Title: The 577 T-Rex
Post by: Steve4102 on December 27 2013 08:14:29 AM MST
  This has been around awhile, just thought I would share it with those that have not seen it before.

Anybody want one?

Not me. I like a good beating by recoil as much as the next guy, but that's a bit extreme.  :-\ Besides, my AR50 is comfortable to shoot, costs less to shoot than the T-Rex, and still has it beat by almost 5,000 ft/lbs of muzzle energy. :D

I have a cz 550 in 505 gibbs, havent shot it in awhile, I could say with the mercury recoil reducers in the stock and the weight, that it isnt bad recoil wise. But id be lying, a 525 gr bullet over 2000 fps is alot of juice.

Same vein as the 700 WTF.

Of course, the 700 WTF has about 3000 MORE lb-ft of energy at the muzzle. :P

I've seen the video, but always thought it was a 700NE being used.

Nope.  The 700 WTF is a good bit more velocity and energy than the 700 Nitro Express.
