gauge smoothbore barrel would be good for that one. A modified Mossberg or Remington 20 gauge barrel with screw in choke tubes would make a sweet bird and squirrel gun out of that. Then switch back to the .50 tube for the big uns. That stock is beautiful, looks more like mahogany than walnut. I gotta get one of those. I'm thinking about selling all of my springers, except for my favorite ones, to help pay for one of those Dragon Slayers. I have a 909 Big Bore, and it's sweet, but I still want a .50, especially since I have 2 .50 cal muzzle loaders and bullet/ball molds for them. I'm telling ya, that Maxi Hunter would be a sweet slug for one of those.

BTW, how's the recoil on that one? Seems like it has to have at least some kick, considering the weight of the projectile.

: Pretty good jolt with heavy slugs.

Round ball {182grain}only picks up the muzzle an inch or so. The Lee cast .500 S&W slug in soft lead casts about 460grains and lifts the muzzle about 3", with a scope eye style jolt . . .

Tim and J I don't know if it is of value to you . But the place where I buy my lead has 50 cal. .502 340 gr. r n f p and .512 -.515 425 gr fp. slugs. They are lead with a moly coat on them .

: I have to size them down to .495"
: 3n00n July 27, 2008, 04:37:01 PM

Hard slugs are really rough to run through thesizer. Even the S&W slug has to go through a .500", .498" then the.495" die twice, once in each direction. That's why I don't shoot a whole lot of them, because it's alot easier to plink with ball . . . but the big slugs sure do a great job for energy tranfer.Moving a 498grain slug as big as your thumb at 660fps, critters justwanna take a nap for some reason . . .

I did not see that you were under sized a little and I can see that would be a lot of work .Marvin
