I wonder if the BBS could handle the 460 S&W pressures. That would be a nice rifle.

The Color Case Hardened 45 Colt is heavy because of the octagon barrel. I'd like to see the same CCH with a round barrel.

In 35 Remington, that would be sweet, and a regular checkered stock.
Not that carved up garbage they produce now.

I think the Long Ranger in .358 Win. All they would have to do is replace the barrel on the 308. The .358 is what the .35 Rem wants to be when it grows up.

A correct Mare's Leg in .45-70 You might only have 3 shots including one in chamber but they would be 3 cool shots and about all you would need close range! 405 gr. with just 13 gr. of Unique would be a relatively comfortable wallop.

They could easily do a 444 in a single shot.
Thought about doing it myself.
Buy a 44 mag., then ream it out to 444.
Would be a great cast bullet rifle, especially if the 44 has the 1 to 20 twist. ;)
