    Whitworth's .500 Linebaugh

    He came today and I installed his Ultra Dot on the little SRH converted to .500 Linebaugh. Got it sighted and WOW! The steel pig at 100 went down so fast it was a blur.
    The little thing is like getting hit in the hand with a bat but is super accurate. Jack Huntington made a little jewel but you just don't shoot it much.

    Do not argue with idiots. They will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.

    If I remember correctly, the parent case was the 348 Winchester.

    I had to search for one. This is before the Ultra Dot but Whit should have a new one to post.
