Good if you're hunting tanks.

Might be a bit much for elk.

I hate to say it, but I see that as self abuse. Pure insanity. There is no reason you would ever want to subject yourself to that rifle other then being able to say... I once (and I do mean once) shot a powerful rifle.

My feelings exactly. Who in their right mind wants to shoot a 2500gr bullet with what was it 270gr of powder? I assume that was smokeless powder. Cripes!!

I had to laugh. The last person that shot looks around like... Ok. Then said that they lied to him about the recoil. What did he think was going to happen when he fired that cannon?

Reminds me of a skit Jay Leno has called. "What did you think was going to happen?"

That's the guys from Knight rifles and the one who said you lied to me is Jeff Beane' son ( Jones Beane) I believe . The new Knight rifle owners.
