Wonder what his price is? I have seen them before in the past. But those triple slugs look like they would recoil nasty. 3-.520 ball, has to weigh in the 600gr at least. Ouch.

If I needed a bear back up while bow hunting in Kodiak island, this would be something I consider.

I am kinda wondering that too? I mean thats alot of recoil. I mean alot. But they claim thats in the pressure limits of a 3" magnum.

Holy cow, after cruching some numbers, it has a recoil between 458 Lott and 458 win mag. That would leave a mark.

I am not sure I would feel save shooting a 720gr projectile at 1350fps from my good ole 870 pump.

I am a little skeptical about thier penetration however. With that big ol flat nose, I can't this huge pentration.

It will pancake anything it hits that is for sure...not sure a gas system in a shotgun could buffer that..
