Watch these people try to shoot a .577 T-Rex rifle.
Funny stuff
According to COTW, the .577 T-Rex uses a 750 grain bullet with 177 grains of RE 19 powder, for a MV of 2475 feet per second. ME = 10, 203 foot-pounds.
If this gun weighed
15 pounds, the recoil energy would be 153 foot-pounds. If the gun weighed a mere
10 pounds, recoil would be
230 foot-pounds!
No thanks! My .416 Rigby will kill anything on earth just as dead, just as quickly as this piece, and it won't hurt nearly as much! Whatgood is a rifle that leaves your hands after the first shot??
