Try this one!

Try this one!

You out did yourself with this one. The bullet on the left I have no idea, "is it even a real cartridge"?, The next two look like the 30 Herrett blown out to 50 caliber and the last one is a 50 Beowulf???????????

Try this one!

Thats a .14 Flea on the left, then a .50-.70 with .50 ball round, then a .50 cal Amax 750 grain bullet, then a Beowulf round

[stanc]

That's...a .50-.70 with .50 ball round, then a .50 cal Amax 750 grain bullet...

No fair. You peeked!

First and last are right. Middle two, not so much. (Hint, both subsonic) Awesome that you got the .14 Flea, not many know about it. 50-70 brass is much longer than Beowulf brass. Yes, I know I ID'd it as a .50-70 in an old pic, because thats what the parent case was and I was asked not to say more than that. It's been on the market for a while now, so I'm not restricted by that.

5070 in the picture ID doesn't mean anything, one of those weird coincidences!

.50-70 Whisper?

.50-70 Whisper?

That would be too easy!

[stanc]

Of course it would. Sure looks like it, though.

That's interesting. The 50 Whisper was based on the .338 Lapua case, and I wasn't aware that JDJ had done a 50-70 based Whisper. The base case in my phote IS .50-70, and maybe there was parallel development or JDJ bought the company out making the cartridge I saw. I was told it was a .50 Jarrett, but when I Google that, I don't see anything but a video of a guy shooting a rifle. The cartridge I saw was for a Contender handgun.

I guess credit goes to both of you!

I'd still like to know "what's up with BANG BANG"?????

Me too.

That seems to be sort of a signature line. It's at the end of nearly all of his posts: http://www.65grendel.com/forum/searc...st&showposts=1

I dunno, Bill. I just took a wild guess, Googled ".50-70 Whisper" and those pics came up.

Bang bang....my baby shot me down.

Looking at the 280 Enfield, it looks like the Grendel is slightly scaled down from it.

Here is my offering to the thread:
