DON'T TAKE A DRINK OF ANYTHING UNTIL AT LEAST 15 SECONDS HAS RUN OFF, if you do not listen to this advice you computer screen is in imminent danger, DAMHIK.   Britchri10 Posted on Tuesday, March 22, 2011 - 07:18 pm:        OK. Funny stuff. But, not one shooter is actually "leaning into" the rifle. All the recoil shock seems to be thru their shoulders. (NB: I only watched the first 2:30 of the clip). That is not how I was taught to hold a weapon. (But, being a Brit...what do I know about firing a rifle) Chris C   Just_ziptab Posted on Tuesday, March 22, 2011 - 07:38 pm:        If I remember right,that gun was some sort of Super Elephant gun in .577 caliber(?) Some what like shooting a 50 BMG in an 15 pound rifle. My BMG weighs 46 pounds and with muzzle brake,is pleasant to shoot................except for the muzzle blast shock wave.   Sifo Posted on Tuesday, March 22, 2011 - 07:45 pm:        Funny stuff there. I wonder what that gun was???   Joshinga Posted on Tuesday, March 22, 2011 - 07:53 pm:        I believe it a .700 nitro express   Aesquire Posted on Tuesday, March 22, 2011 - 08:39 pm:        .577 T-Rex. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/.577_Tyrannosaur http://www.accuratereloading.com/577tyr.html http://a-squareco.com/ More recoil than I, Personally, want to feel. The guys in the video, ( and it's been around for years ) don't know how to shoot a big gun. Shooting from the Bench is silly, as you can't ride out the kick as you can from offhand. ( standing ) I've shot a BMG .50, ( even more kick than the T-Rex ) a few .375 magnums, and a couple of .416 & .458's. None hurt as much as a .357 magnum 125 grain police load out of a Titanium & alloy snubby small frame revolver. Left bigger bruises though.   Britchri10 Posted on Tuesday, March 22, 2011 - 09:30 pm:        .357+ handguns are definitely two handed weapons. Rife-wise: anything .306+, you need to lean in to. (The 7.62 FN/FAL will knock you down on semi-auto/single shot if you don't respect it. DAMHIK) If the calibers quoted for the rifle in the video are correct these guys need to go to school before someone gets hurt. Chris C   Joshinga Posted on Tuesday, March 22, 2011 - 10:24 pm:        six of one half a dozen of the other it doesn't matter. A weapon of that size in the hands of a untrained person is a recipe for bad things to happen.   Cityxslicker Posted on Wednesday, March 23, 2011 - 02:21 am:        bump stock ? On the one hand I am worried about them shooting that thing and the round it levels out.... but I do like that it essentially disarms the shooter after use !   Pwnzor Posted on Wednesday, March 23, 2011 - 08:46 am:        Watching these guys firing a large caliber rifle while leaning back, or standing straight up without spreading their feet or really any kind of preparation makes me think of one thing. This video is fodder for the anti-gun lobby. Stupid. Funny, for a minute... but then it's just stupid.
